Here’s what Grok says about your ridiculous statement:
From the United States Constitution. Article Two lays out executive powers, while Congress handles legislative stuff under Article One. Checks and balances mean they share influence, but the president's core authority-like vetoing laws or being commander-in-chief-starts constitutional.

It's really amazing. The Constitution is a masterpiece.
Congress writes the laws.
The Executive executes those laws.
The Judiciary interprets those laws.
Don't like it? Amend the Constitution.
As with all taxes, Congress generally decides on tariffs. Do the Trump tariffs fit into the specific exceptions that Congress gave the Executive authority?
We will see what the Supreme Court decides.

A ruling striking down Trump's use of the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA, to quickly impose broad global tariffs also would eliminate a favorite cudgel to punish countries that draw his ire on non-trade political matters.
quote:
Bessent told Reuters that he expects the Supreme Court to uphold the IEEPA-based tariffs. But if it strikes down the tariffs, Bessent said in an interview, the administration will simply switch to other tariff authorities, including Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, which allows broad 15% tariffs for 150 days to calm trade imbalances.
Bessent said Trump also can invoke Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930, a statute that allows tariffs up to 50% on countries that discriminate against U.S. commerce.

If you think he needs this, you need Congress to pass legislation granting him this specific tariff power
The President already has established tariff powers based on statutes

Some authority? Yes. That's what I said
The problem is he's using a statute in a novel way that was not the intention to expand executive powers beyond the intended scope. It's similar to Bidens loan forgiveness using the HEROES Act.
The question is how much excess executive authority the USSC will give him. Biden got 0 and that was a huge victory for all of us. Reversing that means the next Biden can do extreme silliness like loan forgiveness out of irrelevant statutes.

He has a point.
If the executive can’t use the power of the economy as diplomatic leverage, then he has no leverage.
Other governments will see this weakness and take full advantage to weaken our economy and thus our country.
It can be a national security issue.
Gosh, I wonder how we ever made it over 200 years without doing this.

Not at all, I had proven the point several times that Presidential Power does not come from Congress… but is based in the Constitution.
I feel sorry for you and your inability to comprehend.

Trying to use 1 and 2 syllable words here…
Show me in the Constitution where Presidential Authority is granted by Congress.
You think George Washington sat around waiting on Congress to grant him Presidential Authority?
“Come on guys, I’m sitting here with nothing to do… where’s my congressional authority!!!”

Careful, you’re going to strain his ability to have Grok or some shite to give him answers his fake law degree doesn’t.
God only knows the jibberish that’s going to follow if you overclock him. Assuming of course it’s an actual him and not a seriously confused woman, which wouldn’t surprise me

This report examines Congress's constitutional power over import tariffs, Congress's ability to delegate some of its authority over tariffs to the President within certain limits, the scope of specific authorities Congress has delegated to the President to impose or adjust tariffs, and the ways in which courts have resolved challenges to the President's use of those authorities.
The Constitution grants Congress the power to regulate foreign commerce, impose tariffs, and collect revenue.
As discussed in this report, Congress has long enacted laws authorizing the President to adjust tariff rates on goods in certain circumstances. Courts have generally upheld these laws against constitutional challenges, holding that they do not impermissibly delegate Congress's legislative power over tariffs to the executive branch.
