Donald Trump on Wednesday said any country supplying Iran with military weapons will face immediate 50% tariffs with no exemptions, announcing the duty in a social media post one day after agreeing to a two-week ceasefire with Tehran.
Didn’t the supreme court rule he couldn’t unilaterally set tarrifs?
They said he didn’t have any justification that the ones he set before actually were necessary for national security. He’s actually got a possible justification this time, despite how nonsensical it is to use tariffs for this instead of sanctions.
They said the justification he used didn’t include the ability to set tarriffs, only shut off trade entirely.
The rule of law only applies to us peons.
He is claiming he will just institute them under another authority, which would take time to work through the courts. It’s a broken system.
