    Even if we cast aside their bullshit claims, that has nothing to do with whether it is illegal. Tariffs and taxes are always supposed to come from congress, this dumb fascist fuck just doesn’t care and keeps getting away with it.

      I think there’s some caveats to that, because the ruling did say that some of the tariffs were legal (I think steel and aluminum).

        While that is entirely possible, I think the reason those were exempted here is because Trump wasn’t using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to push them through.
