Sen. Pat Toomey on Sunday defended President Donald Trump amid the administration’s trade war with China, arguing that an eventual agreement with Beijing may be “worth the price” of the “absolutely painful” tariffs hammering American farmers.
“I actually think the president is right to challenge China,” the Pennsylvania Republican told host Chris Wallace on “Fox News Sunday,” adding that he classifies the Asian power “in a distinct category separate from” other U.S. competitors and adversaries.
