Senate majority leader Thune: I hope Trump tariffs are a means to an end

It’s unclear whether Congress will try to assert its power over tariffs

“I’m hoping they’re a means to an end and not the end itself. I think they’re hopefully temporary — designed to achieve a specific result,” he told reporters.

He added: “Nothing happens in a vacuum. There’s always a reaction to actions that are taken.”

These comments don’t exactly scream that there is a coherent strategy within the Republican party. It sounds more like Congress is struggling with the same uncertainty as everyone else.
