Are the tariffs issued by President Trump a constitutional issue​

The President is NOT Using Article II hence no Constitutional issue

Trump’s tariff powers​

Trump’s executive order implementing his so-called reciprocal tariffs says that he derives his authority for the action from four sources in the United States Code.

Among them are the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and the National Emergency Act.

A president using those laws in tandem can declare an emergency and then impose related tariffs.


Wednesday’s order declared a national emergency in response to what it called an “unusual and extraordinary threat” to America’s economy and security.

That threat is based on “the domestic economic policies of key trading partners and structural imbalances in the global trading system,” the order says.

Trump is the first president to use the IEEPA to impose tariffs, according to the Congressional Research Service.

Falsely declaring an emergency in order to create de facto blockade of the U.S. economy is an act of war against the U.S., and that is a constitutional issue:

"Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them"

There is no national emergency, no capitol burning.

This is NaziTrump trying for more power.

How is it a “free market” when we basically pay other nations to put tariffs on our goods, allowing them to subsidize their exports?

How that is any way in touch with reality?

The US doesn't pay tariffs that other countries implement. Each country pays for their own tariffs. You're as clueless as Trump is.

It would be nice to have manufacturing come back here like it once was.

Not only nice but its strategic as well... remember how the Chinese held back critical medical supplies during covid... we have to isolate China and show the world the USA is back and open for business....
