What are the consequences if Trump ignores the ruling, the Dems in Congress write strongly worded op-eds in the Washington Post?

Would the people who get charged them not be able to just tell the Customs to fuck off? Or does the stuff just get physically prevented from leaving ports until they pay?

From what I have read in American model railway subs* on reddit it's much like customs duty - the goods won't be released from the port of entry until the tariff is paid. Many Yanks were under the impression that the supplier would pay the tariff. They were not happy when they found out how tariffs work.


*Rails of Sheffield apparently does quite a lot of trans-Atlantic trade. Yank modellers love British steam.

The orange shithead has reacted thus:

Trump announces new 10% global tariff as he hits out at 'deeply disappointing' Supreme Court ruling

C'mon Mother Nature (or cholesterol), do your stuff...

Twerps.

I'm surprised as they're HO kiddies and we're OO, but then and again the HRCA has a lot of members in USAnia... and here's me, who's just bought a rather lovely Jouef SNCF 141R to go with his "HOrnby-acHO" SNCF carriages...

I see Supreme Court Judge Brett Kavanaugh has come out batting for Trump. I'm guessing that right wing rapists (allegedly) have to stick together.

Trump's up to 15% tariffs now. This is of course a well-worked out response, not somebody flailing around looking for the flimsiest justification.

I was surprised Kavanaugh voted with Trump on this. Seemed like such an obvious nonsense, and Kavanaugh himself has actually been the Trump appointee most likely to vote against Trump when it matters (ie when Trump loses 5-4).

Thomas and Alito are of course the worst of the lot.

Trump curious why Iran has not 'capitulated', US envoy Witkoff says

Probably because they're not scared of you.

In his interview with Fox News, Witkoff said: "I don't want to use the word 'frustrated'... because he [Trump] understands he's got plenty of alternatives, but he's curious as to why they haven't... I don't want to use the word 'capitulated', but why they haven't capitulated."

"Why, under this sort of pressure, with the amount of sea power and naval power that we have over there, why haven't they come to us and said, 'We profess that we don't want a weapon, so here's what we're prepared to do?'"

What is it with Yanks and incoherency?

"...the amount of sea power and naval power..."

Aren't these just two different ways of saying the same thing?

Fucking idiot.
