25. If It Walks Like A Tariff And Quacks Like A Tariff
Tue Jan 20, 2026, 02:42 AM
Tuesday

It is a tariff. It doesn't matter if it is rubber-stamped a levy. Sure, he will issue still another Executive Order but where is the legal framework for such an Executive Order? It is not in the Constitution. Besides, the Supreme Court decision should anticipate an end-run and cut it off at the pass.
