Did he forget about that lawsuit he lost where his tariffs were determined to be illegal?
Who am I kidding? He doesn't give a shit.
Supreme Court ruling was against tariffs under IEEPA. He is still able to use industry specific tariffs under Trade Expansion Act, that's how tariffs on Canadian auto, lumber, steel, aluminum sectors continue dispute Supreme Court ruling
is it then not possible for him to circumvent the ruling entirely by simply taxing the industries that account for like 99% of the trade with a given country? like it probably wouldn't be possible to list all the industries but surely listing 10 most popular ones would essentially equate to a blanket tariff
It's effectively a bailout with extra steps
Huh?
The car manufacturers will charge the customer any tariffs and then when they sue to get there money back they will not only keep the price at the higher level butv will then get the tariff money back. Same thing the last lawsuit did.
Gotcha. Sorry, I'm really tired.
Except this one is ongoing, and a bailout is generally once.
I heard he gives shits all the time. Everyone's saying it.
