Reported that trade tariffs secured 22 billion in April, proving the financial wisdom of making international trade constraints equitable.

Those three judges just cut the legs off of the US negotiating team. There is no country in the world that expects any negotiation to be upheld by the federal court system now. Why bother? Impact is immediate. This was not a temporary order. Damage is done.

If a judge makes a sweeping ruling like this and is later overturned on appeal they should face some kind of punishment. Not hanging or anything but pretty severe.

Used to be that plaintiffs suing had to put up a performance bond to get a forced injunction. The fed cuts no longer use that tool

Where do you think that money came from?


The federal government doesn't need more money it needs to cut spending.

We're 35 trillion in debt and interest makes up 15% of our budget. We need both. Tariffs are a consumption tax, give me that over income tax all day.

You're not being given a choice. You're going to get both a consumption tax and an income tax.

Trump can order Coast Guard to stop every inbound ship for deep inspections and hold up shipments for weeks until somebody cries Uncle.

No judge could do a damn thing about that, that is pure Commander-in-Chief power.

Spoiler Alert: Not a single federal judge possesses the power to enforce a single ruling they've ever made.

And if the tax cuts expire your consumption tax goes nowhere while your income tax increases.


With the tax cuts you stay paying less income taxes.


Why do you want both to go up?

What are you talking about? Tariffs are not tied to income taxes. If tax cuts expire Trump isn't going to then remove his tariffs.

We've lost our country. It was purchased a while back and I'm not sure if the 'Judges' weren't among the first to get sold.

Let's see what happens. If you don't succumb to your despair and eventually find a way out of your doom spiral, you might be surprised at what develops.
