Haberman calls the ruling a “big blow” of the Trump business schedule
National political correspondent Maggie Haberman said that the most recent ruling from the Court of Appeal regarding the comprehensive definitions of President Trump represents a “major blow” of the Trump administration’s agenda.
“This is what many people who follow commercial issues were concerned about it, the result they expected, frankly,” Haberman told CNN’s Jake Tapper in an interview on Friday evening. “As you know, the president used many emergency powers in many situations that many people who watch them are not thinking as emergency. It was always difficult.”
“The more the process increases, the United States will end in a position if the Supreme Court supports this ruling.” “He will surely go to the Supreme Court.”
The veteran journalist in the New York Times indicated that if the ruling is not reversed at the appeal, the United States may be asked in the future to pay foreign commercial partners in exchange for additional import taxes.
“This becomes very complicated,” she said. “Therefore, this is a big blow to the president’s work schedule. He sometimes ignored the courts. We’ll see what this looks.”
Her comments came a few hours after the ruling of the Federal Appeal Court against the Trump administration’s use of emergency authorities to justify the global definitions of the president. In Resolution 7-4, the American Court of Appeal of the Federal Department confirmed the judgment of the lower court that the definitions are not authorized under the IEEPA Economic Forces Law (IEPA), which the President used to justify his basic lines and “affiliated” duties on foreign imports.
Trump late on Friday, was subjected to the result, describing the definitions as the “best tool” to support workers and companies in the United States
“Today, the Party Appeal Court is very incorrectly said that our tariff must be removed, but they know that the United States of America will eventually win,” he wrote in a post on the social truth, following the decision. “If these definitions go at all, it will be a complete disaster for the country.”
“It would make us financially weak, and we have to be strong,” the president continued. “The United States of America will not tolerate a tremendous trade deficit, unfair definitions, and non -tariff commercial barriers imposed by other countries, a friend or enemy, undermining manufacturers, farmers and everyone else.”
The referee, the latest hiccup, will not apply to Trump’s trade war, until mid -October, giving management time to appeal.
