President Donald Trump - J.D. Vance Administration

[Buddy’s Bandit]

Don't worry - nothing as childish as renaming the gulf of Mexico

I would be willing to bet you on that….

It's hard for me to understand how anyone can help but worship him.
He is nothing short of the present day savior.......basically, this country's only hope of Salvation.

That's what you guys did w/Barry Obama & his man wife.

He's an insane person who doesn't care about rights or freedom at all. It's time to get off the train, people. You're looking worse by the minute. "He's not Kamala" no longer works. That's over. It's just him standing alone and the emperor has no clothes.

Depends. When it does well under a president people support, it is. When it doesn't do well under that president, it isn't. When it does well under a president people oppose, it isn't. When it doesn't do well under that president, it is.

It’s soo obvious Zelensky wants to keep the gravey train running for his own personal benefit. Trump appears to won again…..ending this three year long slaughter of Ukrainians/Russians.

Why didnt Joe do this??? We know why….$.

That covers tariffs/exports between states. Is one of our states talking about leveling tariffs on other states?

Article I, Section 9, Clause 5:

No Tax or Duty shall be laid on Articles exported from any State.

Article 1, Section 9, Clause 5 of the U.S. Constitution prohibits Congress from laying taxes and duties on articles exported from any state.1Known as the Export Clause,2 it applies to taxes and duties, not user fees.3 The Supreme Court has interpreted the Export Clause to address shipments only to foreign countries, not shipments to unincorporated territories, such as Puerto Rico and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.4

Footnote 4:
Jump to essay-4Dooley v. United States, 183 U.S. 151, 153–54 (1901); see also Swan & Finch Co. v. United States, 190 U.S. 143, 144–45 (1903) (explaining 'export’ as used in the Constitution and laws of the United States, generally means the transportation of goods from this to a foreign country); see generally Christina Duffy Burnett, United States: American Expansion and Territorial Deannexation, 72 U. Chi. L. Rev. 797, 800 (2005) (explaining the U.S. Supreme Court’s doctrine of territorial incorporation divided domestic territory . . . into two categories: those places ‘incorporated’ into the United States and forming an integral part thereof (including the states, the District of Columbia, and the ‘incorporated territories'); and those places not incorporated into the United States, but merely ‘belonging’ to it (which came to be known as the ‘unincorporated territories')).

That was my first thought too. I was incorrect.

 

[evillawyer]

by a show of hands, how many think this tariff idea is a good one?

 

[C-south]

So you love Putin.

Is Trump or someone else proposing a tax on exports? If so I haven't heard about it.

You’re arguing with the wrong person, again.

 

[hog88]

I know it's difficult to get your knuckles to stop dragging on the ground, but by a show of hands, how many think this tariff idea is a good one?

It's too early to make that determination. It could be disastrous and if so Trump can kiss his congressional majority goodbye in 2026. It could also lead to more favorable trade deals and a robust economy within a year or two. It will go one of the two ways.

That was no argument, it was a question.

It saddens me that those Italian Trumpers don't want to send their troops to help Ukraine.

 

[RockyTop85]

Ok. You’re “asking” the wrong person.

I only provided library of congress annotations explaining the export clause.

Thank you for providing that.

Rosie Perez is my spirit guide.

right, they should have focused on renaming the important things, like Aunt Jemima

 

[Sea Ray]

So Trump is crashing the economy due to these tariffs all because of fentanyl? Seriously?

 

[PEPPERJAX]

Rosie Perez is my spirit guide.

Really? Where is she guiding you to?

 

[PEPPERJAX]

Agreed

Let the junkies die and punish the dealers of that nasty $hit.

I approve! It's what needs to be done to put a stop to it!

It's been 12 hours - plenty of time to come up with a hot take...
