Trump Administration Prepares for Executive Action on Trade Amid Midterm Elections

In the midst of the midterm elections in the United States on November 3, President Donald Trump's team has started making important strategies. The Trump administration is preparing for executive action on many issues, including trade, without seeking approval from Congress. The Trump administration is not thinking much about winning a majority in the election. If the Democrats gain control of Congress, Trump's trade agenda may face new opposition. According to US News, the Democrats want to bring legislation to repeal many of Trump's tariffs and the old laws that support them, but even if the party succeeds, it will have to use Trump's veto power. Senator Ron Wyden, the head of the Senate Finance Committee, said,'The first priority is to eliminate Trump's tariffs imposed on Canada. These tariffs are raising prices and hurting people on both sides of the border.'The Republican Party of the US House of Representatives, ID1, has a majority in both the House and the Senate.
