SCOTUS will likely be seated right in front of him tomorrow night. Any predictions on how bad he'll vent on them? A few days ago he was saying "the fucking court" and questioning their patriotism, telling them they'd abandoned the Constitution (I know, this is January Don talking.)
Predictions?

I hope they get up and walk out on his ass.
 
Toyota cancelled a nine billion dollar plant set for Alabama and is now going to place it in Canada.

Thanks Donny Dumbass.
 
India-US trade deal on hold. Canadian Prime Minister coming for trade and defense talks on 26 February.

If Uttar Pradesh was a country, it would have been the fifth largest country of the world by population.

Indeed, The Conservatives were unhappy with Carney not creating a deal and now it is looking like the right path. Not certain how many countries actually approved new deals with Trump. In most other countries stuff still needs to be passed in to law.

Stock market dropped 800 pts yesterday because Trump won't stop it with the damned tariffs.
 
Here is a convincing argument that Trump's newest tariffs are also illegal.

But the president misreads the statute. The provision is not about trade imbalances. Other parts of the statute address those. It is about financial imbalances — in particular ones that threaten financial stability.

The text and context of the law is clear: A Section 122 “payments problem” involves a flight from the U.S. dollar. At the moment, no such problem exists.

The president’s own lawyers essentially admitted as much months ago. In a filing in the earlier case, the Justice Department acknowledged that trade deficits are “conceptually distinct from balance-of-payments deficits,” citing the congressional history. And it suggested that Section 122 did not give the president the authority to impose tariffs to address trade deficits. (Section 122 does not “have any obvious application” where the concerns “arise from trade deficits,” the Justice Department’s lawyers wrote.)

Read the laughable legal memo behind the claim that Trump can declare a national voting emergency

There are “four immediately obvious problems” with this, legal expert Liza Goitein said.

Peter Ticktin, the Florida-based lawyer leading an effort to have President Donald Trump issue an executive order declaring a national emergency to enable a federal takeover of the upcoming midterm elections, shared his reasoning with Democracy Docket Thursday.

It was quickly torn to pieces by a leading expert on the president’s emergency powers.

Shortly after the Washington Post reported that the White House was taking Ticktin’s plan seriously, legal experts responded with ridicule, noting how blatantly unconstitutional it would be.

But Ticktin’s reasoning appears more flawed still, relying on economic sanctions law that conveys no authority whatsoever to block mail-in ballots or seize voting machines.
