Trump
threatens 'more powerful and obnoxious' tariffs
Donald
Trump has declared that he can use tariffs in a ‘much more powerful and
obnoxious way’ than he has thus far.
Posting
on his Truth Social network, the US president again attacked the supreme court
for ruling against his sweeping global tariffs last Friday – calling them
‘incompetent’.
He also
claims the justices have ‘‘accidentally and unwittingly’ expanded his
presidential powers on tariffs.
Trump
writes:
The
supreme court (will be using lower case letters for a while based on a complete
lack of respect!*) of the United States accidentally and unwittingly gave me,
as President of the United States, far more powers and strength than I had
prior to their ridiculous, dumb, and very internationally divisive ruling.
For
one thing, I can use Licenses to do absolutely “terrible” things to foreign
countries, especially those countries that have been RIPPING US OFF for many
decades, but incomprehensibly, according to the ruling, can’t charge them a
License fee - BUT ALL LICENSES CHARGE FEES, why can’t the United States do so?
You do a license to get a fee! The opinion doesn’t explain that, but I know the
answer! The court has also approved all other Tariffs, of which there are many,
and they can all be used in a much more powerful and obnoxious way, with legal
certainty, than the Tariffs as initially used.
Our
incompetent supreme court did a great job for the wrong people, and for that
they should be ashamed of themselves (but not the Great Three!).
[That’s a
reference to the minority of three justices who backed Trump in last week’s
ruling].
