The New York Times is a questionable source of info
If he can at least make the tingle down the legs of liberals be a stream of urine or die-oh-rhea, it will be mission accomplished in my mind.
Obviously it would need done via Congress. However, the assumption that it would create an unstable business environment can be addressed by doing just one thing in addition to the tariffs: reducing regulation and onerous bureaucratic "hoops" most American businesses tend to have to jump through. The tariffs, combined with relaxed regulation/taxation of American business, would create the perfect pro-business environment.
“What law gives the President the power to impose 35% tariffs on companies “moving jobs out of the country”? Creating an unstable business environment would discourage investment and reduce employment. “
What law gives government at any level the “right” to set the minimum wage? What gives the government ANY “right” to infringe any of the Bill of Rights? What give them the “right” to fine a baker for refusing to bake someone a cake? My guess is that a lot of these “government rights” are just stuff that the government gets away with, with the acquiescence of the courts. Trump needs to start replacing US Attorneys and Judges on day one.
“What law gives the President the power to impose 35% tariffs on companies “moving jobs out of the country”? Creating an unstable business environment would discourage investment and reduce employment”.
Yeah, cheap overseas labor is so much better..
You can count on the Republican Congress finally taking on the role of the “opposition party” with Trump ... something they have rarely done with obama.
The same one where Obama could ban Russian AKs, or surplus ammo with the stroke of a pen?
The price of Oreos is going up, I can hardly afford them now.
“Creating an unstable business environment would discourage investment and reduce employment”.”

That question has been answered numerous times here, and you should know it.
Trump has said he will reach a consensus with Congress, and he will.
Total nonsense.
Shark Tank's Kevin O'Leary predicts a YUGE stock market rally with a President Trump.

Donald Trump will be president and stocks will rally: O'Leary
He doesn’t have the power and I doubt he could get Congress to pass that law.
Reagan used tariffs. Get over it.
> “Donald J. Trump is now the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, but he is also keenly aware that many in his own party — and many Americans, frankly — are scared and anxious about the idea of him in the Oval Office. “
In 1980, the national news media tried to sway the public that Ronald Reagan had no foreign policy experience and as a result of his hard-line rhetoric would surely start WWIII with the Soviet Union.
The scare tactics didn’t work then, and will not work now.
Good article. Well worth an entire read. Thanks for posting it.
The counrty’s already in ression. The job losses will be huge by Nov. CA experiencing a 1 bil tax shortfall in April is just the tip of the iceberg.
Trump first task will be dealing with a world wide depression greater than the 1930s one. I hope he’s up to it.
If you question Trump on his policies you must want Hillary to win.
I predict most people will overlook the most important parts of this story, namely all of the conservative items on Trump’s 100 first days agenda.
The same law that permits them to abolish the IRS, Obamacare, Education, EPA, etc.....NONE...No president can do that without an executive order. It’s Congress. ALL the candidates play the same game. The difference is, I believe Trump will actually get the leadership of Congress together and cajole them to do it.
