The lower courts have both ruled that the bulk of Trump's tariffs are plainly unconstitutional. Now it has come to the Supreme Court, and it's arguably the moment the Conservatives on the court have been dreading. The case seems legally very clear that Trump has no case. The hearing that took place today sounded very much like a majority of them were sceptical of the arguments put before them. But Trump REALLY wants this power the way he can have it under this measure. While he could rebuild a higher tariff base with other measures, he couldn't so arbitrarily use the power to bully the world on a day-to-day basis. So how will they jump? Let's discuss.
