New Polls From CNN And Detroit News Show 64% Of Michigan Voters Disapprove Of Trump’s Trade War With Canada—Michigan’s Largest Trading Partner
Michigan Hit Hardest Over Trump Tariffs, Estimated Loss “Of $5,619 Per Household, The Highest In The Nation.”
Rogers Continues To Support Trump’s Trade War With Canada, Calls It “Necessary”
MICHIGAN – New polls from CNN and Detroit News show the extreme unpopularity of Trump’s trade war among Michiganders. In both polls, 64% of voters disapprove of Trump’s trade war with Canada, including by a 5-to-1 margin of Michigan likely voters in the CNN poll.
Despite the clear opposition from Michiganders, corrupt politician Mike Rogers has maintained his unwavering fealty to Trump. POLITICO recently reported that despite all of the pain it’s causing Michigan families, Mike Rogers supports Trump’s trade war and views it as “necessary.”
“Michiganders can’t afford to pay for the vanity project that is Trump’s tariff war, and they know Mike Rogers won’t say or do a thing about it,” said Abdul. “Mike Rogers is in Dallas instead of Detroit today because he cares more about serving Trump than serving Michiganders. As Senator, I’ll fight unfair trade deals that prioritize the billionaires and corporations instead of working people.”
Michigan is reeling from Trump-Vance price hikes:
- Michigan families have lost $5619 on average from Donald Trump’s trade wars—more than any state in the entire country—which might be why Donald Trump is more than 20 points underwater in the state.
- Rogers has championed Trump’s reckless tariffs, which he has called “masterful” and “an absolute win,”
- Rogers has repeatedly dismissed Michiganders’ concerns about tariff price hikes. In response to concerns about tariffs spiking the cost of groceries, Rogers said “Oh my gosh, coffee went up. You know, horror.” In response to concerns about how tariffs were spiking costs for Michigan families and businesses, Rogers said “The shoe is going to pinch every once in a while.”
