We're going to be paying hundreds of billions back and to mostly woke supporting and/or foreign companies. Not sure why you're thrilled about this.

LOL! SCOTUS’s ruling basically said Trump was using the wrong law for his tariffs, so Trump just issued the same tariffs under different laws and increased them by 10%.

“Thank you for your attention to this matter.” - Trump

I so voted for this.

In terms of economic outcome, President Trump won a huge victory on tariffs.
This just begs the question:

If the other statute was available the entire time, and it’s just as effective and clearly legal, why wasn’t it used from day one? Why reach for emergency powers at all if a straightforward trade law pathway existed?

Calling this a “huge victory” because he’s now pivoting to a legal mechanism that was always available feels odd.

People need to understand TRUMP will not lose, period. And he does his homework.

Why would you think those two things would be mutually exclusive?
I don’t necessarily think that. It’s just there was a lot of people lamenting the decision, only to find out it really wasn’t that big of a deal since the SC only decided that this one particular statute wasn’t to be used for the tariffs that were imposed. It seems there are other avenues to accomplish what the President wants to do.

They very well may be compromised, but there have been other (more) controversial decisions in which that inference could be made. I am no legal scholar by any means, but from what I read it did not seem like a scathing rebuke of anything, but more of a different interpretation of the statute.

As for the ‘refunds’ or returns, I have no idea of how the decision does or does not affect that (if that was indeed a reason why the ruling was controversial).

It was a great ruling for Republicans. This limits the power of the Executive for the next Democrat POTUS, and Trump can keep using Tariffs as he pleases.


5D Chess

POTUS Trump got exactly what the POTUS needed with SCOTUS clarity!!
