Trump tried not to disrupt the economy before the midterms. He’s about to go on a rampage.

Voters should send a very clear message on Tuesday that they want the United States to stop fighting wars – both military and economic. President Donald Trump he is unlikely to listen.

Trump still wants to return tariffs to close to where they were before the Supreme Court struck down much of them in February, according to nine current and former officials, congressional aides and industry representatives. He has drawn up trade measures that could lead to new tariffs in the weeks after the election. At the same time, the Pentagon is sending more forces to the Middle East. Asset suggested that further measures would be taken in Iran.

Republican and industry leaders do not believe the president will slow down his agenda because of his party’s poor performance in the midterms. On the contrary, it could speed things up.

“It is possible that the situation will get worse, more tumultuous, more unpredictable and tariffs higher,” said an industry lobbyist who, like others cited in this article, was granted anonymity to speak candidly.
