What's any of these remarks have to do with the horrible tornadoes and flooding.If you want to post something post a prayer for these people instead of snide remarks.Thank you Congressman Jason Smith for having sympathy for these tragic occurrences.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Please protect FEMA. Your constituents rely on it.

Hope you’re working with FEMA for our fellow Missourians Oh that’s right. You want to eliminate FEMA and leave it up to the states.

American workers and manufacturers have been burdened by other countries’ unfair trade practices.

Yesterday, President Trump put America First by demanding better treatment and a level playing field for our exporters.

Man, you are working hard to put a shine on this sh*t! When folks start to realize how screwed they are, they are going to blame you first.

Do you even know how long and how much $$$ it takes to build a manufacturing plant? Tariffs are a tax increase. Your guy has inherited one of the best economies ever and is running it into the ground.

Trolls the brainless are out early. If you understood the DOW you would know that a big sell off/ drop is a fear factor. If you sell because its dropping then you are the reason it drops. It takes time to level out not over night.

Under President Biden, our agricultural trade deficit exploded, which hurt American farmers.

President Trump’s trade policies will open up markets to American agriculture, and put farmers, like those in my district, on a level playing field with countries that impose discriminatory tariffs against them.

Common sense, tariffs are only going to raise prices, people will buy less and a recession occurs. Forget the party is and work for your constituents.

China will buy all its soybeans from Brazil. Americans will have to bail out farmers again. This is the largest tax increase on Americans since the 1960’s.

I didn’t hear Trump say any help was on its way for farmers and small businesses.

I think it was horrible for President Trump todo a special on tariffs. Today was a tornado day Tennessee Missouri and Arkansas. At a time like this we need weather alerts not tariffs ! Big mistake on some bodies part. Many apologies should be made to all from our Congress and Senate. To risk our safety to talk about tariffs in unimaginable!

Another Law Firm just caved to extortion... Fact: Every lawyer swears an oath to support the Constitution of the United States. No lawyer’s oath contains a temporal limitation; a lawyer must follow the oath always. Lawyers are obligated to act in support of the US Constitution in all situations, especially when it's hard. Bending a knee to ANY power should constitute disbarment.

We stand behind our president. Donald J Trump. Always America first❤️🙏🇺🇸

Under President Trump, several major companies have pledged millions of dollars of investment in American manufacturing.

Investment in America means American businesses, manufacturers, and workers win.

if he cares so much about workers why has he fired thousands of cameron workers? why is he firing health care scientists, why has he hired the most incompetent cabinet in history? don't try to make excuses it only makes you look more foolish

Uh, millions? That is just the cost of toilet paper. If you are thinking of a real economic impact, try trillions.

What companies prove it!
