Slotkin, just a few months after her first term in the US Senate, after winning an open seat in Michigan, although Trump was wearing the state, said Trump “had not defined a credible plan” in order to satisfy the increasing everyday costs for Americans. She said that the tariffs that came into force early Tuesday would only deteriorate the problem.

“For those who hold the score, public debt is not increasing,” said Slotkin. “And if he is not careful, he could lead us directly to a recession.”

Slotkin spoke from Wyandotte, Michigan, a community of the working class south of Detroit after Trump gave the longest speech to the congress by a president in US history.

“It's late,” she started, “so I promise to be much shorter than what you have just seen.”

In his speech, which lasted an hour and 40 minutes, Trump applied for recognition for “quick and relentless measures” in the redesign of the economy, immigration and foreign policy in the country within its first weeks of office. The Republican -controlled house and the Senate did little to check the agenda of the president.

In their refutation, which lasted a little more than 10 minutes, Slotkin told the Americans that “change does not have to be chaotic or make us less secure.” Her comments came when the Democrats have difficulty setting up to a uniform message to combat Trump. This struggle was exhibited on Tuesday evening when some democratic members held posters in the house chamber with various news. The most dramatic moment came when Texan representative Al Green was released after the President's outer place.

Slotkin focused on economic problems after Trump's announcement announced on Monday that 25% tariffs for imports from Mexico and Canada would start on Tuesday. The move has again lit the fears of a North American trade war, which has already shown signs that inflation was built up and growth has taken place.

In the past, Slotkin has not hesitated not to hesitate to do the news of her party if necessary.

“We didn't do a good job as we could have to show what our priorities are,” said Slotkin of Associated Press after the elections in November. “In my eyes, our priorities should start with the paperbacks of the people and their children. And I think the news was confused for many people, certainly at the national level. “

Her team said she was accompanied by the marine veteran Andrew Lennox, who recently spoken after the loss of his job in a veterans Affair Hospital in Ann Arbor due to cuts by the Department of Government Efficiency or Doge led by the billionaire Elon Musk.

The 48-year-old Slotkin, a former CIA analyst, is seen as the leading figure in the next generation of the party. In 2018 she ran for an office for the first time and defeated a two -term reigning Republican. After redistribution, she consistently won one of the most competitive house seats in the country and was given a reputation as one of the best fundraising campaigns of the party. In 2023, she announced a run for Michigan's open seat in the Senate after Senator Debbie Stabenow announced not to apply for a fifth term.
