Klobuchar: What is the difference between Greenland and Donald Trump? Greenland is not for sale. *boo* Klobuchar: Ok. For any Republican Trump Administration person who wants to throw eggs at me because of that joke. You can’t because they’re too expensive.

Republicans in Congress tomorrow asked about the Trump Tariffs: “I didn’t see the tweet about the tariffs. I’ll look into it and get back to you.”
