...President Donald Trump’s reciprocal tariffs have left Chinese Communists scrambling, markets in chaos, and Democrats feeling more isolated, irrelevant, and bent on revenge than ever before.

The Left is so desperate to make sure President Trump’s tariffs don’t give U.S. workers more money that they’ve sunken into downright illegal actions to try to sabotage his agenda....

...Obviously, the Democrats’ actions are completely illegal. The Constitution says states cannot opt out of trade agreements negotiated by the federal government. Article I, Section 8, Clause 3 vests Congress with the power “To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations....
