The Club for Growth, a conservative free-market advocacy group, has taken steps to further distance itself from President Donald Trump. In recent weeks, the group has been critical of Trump's handling of the government shutdown, with its president calling Trump's reasoning for the shutdown "absurd." The group has also been highly critical of Trump's trade policies and tariff decisions, which it sees as harmful to the economy. It has urged Congress to pass a bill limiting Trump's power to place additional tariffs on foreign imports. In addition, the Club for Growth has called for the appointment of Senate-confirmed members to the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors and for greater transparency in the president's judicial nominations. The club is now planning to launch a series of ads opposing Trump's policies, in hopes of influencing the policies of the 2020 presidential campaign.
