How do you rule one act is 80% legal and 20% illegal when the question comes down to a binary issue of delineated authority?
Either he has the authority granted from that specific Congressional act, or he doesn't.
This isn’t a simple DUI trial. But even those verdicts and judgments have nuance chief.
Do you have a bar card?

Not true.

There is zero chance they retroactively try to undue what has been so far. They may make the tariffs unconstitutional so therefore “stop them”. It would be like trying to completely undue what was done under the obiden administration. It would be impossible. Quit being unreasonable.

More projection.

Look at the prediction markets. They’re going to rule against Trump. The reason he didn’t use these statutes in the first place is that they take time. It just adds steps to the tariff process.

I think you're not looking at this strategically. The administration knows that no matter what, Dems are going to sue.

I remember 4 justices ruled a law was legal based on the arguments presented and 4 ruled it was illegal. The tie breaking vote was that it was legal based on something that neither side mentioned in their arguments.

And you people say Trump is stupid. He obviously was able to learn that approach from the Biden administration. Ie...immigration , etc
You people really do ignorantly step it in every time, don't you?!

If I’m a business that is legally entitled to receive X in refunds if the tariffs are ruled unconstitutional, I’m not paying X in corporate income taxes until I’m reimbursed. It’s pretty basic accounting. You’re just moving accounts receivables around the balance sheet
