Trump’s DOJ peddles grim fantasies in court filing to save tariffs
The Trump administration claimed the U.S. economy would fall to pieces if the president’s widely unpopular tariff policy isn’t upheld.
The media and public opinion influencers should refrain from using Trump's descriptions of the taxes he is imposing on the American people, as tariffs. They are in no way tariffs, despite the woefully uneducated protestations of Trump.
Tariffs are fees that are paid by the exporting countries Trump imposes them on, which ain't what is happening. He is imposing them on the American people at the point of import, NOT on the exporting countries. Trump doesn't understand tariffs; Trump has never understood tariffs, and Trump does not have the right to levy taxes on the American people. That is the duty of Congress.
It looks like the appeals court is going to make it plain to Trump and shoot him down. Of course he will appeal to his pocket Supreme Court. All bets are off as to how they will rule. If they support their master, the losers will be the American people!
Bigly!!!
