"Whether it's AOC, Gavin Newsom, [former Vice President] Kamala Harris, [Senator] Amy Klobuchar [D-MN], none of them have the fortitude, the strength, the bravery President Trump had. None of them would have bombed Fordo [Iran], none of them would have captured [Venezuelan leader Nicolas] Maduro, none of them would have used tariffs to leverage great deals for the United States, continued McEnany. None of them have the cojones I'll use it in Spanish that President Trump has."
"The internet was quick to react to her comments, with HuffPost White House correspondent S.V. Date writing on X that ONLY Donald Trump has the cojones to hit Americans with a super regressive tax like this. Newsom's press office even chimed in, writing of Trump's tariffs, The ones that cost American families billions? As Tahra Hoops, the Director of Economic Analysis at the Chamber of Progress, pointed out, McEnany's comments that the aforementioned Democratic leaders wouldn't use tariffs were correct."
Kayleigh McEnany asserted that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Gavin Newsom, Kamala Harris, and Amy Klobuchar lack the fortitude, bravery, and "cojones" attributed to President Trump and would not employ tariffs, military strikes, or capture foreign leaders. The remarks prompted rapid online reaction and media responses. A HuffPost correspondent criticized the tariff policy as a regressive tax on Americans. Newsom's press office blamed the tariffs for costing families billions. Analysts and commentators noted that Democratic leaders opposed tariffs on principle, and several Republicans voted with Democrats against the administration's tariff measures, drawing public threats from the president.
