President Trump attends a meeting with leaders from the steel and aluminum manufacturing industries in Washington on March 1.
The Trump administration recently dropped its threat to jack up the sweeping tariffs it previously imposed on $200 billion worth of imported Chinese goods, which should come as a relief to the many U.S. businesses and consumers that are paying them. On the other hand, President Trump may be moving closer to slapping tariffs on imported cars, trucks and auto parts, despite widespread opposition to the move — including from the Big Three U.S. automakers.
Simply put, Trump likes tariffs. They give him a bigger stick in trade talks with countries whose economies are sustained by exports, such as China, much of Europe and South Korea. And he has wide latitude to levy them, thanks to the power Congress has entrusted to the president since 1934.But 20th century lawmakers probably did not envision a chief executive using tariffs the way Trump has. And now that Trump is wielding import duties like a club on U.S.
Trump’s contorting of the law on national-security-based tariffs is just one of several ways he has stretched the limits of presidential power.In particular, they are seeking to pull back some of the authority Congress granted the White House in 1962, at the height of the Cold War.
