“It’s all computer”

Authority doesn't exist. He does likely have the power however.

He thinks he is a king, so....

I would find the enforcement of the statute as funny as the next person. But wouldn't the commerce secretary be initializing the tariff here not the president?

All that law is saying is that that specific law does not grant the President authority to regulate, it does not supersede any laws that do grant Presidential authority to regulate imports.

Tarrif authority granted to the President was done by the 1934 Trade agreement act, 1963 trade expansion act, and the 1974 Trade act. They give the President authority to impose tarrifs, for nantional security, nantional emergencies, or unfair trade practices. Even in those cases Congress has the ability to limit the president's power to impose tarrifs as they have the ultimate authority outlined in Article 1 section 8 of the constitution.

He might die if you hit him

He is 78 after all

To me it says "I'm one step away from convulsively ugly-snot-bawling on the ground and I don't know why - maybe I'll do some terrible shit to get some trollbabies to cheer me on"

I figure Trump will eventually demand that Japan refer to him as Trump-sama, since anything less would be disrespectful.

"You see, they like to spread their cartoons and big-eyed people or whatever...you know, why would they make their cartoons big-eyed. Big-eyed is very shameful...shameful like anyone who doesn't use my name. They call me Trump, President Trump...but my people tell me that they're being very disrespectful in their language. So my people tell me: "They should call you Trump-sama, you know? And I go, What's Trump-sama? And they say, Japanese people say sama when they really like you, you know, and that's why they should call me Trump-sama from now on. Very disrespectful."

There is a wall between Mexico and the US that was there long before Trump

If Americans are pirating the movies due to tariffs that actually hurts more than the tariffs themselves.

To me this says US media is now in the trade war and should be treated as such. It’s time for the boycotts and other actions to reduce US movie revenue.

I think this one is to prevent outside influence. American's rearly watch foreign films anyway.

Free trade agreements are also about patents, copyright, and other IP enforcement. Trump making a trade war means that at some point we could see random people trying sell coca cola with the logo or even just the real coca cola out of a third shift without recourse for corporate.

I wonder how that concept might play out with foreign media in the US. Could mean piracy without VPN and such.

Honestly it is going to take 50 years at least to recover

"I am now implementing a 200% tariff on Genshin Impact, for supporting Chai-na. Chai-na is trying to steal our money...all of our money...and they're doing it by tricking us with big-eyed freaks. Chai-na always talks about "the Rising Sun", so why would they make big eyes, you know? It make no sense. No sense. So we're gonna tariff them, and it'll be great, because we'll show the criminals and murderers who make that game what happens."
