Yeah, I think that's right.

I mean, one big difference is they require more process.

Right.

So some of them, the executive branch has to go and do an investigation.

One statute Trump is relying on sets 150 day deadline for tariffs that the president can impose without congressional approval.

Yeah, exactly.

The 15 percent one.

So, yes, I think this sort of basic question, does this president have the power to impose tariffs under these statutes?

That seems like it's pretty solid for Trump.

But then they're going to be all these questions about how he actually invokes them, what they amount to, the kinds of goods he tries to impose tariffs, because some of them are also limited for the reasons the president can give and the kinds of things that can be taxed.

I mean,

You know, there is a sort of like, OK, well, let's just move on to something else here.

And yet Trump is so devoted to these tariffs that he's going to double down.

Right.

He hates being defied.

He hates being told he doesn't have the power to do something.

And so, as Binya said, we're likely to continue with this as close to the same regime as we've had before.

And the administration will kind of invite the lawsuits forward.

and other challenges that will follow.

And so that's, you know, going into the next election, we're going to continue to have this slight drag on the economy.
