Rep Jared Golden Democrat "I remember Dems being outraged by the World Trade Organization, NAFTA, all these trade deals, even as recently as [the Trans-Pacific Partnership]," Golden told Axios. "Now all of a sudden it's like a complete 180-degree flip here, where we're staunchly defending the importance and relevance of the stock market to the American economy and defending free trade deals."

Earlier this month, Golden stated on X that he was pleased with elements of Trump's tariff agenda, noting that "this ring fence around the American economy is a good start to erasing our unsustainable trade deficits" and that "tariffs are a first step in rewriting a rigged trade system."

The Maine Democrat suggested to Axios that while his comrades are "searching under every couch cushion for ways to re-appeal the party to working class, coming out against this so strongly" is bad strategy. [Blaze]
