    Sotomayor grilling Blanch about using tariffs to raise revenue....plenty of evidence of trump bragging about how much revenue he's bringing in

    Tariffs are toast

    He’ll keep coming up with new emergencies to employ new tariffs and they’ll keep dragging him back to court, which could take years.
    So why bother? 

    For the exact same reason why the budget deal to get heat and food and flights back, need to fight for your political ideas.

    He almost changed my mind on tariffs, but not quite. If used aggressively like he is, the USA can get better deals and force business to find ways to absorb costs. Problem is, it pisses off your allies over and over.

    So how do you offset the cost so us the consumers don’t take the hit? American businesses don’t want to absorb any more costs to them period they are in business to make a profit no?

    umm werent folks bitching about Biden's attempts at price controls? Raked Harris over the coals for the same? 

    So government is going to require for profit businesses to eat costs? 

    please.

    I don’t think I said I support the tariffs, just that business will absorb some costs. Was it not Goldman that estimated importers and exporters will absorb nearly 80?

    My comment was more from the judicial perspective. It’s going to be difficult for courts to legislate when and where trade emergencies exist, every time he claims one. Courts are slow to respond, he can issue an EO 24/7.

    As the oral arguments made clear, the Supreme Court is about to bless an unholy union between presidential corruption and corporate power under the premise that it is actually upholding constitutional principles. https://trib.al/nCLJqJI

    Chief Justice John Roberts touted the independence of the federal judiciary as a “counter-majoritarian check” and urged Americans rattled by partisan politics to keep faith with the Constitution in an annual report that steered clear of direct discussion of modern controversies. https://cnn.it/4aERhOJ

    i assumed he would spin it in such a way that he won and they vindicated him.
