GOP Senator Accidentally Reveals Howard Lutnick Tariff Fumbles

The cabinet secretary helping to negotiate Donald Trump’s global tariff deals didn’t appear to know some of his own trade laws while testifying about them in Congress.

Billionaire businessman turned Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick also stunned senators when answering questions about Trump’s stated goal of tariff reciprocity, prompting frustrated Republican John Kennedy to ask: “What’s the purpose of reciprocity then?”

The testy exchange took place during an appropriations hearing on Capitol Hill, in the latest sign that some GOP lawmakers are becoming increasingly impatient with the White House’s negotiating strategy.

Kennedy, who has previously questioned the wisdom of Trump’s trade wars, asked Lutnick: “Tell me your understanding of the Trade Expansion Act.”
