Rep. Jared Golden (D-Maine) reaffirmed his support for President Trump’s ongoing tariff war with Canada, stating that any retaliatory actions by Canada "won’t go well" for the country. Speaking to the Portland Press Herald on Tuesday, August 27, 2026, Golden said, "If Canada thinks they’re better off without our goods, I wish them good luck."

Golden’s comments highlight a rare instance of a Democrat endorsing Trump’s trade policies, emphasizing the potential economic consequences for Canada if it continues to resist the tariffs.
