Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) criticized President-elect Trump’s tariff threats in an interview Tuesday, after Trump said he would impose a steep import tax on Mexico, Canada and China on the first day of his new administration.

President-elect may face a ‘hugely negative reaction’ from the tariffs from US citizens once the effects were felt at home and be ‘held accountable,’ Democratic senators said

Justin Trudeau, Canada's prime minister, told reporters on Tuesday that he had a "good" conversation with Trump following the president-elect's post.
