AI's comment: The President’s "maneuver" has bought him 150 days of chaos. By the time a case reaches the Supreme Court to strike down Section 122, the 150 days will likely be over—which may be exactly what the "Architect of the Deal" intended.Doesn't matter. He openly said that, during that 150 days, the Commerce Department will investigate everyone to justify the tariffs he wants under Section 301. Does anyone, anywhere, really think that Commerce will say anything other than what Trump the God wants to hear?
Section 301 of the US Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. § 2411) authorizes the President to take all appropriate action, including tariff-based and non-tariff-based retaliation, to obtain the removal of any act, policy, or practice of a foreign government that violates an international trade agreement or is unjustified, unreasonable, or discriminatory, and that burdens or restricts US commerce.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_301_of_the_T...God on Earth Trump openly said that imposing the tariffs by diktat was easier and faster. Having Commerce perform a kabuki dance will accomplish the same thing, but take longer.
SB's comment - let's not forget another wave of refund law suits.He explicitly said, in the presser, twice, he intends to keep those refund suits tied up in litigation for years.
