Trump asks Supreme Court to quickly take up tariffs case and reverse ruling finding them illegal
What is interesting, if unsuccessful Trump has to pay back all those tariffs. These were paid for by companies and passed on to consumers. Guess who is getting the refunds?
What an amazing way to transfer more wealth to companies.
I'm sure every company refunded will cut every citizen checks to compensate, I mean, they just want what's fair 🙄
(Also, the bingo square "tariffs are overturned but companies don't lower their prices" is a freebie in the center.)
And they’ll also certainly lower the prices to pre-tariff levels!
What’s going to be really fun is the giant hole the lack of tariff income blows in his already shitty budget. He was counting on that cash to offset his tax cuts for the rich. Get ready for some turbo inflation.
Of course he is. It feels like the economy is already fucked either way.
It definitely is. A lot of countries try to reduce their dependence on the US. Even if the current administration is no longer in office, the damage will be done and a lot of it will be permanent.
Whatever decision the scotus makes, the damage already done is incalculable. Which was the point. Of course they want all their outlandish executive orders to just become the law, but even if challenged and struck down, the damage done by each EO is severe, and taken collectively may be permanent
Edit- which is like the back up plan for the Trump admin; yeah let’s try to have all this crazy bullshit become law, but even if it doesn’t, we kind of get what we want- which is total loss of faith in the US government, and chaos
None of this matters anymore. He has caused so much chaos and damage, it's going to take months or years to recover from this.
His tariffs have always been illegal and honestly, no company should have paid them. My company is losing thousands every shipment because of these random and stupid tariffs, i can only imagine the hundreds of thousands other companies are paying in tariff's alone.
The supreme court is owned by the GOP, so they will side with him and the country will continue to freefall into a massive depression.
SCOTUS responds by putting on knee pads and sucking Trump's micro pedo penis.
Pageantry. This is just another method of stalling them for another round of pump and dumps.
Since the appeals are letting the terrifs in place,..we will know how they will rule on how fast they take it
Slow walk: "they're going rule in his favor."
Instant emergency pickup: "they may potentially strike them down."
Think about it, there's no downside for letting this sit here since the tariffs are continuing
Watch as the ruling is going to come down to saying Trump is allowed unless Congress votes to block either the declaration of emergency or the actual EO.
The end goal here is to centralise power - that is the GOP SCOTUS goal. There is no way Roberts doesn't justify this action by Trump.
They are enablers - Roe v Wade was just a test of what the US people would accept and to gauge their reaction
Clarence Thomas salivating at another motorcoach "gratuity."
Yes. Uncle Thomas wants a new cabin.
This the type of shit that makes me believe in simulation theory. The one uncle tom acting motherfucker on the bench is actually named tom.
Honestly, if we had known that all you need to do to bribe an SC justice was to give them a fucking RV and consistently refer to it as a “gratuity”, we could have gotten in front of a whole fucking lot of the problems we’re facing now
