Congress seems to want a king?

Better hope this bill that house republicans have passed dies in the senate, since in effect it lets Trump override the courts: https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-hidden-provision-in-t...

It would be difficult, but arguably everything has been difficult for the congressional GOP as even when they ran the house during the last cycle they could barely operate. They struggled to pick leaders among their own party members numerous times.
It has been hard for the judicial system as well, with Trump ignoring injunctions and orders as if they were just advisory. I wonder if he will try that here as well? "Oh, the court said no tariffs, but I'm not even going to bother with an appeal to the Supreme Court and just use an executive order to invalidate...", here is hoping he doesn't do that.
It would be nice if some US marshals put Trump in jail for ignoring the court but we know nothing will come of it.

The quantity and capriciousness of these tariffs are certainly unusual.

The Biden admin not only kept the first Trump admin's China tariffs in place but significantly expanded them under the same law. Was Biden acting like a king or does this analogy only go one way? https://edition.cnn.com/2024/09/13/politics/china-tariffs-bi... https://web.archive.org/web/20250101032222/https://www.white...

Did Biden do that unilaterally claiming that a half-century economic trend was an EMERGENCY!!! or did he follow the legal process and negotiate with the Congress? They’ve delegated some powers but that’s not carte blanche.

Yeah, but did he use the same justification as trump is?
Like i think the court is just saying [article paywalled] that trump is going beyond what the law authorized, not that there is anything wrong with the law itself.

But those weren’t under the emergency economics power law Trump is using this time right?

#68Not saying this is good or bad, but this doesn’t seem surprising. Isn’t the point of our government structure to stop any one person from acting like a king. I’m surprised it took this long.
Congress seems to want a king?
A plurality of Americans voted for this government, for better or worse. The courts are one of the primary avenues for the minority to express their will, but they move slowly, although slightly faster than congress.

So he gets to flaunt the law because he's vindictive? Not a system I wanna live in.
That's why I'm worried. To me it's obvious he was extremely upset with all those court cases against him, and now the courts and the Fed Chair are just straight ignoring him. So is Putin.
What’s the alternative? Roll over and let him do whatever he wants?
