March 5 (Reuters) - Jack Daniel's maker Brown-Forman's CEO Lawson Whiting said on Wednesday Canadian provinces taking American liquor off store shelves was "worse than a tariff" and a "disproportionate response" to levies imposed by the Trump administration.

They also have the Project 2025 authors and the rest of the Republican Party to blame as well.

Republican voters*

I don't care if they were duped, hoodwinked, brainwashed, lied to, conned, scammed, whatever. They need to take some fucking responsibility.
