Ari Melber on Trump Over Tariff Loss: All the Court Said Was ‘You Have to Work with Congress on This’

RUSH EXCERPT:MELBER: "You’re not a king. And the taxing power. And I’m sure Stephanie can brief us on how consumers and businesses are affected, but I don’t think anyone doubts they are affected. And so the whole reason the Congress, which is the most democratic every two years piece of this has to be involved, is that the Founders and framers originally said, when it comes to taxing, when it comes to how people are living, what they’re paying their jobs, their relationship with the government, their direct representatives are involved. And that’s the funny part of all of this. Just to zoom back, all all the court really said was you’d have to work with Congress on this. A lot of other presidents might say, okay, we know what this president is like. And he was asked about it today and says, no, I’m going to find my loopholes. I’m going to give you a temporary five month thing. His party controls Congress. Maybe not enough of them agree with him on this idea now that we’re months into it. But this was a democracy ruling. And I say for democracy, not in a partizan way. And that sense, it was a good news day."
