So what happens to the billions(?) of dollars that the regime stole from tax payers?
Oops. Gone.
Spent on installing the gestapo and concentration camps
Well all of it has to come back to the exporters (we pay it all, as trump always says) /s
I know the current thought process is that the US consumer pays this, but I know of exporters that have been told by the big chains in the US that told the exporter to take a hit because they feel that they cant pass on all of the tariff to the US customers
So not only is he fucking with you, but also with the rest of the world:
- US customers pay more and buy less
- Exporters get bullied by large US importers
- Exporters get stung twice, Less sales and lower margins
- Exporting countries economies suffer because you fuckers let that fuck-wit in again
/end rant
The tariffs are essentially an unpredictable tax on consumers and companies. Mostly it’ll be the consumers but if companies are effectively bullied into eating some of the tax and reducing their profits, it’s a corporate tax on them. Of course the GOP says it’s completely against new taxes on anyone and especially corporate profits, but that’s what the tariffs are. Being unpredictable and changing due to bullying or political influence - or lack thereof - is much worse for the markets in general.
Oh boy cant wait to hear what SCOTUS has to say
Same as always. They’ll just appeal and delay and keep repeating that until they get a judge that will toe the line.
The SCOTUS can’t appeal… They’re the last stop, nothing higher than them. They can refuse to hear a case and wait for one they think better fits their agenda to rule on.
The context line for the article says:
The appeals court stayed its ruling until Oct. 14, giving the Trump administration time to ask the Supreme Court to hear the case
That’s not SCOTUS appealing, it’s them delaying hearing the case.
The appeals court made a ruling. They said it won’t apply until October 14, knowing that the Trump admin would ask SCOTUS to hear the case.
Correct, that’s how the court system works.
Ok well, just going to point out the obvious here - SCOTUS has not yet heard the case, so while they may be the last stop, this issue hasn’t gotten to that last stop yet.
No the scotus is going to be the judges who yoe the line…
They’re not the last stop; there’s one more box to open.
What is after the Supreme Court?
Calvinball.
The rules are whatever they want and the dictator always wins.
“Any competent reader will immediately see the obvious intentions of the founding fathers. They did not want a king from England ruling over them because they wanted their own king. They knew that Trump was the only true king of kings so it wasn’t constitutional until now.”
dammit simpsons did it again
All it takes is a vacation home or RV. Then they will side with you, no matter how illegal it may be.
Immunity baby!!
“If these Tariffs ever went away, it would be a total disaster for the Country,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. “If allowed to stand, this Decision would literally destroy the United States of America.”
If you cant stand on your own two feet - go fuck your self
He’s setting the scene for blaming somebody else when it all inevitably implodes.
Or to take credit when it doesnt. Which is more his style. Start a fire. Call the fire department. Then praise himself a hero for alerting them.
Either way, it works - assuming your audience is dumb. The conspiracy nut (or religion) playbook became national politics.
Good thing he listens to what courts and judges say.
/s
Other than SCOTUS which just fluffs him.
Lmao too bad laws don’t apply to kings
Aaaannddd… another appeals court or the SCOTUS will overturn it again.
