Trump tariffs ruled illegal by U.S. court

There are people who devoutly deny being racist, and yet they say that racial discrimination is the only cure for past discrimination.

Contrast.

Is the only cure for increasing disregard for the spirit of the law to disregard it yourself?

If both sides believe they aren't playing dirty games, there is no cure one way or another. Refusing to match escalation is just surrender.

There is a slight chance that after sufficient escalation enough people will see the symmetry and try to return to a high trust political process by emphasizing honor and benefit of the doubt.

To make this more specific, Trump's legal positions are novel. His lawyers won't ever admit that they were breaking the law; but neither did the left-tribe lawfare lawyers; even though their 'interpretations' were just as unprecedented and absurd.

It's a flaw in law that it can be used this way, that's true; but that doesn't change the fact that it wasn't until the last decade. Or at least it wasn't publicly visible.

I've never had to abandon a core principle because of what a right-winger did.

I am shocked the right-wing is so weak they are going to blame Democrats for the reason they now ignore the US Constitution.
 
It's not a tax no matter how much you cry. You people do this all the time. All the lame brain media use the same word over and over. I wonder which of you demholes came up with the a tariff is a "tax" idea. Hilarious
So who gets the tariff money? Duh, it’s the government, not some corporation doing business. So, it’s a tax.

You can scream and cry all you want, it does not change the fact that a tariff is a tax.


Can you define the word "tax" for us please?

You realize don't you that when they were planning Obamacare and they are going to penalize people (tax) if they didn't sign up for it who was that money going to? The govt shit stain. But when they they argued for it in front of the supreme Court they only referred to it as a "fee". Stfu demhole

You mean I sound like you?

So a compulsory contribution to revenue is not a tax unless its levied on workers income and business profits?

Inheritance Tax is not a tax? Use taxes are not taxes? Property taxes are not taxes?
 
On what basis do you believe it will be overturned? Do you believe the President has was given the power to tax via the Constitution?
Yes, the President has clear authority to impose tariffs and shape trade policy, using powers granted by Congress to protect national security, counter unfair trade practices, or negotiate deals like the USMCA.

Come on, don’t you know the President has a White House Counsel-packed with top-tier lawyers-who vet every move? Trump campaigned on this, spelling out exactly what he’d do and why: level the playing field. It’s not rocket science. If libtards weren’t so blinded by their TDS, they’d be cheering for policies that benefit all Americans, unless you’re a fan of getting fleeced. Libtards seem clueless that Trump’s tariffs match the unfair ones we face abroad.

Beyond tariffs, factors like regulations and currency manipulation jack up costs, and those need fixing for a fair deal. Another thing to understand, Trump’s not abusing the leverage of the world’s most desirable market, he’s correcting an imbalance. The whole country should back this fix for many years of an injustice that’s gutted jobs, shuttered factories, and threatened national security by offshoring critical manufacturing. Arguing against this is just self-sabotage, rooted in a sad refusal to see a thriving economy under Trump.
