A ruling by the US Court of International Trade declared the majority of Trump's tariffs illegal, initiated by lawsuits from the Liberty Justice Center and 12 states, led by Oregon. Despite an appeal by the Trump administration, which temporarily paused the ruling's implementation, the situation offers an off-ramp from escalating tariffs. Trump's penchant for quick, erratic decisions faced ridicule, and his recent crypto dinner allowed major donors to gain direct access to him, raising significant funds and showcasing continued grift.
This week could well be viewed, in hindsight, as one of those-as the moment the wheels started to come off the Trump train.
The Trump administration instantly appealed this ruling and secured a temporary pause on its implementation, paradoxically it could give the imperial presidency something of an off-ramp from a tariff war.
Witness last week's crypto dinner, held at a Trump golf club outside of DC, at which top donors to the $Trump meme coin scheme got personal access to the grifter in chief.
Rolling Stone reported that the average amount attendees ponied up was $1 million.
