played a bit of a role because we know that white house officials when they met with senate republicans earlier this week there was reporting that they were very taken aback from these comments from senate republicans. we saw that major allies of the president in the senate republican side of the chamber such as senator grassley were saying things like, oh, i agree with the president s immigration policy but not on this. because this is going to hurt farmers in my state so i think president trump realized that there was too much of a political risk in all of this. a tariff is a tax and the republican party is more so anti-tax or pro lower taxes if you will so this could have gone against his own job. i think the president saw that. if the tar itches instated this would hurt the current jobs numbers and from yesterday they appear to be a bit anemic. yeah.
