Washington, D.C. — The one thing we know about Tim Ryan is that he follows wherever the political winds are blowing. As a 20-year career politician, Tim Ryan’s been all over the map on almost every issue.
The latest is China tariffs. On Thursday, Senate nominee Tim Ryan sent a letter demanding President Biden keep China tariffs in place. The next day, Ryan told people to “see [his] record.” Not his smartest move. His record shows that he badmouthed these same China tariffs when President Trump was in charge.
- On June 2, 2019, Ryan criticized Trump’s tariff strategy saying the President did not have a “big strategy.”
- During the 2020 Democratic Primary, Ryan called Trump’s tariffs “abominable” and said they should be “revised immediately.”
- In September 2019, Ryan called the way Trump had imposed tariffs “nonsensical.”
- Ryan said President Trump’s tariffs on China cost American farmers, manufacturers and working families billions of dollars.
Two-faced Tim always thinks he can have it both ways, but he can’t. How are voters supposed to believe him when he constantly changes his tune when it’s politically convenient for him?
