Ep 1188 | Trump's Most Successful Weekend Ever | Guest: Ron Simmons
from Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey · host Blaze Podcast Network
Today, we have Allie's dad, Ron Simmons, here to break down the ongoing tariffs with China and other countries and to bring some sense to what's happening with Trump's trade deals. We also talk about the Trump administration bringing refugees over from South Africa, despite the Left's outrage over the deportations of illegal migrants. But will these weekend victories help Trump's approval ratings? And while certain state bills are stalled or on the floor, Ron shares some valuable advice and recommendations for voters who wish to talk to their representatives about their concerns.
