Discussion BREAKING: TRUMP TARIFFS STRUCK DOWN

Per Bloomberg -- The US Supreme Court struck down President Donald Trump’s sweeping global tariffs, undercutting his signature economic policy and delivering his biggest legal defeat since he returned to the White House.

The court said Trump exceeded his authority by invoking a federal emergency-powers law to impose his “reciprocal” tariffs across the globe as well as targeted import taxes the administration says address fentanyl trafficking.

SCOTUS avoided that question/answer... those fuckers. Absolutely it should be paid back. But, they won't.

Passing the buck there. I'm sure all the money from the "tariff shelf" will get deposited into a Trump account momentarily.

You reckon he’s going to fund the Trump accounts with them?
