A U.S. federal court on Wednesday blocked President Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs from going into effect, ruling that the president overstepped his authority by imposing across-the-board duties on imports from nations that sell more to the United States than they buy.

    It’s a shame you’re being downvoted for making valid points. I think the problem is that many people can’t endorse a trump policy, even if it might eventually have an unintended positive outcome. I don’t blame them either - I get the impression that a lot of the tariff stuff we’ve seen so far has been market manipulation for the benefit of shit-sack and his wealthy backers.

      I’ve acknowledged like the ~two times he had a good idea. This is not one of them, and wouldn’t accomplish what the OC wants to see accomplished.

      It’s a bad idea all around. On top of being illegally executed.
