Tariff Man and his tariff plan cause market plunges

Miss you over in the USA hockey thread. I’m sure you were cheering passionately for the US.

The answer is Canada imposes high tariffs on U.S. dairy imports beyond limited quotas to protect its domestic dairy. The system prioritizes Canadian farm stability and rural economies over fully open trade.

My overarching argument is all the TDS folks don’t care if tariffs are good or bad for the US. You just know it came from Trump so you don’t like it.

I mean, that's cute and all but really quite irrelevant. An illegally implemented tariff is a disservice to all of us and it's the exact kind of bad faith negotiating that erodes faith in the U.S.

I do love the energy, though.

Hopefully CBP updates their system quickly. The amount of revenue that may need to be refunded continues to grow.

Im sure there are those who will say how bad this is, its quite hilarious

I mean, that's great except for this... that it seems you missed... where they released new data showing the highest deficit in goods on record.

Quite sad, especially when you pair it with those massive revisions and the net loss in manufacturing jobs

PRESIDENT TRUMP JUST WENT FULL BEAST MODE on Truth Social:

Supreme Court accidentally handed him a MASSIVE POWER-UP with their ruling, now he can unleash LICENSES (aka tariffs on steroids) on countries ripping us off for decades, with even MORE legal muscle and zero respect for the “incompetent” justices who botched it!

He’s calling out the Court for potentially siding with China on birthright citizenship next, while vowing: “I have a job to do. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Trump turning a “ridiculous” ruling into America First rocket fuel. The man never stops fighting!

No, Bam. They affirmed that he didn't actually have a power he tried to illegally claim. Sharing stuff like this proves you were never actually paying attention.

He still has all the other powers he already had. He just needs to use them and follow the law when doing so.

He was handed a defeat for an overreach. The rest of the bluster is adorable. If he wants to use tariffs he has to do it within the actual authority he has.
