To avoid an economic catastrophe, Congress must take back the purse from Trump and immediately reassert its authority under the Constitution to decide if and when a tariff is imposed on other countries. Last Wednesday, Trump declared an illegal national emergency and imposed devastating global tariffs that are currently sinking the American and global economies. The Dow posted back-to-back losses of more than 1,500 points for the first time ever on Thursday and Friday, and it ended the day in red again. Trump's response? He golfed all weekend, previously stated he "couldn't care less" about the economic suffering of Americans, and the White House said it is not backing down today.
