Do you think tariff grandpa is going to successfully broadly collect tariff revenue while this court order is in place or not

Will he stand at the port with his hand out saying "fuck you pay me", no.

Will he tell people they have to collect tariffs regardless of the courts decision, yes. Under threat of *insert creative threat here* also, yes.

Will collectors claim tariffs are due regardless and will people be afraid of and/or pay them, also yes.

Will there be millions of lawsuits settled in 2045 when they get around to it, sure! Doesn't unbankrupt anyone in 2025.

Sidenote all the tariffs so far are nothing but market manipulation anyway. He's going to keep saying it, no court can make him stop saying it's happening.

Yup people gonna buy dips and sell based on his bullshit and make some $$. Corps are gonna jack up price of items and blame tariffs that don't actually exist or "The threat of a tariff, we gotta protect our yachts". Ol Donnie's gonna keep talking about it until he gets even the tiniest of win, then call it all a win and how amazing and great the whole effort was and that he's now going to step back from them...and then come back to them 1 month later anyways.

Trump has talked non stop about Tariffs for years and years as being this amazing thing...yet doesn't understand them at all. He's not gonna just roll over.

The big MAHA report was almost certainly written with AI, which hallucinated a bunch of sources to back up the claims.

Gamestop is already doing this. They hiked up the prices of Transformers that just came out due to the pending tariff's, and even though they are paused, they are still keeping the prices up.

Gamestop really needs to cease to exist. Fuck that place

Greedflation once again

[Tymon]

They barely even do exist as far as I know at this point.

Rapidly shrinking footprint, they barely even sell video games anymore. Constantly getting robbed.

I'm sure the Switch 2 will help them a lot.

I love that the report is 'backed on good science that has never been recognized by the federal government'. That's just amazing. I can't wait to see the sources for this never before recognized "science".

That's the neat part, you won't!

I had 4min of hope before you crushed my dreams...that's really more than I could have hoped for. RIP "science"

Update: Just after 3 p.m. Thursday, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued a brief order granting the Trump administration's request to pause an earlier ruling that voided several of the president's tariffs.

As a result, those tariffs have been reinstated for now.

Don't know what will come out of this.

But pretty amusing that the Art of the Wriggle didn't apply to Musk on this one.

My friends were talking about the president being killed and I came here expecting to find news, I then asked and they were talking about Helldivers.
