The U.S. House of Representatives, led by Republicans, has passed a bill to end tariffs on Canada, originally imposed by Trump. This move highlights growing concerns over the White House's economic policies as midterm elections approach, with the cost of living being a key issue. Despite Trump's veto threat, the bill saw six Republicans defect and nearly unanimous Democratic opposition, reflecting the fragile state of Trump's majority in the House.
The Republican Party faces challenges in maintaining control of Congress, exacerbated by Trump's declining approval ratings on economic and immigration matters. Trump has warned of political repercussions for Republicans who oppose him on tariffs, underscoring the internal party tensions.
