Tariffs (and other new taxes) must be approved by Congress.
Trump unconstitutionally imposed them by EO using a made-up emergency to bypass Congressional approval.
Enjoy your dictatorship.
Interesting viewpoint, but false. They gave that power to potus with an emergency powers act.
You think with the 10,000 lawsuits Dems have filed against Trump, they just ignored that?
Yes, a made-up emergency.
Oh, it will end up in court. Don't you worry about that.
Probably deliberately delayed until after old age, syphilis and obesity have killed Trump.
Fascinating. I can’t imagine spending even a paragraph attacking England’s psychopathic inbred lunatic ruling class. I genuinely feel sorry for whatever is left of your country.
ICE existed long before Trump. So did our border. Tariffs are entirely constitutional, and enacted at the pleasure of POTUS.
Our economy is doing pretty great, compared to most (ahem Europe).
Agree that supporting Israel’s genocide is a huge mistake, for what that’s worth. But the Dems left us no alternative to vote for. Sorry not sorry.
Slag off my government/ruling class all you like. I'd likely agree with much of what you say.
Just don't come up with crap about no-go zones where the police are afraid to patrol, Tommy Robinson (not his real name) being a political prisoner or bullshit about imprisonment for Nazi saluting dog videos.
Yeah, I’d hate to put you on a watchlist by mentioning the migrants raping and harassing kids, then being anonymized and protected by your legal system. The bobbies aren’t afraid - they’re ordered to protect it.
Literal tribal/sharia law zones, and you aren’t even allowed to discuss it without a visit and eventual arrest from the state.
But don’t worry, we will keep English common law alive for you here, when you care to come over through a legal process.
Yes, that's just the sort of nonsense I expected.
I can't be bothered to go through every falsehood, but the Sharia law you talk about is the equivalent of a family law court. Voluntary arbitration for Muslims on things like divorce settlements. Absolutely no legal powers (again, voluntary) and not available to non-Muslims. Far fewer powers than your HOA telling you what colour you can paint your front door or what plants you are allowed to grow in your gardens.
Not the cutting off of hands for theft or stonings for adultery that you are imagining.
I remember going through all this about 10 years ago on the DCF.
You also made the argument that calling morning prayer at 5 am over loudspeakers was okay because reasons. You claim not to be a Marxist. You believe in Climate Change. No one here listens to you because your arguments are disingenuous and insulting because you think you're smarter or wiser or have more information or God gave you special abilities to know the truth. You come here because you're a sadist who enjoys being irritating.

Don’t worry, you’ll never have to worry about those pesky freedoms again. Just remember to support Current Thing.

1977 you absolute tool. What are you even doing, you know we aren’t lightweights around here.

It's not the act that's made up, it's the emergency.
Of course it is. Everything has been an ‘emergency’ since 1971. We’ve been debasing money like maniacs ever since, to maintain the empire that keeps Europe viable. Now we’re running out of IOUs and we’re the bad guys.
