0

Week of May 12th –

This week, Senator Braun offered a Main Street entrepreneur’s take on President Trump’s trade negotiations with China, weighed in on the Democrats’ smears of Attorney General Bill Barr, and introduced two straightforward solutions to help combat the opioid crisis raging in Indiana.

Senator Braun joined CNBC’s flagship morning program, Squawk Box, to offer his take on President Trump’s trade negotiations with China as a Main Street entrepreneur. 

“Democrats’ public vilification of Barr is a glimpse into how Holder’s “Fast and Furious” scandal or Loretta Lynch’s tarmac summit with Bill Clinton might have played out without the air support of a breathless liberal media unwilling to portray Obama officials as anything but selfless public servants and Trump officials as anything but super-villains.”

Senator Braun joined Shannon Bream for Fox News @Night to discuss President Trump’s tariffs, the effect on Hoosier farmers, and why a deal with China is long overdue.

“President Trump recognizes that we have one opportunity to address our trade imbalances with China, and his tax relief and deregulation efforts have finally given us a booming American economy that can withstand a little pain for the greater good.

“Where politicians have kicked the can down the road, President Trump is taking action.”
