The Wall Street Journal has praised the U.S. Court of International Trade's decision blocking President Trump's tariffs, highlighting a critical moment for the rule of law in the U.S. The editorial stresses that Trump's application of tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) was unlawful, illustrating that the President cannot bypass Congress. While Trump believes he can impose tariffs using various legal avenues, the editorial cautions him to heed the court's ruling and reconsider his tariff policies, which have been termed damaging to the economy by the Journal, a notable critic of his trade strategies.
The Wall Street Journal took a victory lap over President Donald Trump and his destructive tariff obsessions in a new editorial celebrating the U.S. Court of International Trade's ruling blocking his Liberation Day tariffs.
This is an important moment for the rule of law as much as for the economy, proving again that America doesn't have a king who can rule by decree.
