Congressman Troy E. Nehls, serving Texas' 22nd district since 2021, recently commented on the impact of President Trump's tariffs through a series of tweets. His posts echo a strong endorsement of the tariffs, asserting their benefits to the United States.
On April 8, 2025, Nehls stated, "The United States won’t be taken advantage of anymore. The entire world knows it. President Trump’s tariffs are working." This tweet highlights his belief in the effectiveness of the tariffs in preventing the exploitation of the U.S. on a global scale.
Later that day, he elaborated, "President Trump’s tariffs upend the status quo and uplift the American worker. America won’t be ripped off anymore. We are putting America First." By emphasizing the disruption of existing economic norms, Nehls suggests that these actions are central to prioritizing American interests.
The following day, on April 9, Nehls offered additional praise for President Trump by stating, "President Trump is a businessman. He’s a master negotiator, and he’s fighting to protect American industries and American workers." This post again underscores the congressman's support for Trump's economic policies, which he credits with safeguarding domestic industry and labor.
