Trump’s tariff Plan B

Trump plots new tariffs after Supreme Court loss

President Trump is rushing to rebuild his tariff wall after the Supreme Court struck down a pillar of his trade agenda by ruling his use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to justify them was unlawful.

Ahead of the first State of the Union address of his second term, Trump is racing ahead with his backup plan, laying the groundwork to replace tariffs he imposed on almost every U.S trading partner.

The court’s decision was a major blow to Trump and an important legal victory for thousands of businesses that may now be eligible for tariff refunds.

Even so, Trump still has plenty of power to impose new tariffs to replace the old, and he is warning trading partners against celebrating with his critics.

“Any Country that wants to ‘play games’ with the ridiculous supreme court decision, especially those that have ‘Ripped Off’ the U.S.A. for years, and even decades, will be met with a much higher Tariff, and worse, than that which they just recently agreed to,” Trump wrote Monday in a post on Truth Social.
