And yet Congress passed a law giving that power to the executive branch.

Edit:

Nice summary from the CRO:

quote:

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.

You can disagree about Trump’s tariff’s but hamstringing Trump while he is in the middle of negotiating with foreign countries is completely stupid.

Never miss an opportunity to misread the room but always sticking to your very narrow view of the world.

Shocked to find myself agreeing with his neighbor. Might have known him better than we thought we did

Rand needs to be removed from committees at this point. Trump needs to freeze him out. Rand and Massie only care about grandstanding but fight against actual change. They are just as bad as the most corrupt democrat.

I laugh at how some lament these tariffs and their drop in 401K.

You fail to realize, if these policies had taken place 20 years ago, you probably would have triple the money you have now, instead you grovel and complain about the left over crumbs waiting for those to be taken if it continued.

Rand needs to sit down - America voted for tariffs- Trumps plan has worked and been excited flawlessly- inflation is down and will continue to do so. I personally don’t want to pay income tax and this plan is the way to achieve that goal - maybe instead of fighting the president that has the best first 100 days in history he should join him

It would not bother me if his neighbor beat the crap out of him again.

Sounds like RAND has his hands in the cookie jars & afraid of getting exposed. He’s made deals with foreign countries and committees he is in are receiving back door payments into their offshore accounts.

Frick this guy too
