This is The Guardian.
It is a huge problem for Trump.
He does look sort of weak at the moment.
Republicans and Democrats feel that Trump's tariffs have cost them more money.
And Trump continues to sort of threaten these other tariffs.
It's ludicrous.
He doesn't have that power.
The reason he thinks tariffs is such a beautiful word is that it was a cudgel that he could use to browbeat other countries into doing what he wants.
But the Supreme Court told him he actually can't.
Yeah, one wonders if refund is his second favorite word.
What's changed is an incredible Supreme Court ruling in February of this year, which said that Trump's tariffs were illegal.
Trump, you may recall, declared an emergency, a national emergency.
He said,
China, but many other places, are ludicrously high.
And instead of trying to address the root causes of that, he just said, we're just going to slap tariffs on other countries to address this national emergency.
He's done it with other things as well.
He loves declaring emergencies in order to kind of try to get powers that he really doesn't have.
But the Supreme Court said, no, you don't have those powers.
You aren't allowed to
just unilaterally impose taxes, which is what they said it was.
