Resolution that would block tariffs passes 51-48 in Senate, in vote that shows Republican unease over president’s plans

Of course this is DOA in the House or a veto, and it’s symbolic ass covering etc etc. What sticks out to me is the McConnell vote. He did not have to do that, but he did. Interesting.
He has already announced his retirement, he can do whatever the fuck he wants now.
It might also have to do with the bourbon industry…
Of course, but that doesn’t mean he had to
hes craven, he plans for the long term, im guessing most republican toes the party line because people like mcconnel controlled the senate through his superpac.
