Trump can get the senate's approval.

There can probably put tariffs in place instantly without the senate, because there is a provision for them in the WTO agreements when there are chronic trade deficits.

If you listen to Trump, he's not entirely for tariffs, but he will use them as a hammer to get a fair deal.

Listen to his Phoenix or his Las Vegas speech. He goes into detail about the things he can use as leverage to get fair deals out of our trading partners. (And I use the term trading partners lightly, because the trade is one way).

He also says he doesn't give a lot of specifics, because you don't negotiate that way. You have to stay flexible when you negotiate.

At this point, I am very much content that the man has the will to act even if he lacks a concrete plan. Will is what we need. Plans of action are easy. The will to act is what has been lacking for a very long time. I’ll take will over plan any day.

His strategy doesn't include rolling over because the road gets steep - he has already shown an ability to cut deep at those who do bad things to our livelihoods and it has a bunch of panties in a twist - willing to make the effort, no matter the odds, is an admirable (and rare these days) trait....

Presidents no longer require congressional approval to do anything, where have you been?
