Trump called justices who blocked his tariffs a ‘disgrace to the nation’ while praising three justices who dissented
He praised the three justices who dissented in the opinion – Brett Kavanaugh who wrote the main dissent, joined by Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. The others – including two of his appointees, Amy Coney Barrett and Neil Gorsuch – drew his derision.
“They’re just being fools and lapdogs for the Rinos [Republicans in name only] and the radical left Democrats, and not that they should have anything at all to do with it,” Trump said. “They’re very unpatriotic and disloyal to our constitution.”
Trump said he would immediately sign an order increasing tariffs globally by 10% under section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 and will begin investigations of unfair trade practices allowing further tariffs. He asserted that he had the authority to impose additional tariffs under existing statutes without referring to congressional approval.
Spoiled pissbaby throws yet another tantrum, more at 11.
This guy just wakes up every morning and starts vomiting shit everywhere, I swear. How does he even live with himself?
Just your daily reminder that the President of the United States is a deranged lunatic.
I think you mean child rapist.
Both things can be true.
Those things aren’t exclusive
You say that as if one precludes the other.
So SCOTUS hands him a loss and he’s deciding to punish who exactly?
All of us. Because we destroyed his kiddie time network and forced him to kill his friend to save himself.
There was no need to name the three dissenting justices, we all knew who they were automatically.
Kavnaugh’s dissenting opinion was pretty interesting. It essentially boiled down to 2 points:
-
Fixing it would be really messy
-
SCOTUS didn’t tell them how exactly to fix it
Basically, the executive can grant itself any new authority as long as it creates a big enough mess before SCOTUS can step in. So if Trump were to declare war on Canada and launch missiles at Toronto, Kavnaugh’s opinion is that the war powers act no longer applies and everything was totally legal because the situation is too messy and SCOTUS can’t broker a peace deal.
He’s not really that good of a lawyer so don’t be so hard on him.
-
At this point the republicans will impeach him before the democrat win the chamber
Need 2/3 of the senate, and I don’t see the Democrats voting to Impeach the Liberal Justices
ROFL Any1 surprised?
