BREAKING: Senate Votes to Sabotage President Trump’s Canadian Tariff Policy With Four Republicans Casting the Decisive Yes Votes

A handful of Senate Republicans joined Democrats to vote this evening on legislation rescinding tariffs on Canadian goods, a startling rebuke of President Trump.

The final vote was 51-48. Here are the four Republicans who handed the Democrats an undeserved victory and snubbed the President:

Susan Collins of Maine

Mitch McConnell of Kentucky

Lisa Murkowski of Alaska

Rand Paul of Kentucky

As Fox News previously reported, leftist Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) sponsored a joint resolution that would terminate the national emergency Trump declared regarding illicit drugs and Canada. Trump has argued that tariffs are necessary to curb the drug flow and rebalance the unfair trading relationship between the two countries.

While passage does not mean the tariffs evaporate, considering the House is unlikely to ever vote on the measure, voting against Canadian tariffs handed the Democrats a powerful talking point and humiliated Trump in the process.

Only four GOPers were needed to join all 47 Democrats in backing Kaine for the resolution to win approval in the Senate since Republicans only hold a 53-47 majority. McConnell, Paul, Murkowski, and Collins signaled before the vote they were ready to defy Trump.

Paul was a co-sponsor of Kaine’s resolution, while Murkowski told Politico she would vote for it. The outlet also reported Collins was “very likely” to join them while McConnell had repeatedly criticized Trump’s tariffs.

In a Truth Social post this morning, Trump demanded the four Republicans back off and hold Canada accountable for allowing fentanyl to flow freely into America. He added that by flirting with joining the left, the four GOPers were playing with the lives of ordinary Americans and right into the hands of the Democratic Party.

He further vowed to veto the measure if it ever reached his desk.
