Seth Moulton: ‘Wielding Tariffs Like a Cudgel’ Only ‘Hurts American Families’

RUSH EXCERPT:

MOULTON: “You have to have a conference of strategy and I’m not saying the tariffs shouldn’t be an option on the table, but that means that we actually build our alliances in the pacific. I’m calling for using the nato model in the pacific to help contain China and North Korea. The president has been doing the exact opposite. He’s been undermining our allies across the globe. It means using institutions like the wto. That’s not perfect, it’s not going to solve every problem, but every case that the Obama Administration has brought before the wto against China, every single one has been decided — has been in our favor. If the president is simply lying when he says the wto doesn’t work. We need to have a conference of strategy for China, because they are a massive threat. But just wielding tariffs like a cultural because it makes the president look tough, that only hurts American families.”
