The Senate on Tuesday voted 52-48 to nuke President Trump’s 50% tariffs on Brazil.
House Speaker Mike Johnson will not a hold a vote on the measure so the Senate’s vote was a waste of time.
President Trump would never sign the measure into law anyway.
Five RINO Republicans voted with the Democrats to repeal the tariffs on incoming materials:
Rand Paul (KY)
Thom Tillis (NC)
Susan Collins (ME)
Lisa Murkowski (AK)
Mitch McConnell (KY)

Earlier this year the Senate voted to nuke President Trump’s Canadian tariffs.
RINOs Murkowski, Collins McConnell and Rand Paul voted to repeal those tariffs.
President Trump is currently in the Supreme Court fighting to keep his tariffs in place after a court said Trump exceeded his authority.
The US Supreme Court last month agreed to fast-track President Trump’s tariff case.
In May, The Court of International Trade in New York said President Trump exceeded his authority to impose tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977 (IEEPA).
The DOJ immediately appealed the federal appeals court’s ruling on Trump’s tariffs.
President Trump ripped the judges over the summer.
“ALL TARIFFS ARE STILL IN EFFECT! Today a Highly Partisan Appeals Court incorrectly said that our Tariffs should be removed, but they know the United States of America will win in the end. If these Tariffs ever went away, it would be a total disaster for the Country. It would make us financially weak, and we have to be strong. The U.S.A. will no longer tolerate enormous Trade Deficits and unfair Tariffs and Non Tariff Trade Barriers imposed by other Countries, friend or foe, that undermine our Manufacturers, Farmers, and everyone else,” Trump said in August.
“If allowed to stand, this Decision would literally destroy the United States of America. At the start of this Labor Day weekend, we should all remember that TARIFFS are the best tool to help our Workers, and support Companies that produce great MADE IN AMERICA products. For many years, Tariffs were allowed to be used against us by our uncaring and unwise Politicians. Now, with the help of the United States Supreme Court, we will use them to the benefit of our Nation, and Make America Rich, Strong, and Powerful Again! Thank you for your attention to this matter,” Trump said.
