Can the president unilaterally impose global tariffs? The Supreme Court heard arguments over whether Donald Trump exceeded his authority by using emergency powers to tax imports — and even his own appointed justices seemed skeptical.
Bakari Sellers joins Sara Sidner (in for Abby Phillip), Ben Shapiro, Ana Kasparian, and Isabel Brown on CNN’s NewsNight to debate presidential power, economic fallout, and what happens if the Court strikes down Trump’s tariffs.
Key Topics Discussed:
- Supreme Court’s review of Trump’s use of emergency powers to impose global tariffs
- Conservative justices’ skepticism of presidential overreach
- Constitutional debate over Congress’s exclusive power to tax
- Economic ripple effects for farmers, automakers, and global markets
