President Donald Trump criticized U.S. Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, and three other Republican senators in an early Wednesday social media post for not backing his plan to impose new tariffs on Canada. Trump has said he will enact sweeping new tariffs Wednesday, which he dubbed “Liberation Day,” on imports from other countries, including 25 percent tariffs on Canadian imports and 10 percent tariffs on Canadian energy products. “They are playing with the lives of the American people, and right into the hands of the Radical Left Democrats and Drug Cartels,” Trump said.
