A smart person would take his lumps and move on. Trump is not a smart person. Let’s assume that the “best people” that Trump brought to his Cabinet and the White House picked the statute most favorable to his tariff plans. One of the most conservative Supreme Courts since the Civil War beat him with a stick.

Most likely, any new version of Trump tariffs would be thrown out at the District Court level very quickly. The court would likely leave an injunction against the new tariffs in place until the case works its way to the Supreme Court. At this level, there are no do-overs. The High Court would decline to hear the case and the injunction would stand.

Just to prove how stupid Trump is. He had months to prepare for the courts decision, and had no back up plan at all. He couldn't even stick to his own knee jerk reaction on Friday, and changed that on Saturday.

Judging by Scott Bessent's nonplussed FU reaction, it appears there was a Plan B and probably a Plan C.

Is there a lone thought in your head that wasn't blown in there by Daily Kooks?

Would it be weird if President Trump currently has a larger approval margin over Democrats than when he landslided Harris!?

It was 15% EO as a happy comprise. Too hard to tariff all individually temporarily until the original rates are put back.

Could be additional 15% on top original for all I know or care? Hit them hard. For dumping and tarrifs on us.

If you have any idea for manufacturing to return here in enough numbers as we can remember and/or retrain people to do things then tell us now. To me that is what tariffs are for. A little off the GDP increase, and building some foundation for the future. Tell us another way. We saw your EO's and legislation under Joe. Not good.
