Has alternatives to impose duties the president of the USADonald Trump, through other “diodes”, if his appeal to the Supreme Court is not justified in order to overturn yesterday’s court ruling.
A Federal Court of Appeal offered President Donald Trump temporarily suspended due to a court ruling that threatened to reject most of his duties on tariffs, giving at least some hope to a white house now facing significant new restrictions on his attempt to rewrite.
The government celebrated the US Court of Appeal’s ruling on the federal circuit as a ratification of its promise to aggressively challenge the ruling issued last Wednesday night (28.5.25) by the Court of Justice of International Trade and which is blocking its offenses.
White House officials also stressed that Trump has options to pursue similar duties through other principles, if the appeals ultimately fail, even when they planned to continue to defend the legitimacy of duties under the law on the law on international economic powers.
However, for a president who wishes to use commercial policy to quickly reshape global trade, other options would be more complex and would commit the threats to the process of negotiating with other world leaders. Some US duties alternatives are painful to use and it would take months to be executed, while others have a limited scope and duration.
Trump welcomed the decision of the Court of Appeal in a post on social media on Thursday night, while describing the original decision “so wrong and so political”! He argued that the search for approval by Congress for duties would prevent his commercial agenda and “would completely destroy the presidential power”.
“Let us hope that the Supreme Court will overthrow this horrible, threatening ruling, fastest and determined,” Trump told the post.
Despite the temporary suspension, the likelihood that the Court of Appeal could eventually restore the original decision and block Trump’s tariff policy was heavy over the White House. Separately, a second federal judge illegally declared a series of Trump contributions adopted using emergency power, but limited his decision to the family -run business that resorted and delayed the entry into force of the order for 14 days to give the ministry time.
“America cannot work if President Trump – or any other president, on this subject – leave their sensitive diplomatic or trade negotiations being influenced by activist judges,” White House spokesman Karolin Levit. “After all, the Supreme Court must put an end to it for the good of our Constitution and our country.”
The original ruling of the court would give the government just 10 days to undo the contributions. But the new decision set an information schedule that will last until June 9th to decide the demand for a longer -term suspension. If accepted – or if a subsequent appeal to the Supreme Court is accepted – the duties could remain in force for months.
Despite the confidence of Trump’s team, Wednesday’s initial court ruling marked one of the biggest failures of the president’s second term. Trump made a campaign for the use of duties to combat what he calls for unjustly treating the US from other nations, and his emergency law gave him the fastest way to fulfill his promise.
The decision will reduce the actual US duty rate to less than 6% from its high 27% last month, according to Bloomberg Economics calculations, an astronomical level that poses the risk of stagnation for the US.
The legal struggle also threatens to cause even greater uncertainty in a global economy already shaken by Trump’s ever -changing stance on import taxes. It can reduce Trump’s leverage as his team negotiates with numerous commercial partners seeking tariff relief.
The Commercial Court’s ruling on Wednesday blocked duties in Mexico, Canada, China, and a single import tax for almost every US trade partner. Trump cited IEEPA on the grounds that fentanyl and commercial deficits are every time emergency situations that necessarily need to use executive power. The court ruled that it did.
The White House said on Thursday that he was considering other options, but consultants have recognized the possibility of being more time -consuming.
“There are different approaches that would take a few months to put into effect and using procedures that have been approved in the past or approved in the previous government, but we are not planning to follow them right now,” National Financial Council Director Kevin Hasset said at Fox Business.
However, in the midst of increasing concern about the vulnerability of Trump’s duties based on IEPA, the government has already adopted separate legal authorities to pursue other contributions.
The Trump government cited Article 232 of the Act on Expansion of Trade to prepare the ground for sweeping contributions that could touch everything, from smartphones to aircraft engines.
Since taking over Trump’s duties in January, the Ministry of Commerce has already established duties of section 232 for steel, aluminum, vehicles and car spare parts and has launched trucks, copper, timber, semiconductor, semiconductor, critical miners.
These duties are considered legally less vulnerable to Ad hoc’s approach to a nation, but it takes months to come into force. Investigations usually end up in findings within 270 days, but government officials have stressed that they can move forward faster.
“I can assure you, an American people, that the Trump duty agenda is alive, healthy, healthy and will be implemented to protect you, save your jobs and factories,” Commerce Consultant Peter Navarro told reporters.
Navarro said US Commercial Representative Jameson Green will soon deal with other streets. “Any commercial lawyer knows that this is a number of different options we can follow,” Navarro said.
A change of strategy could be time consuming, extending both the uncertainty of Trump’s tariff policy and the timetable to see an internal political impact.
