    The tariff is unenforceable. How will they be able to track intangible things?

      “We will stop all of those big cargo ships full of movies from Mexico and put fines on all those big trucks on the highway from Canada… They are very big… some say they are the biggest… I was in a movie once… the best movie…”

      I think that’s how his brain talks? Idk

    The legal authority they are citing the gives the executive the tariff power specifically says it can’t be used for “informational materials”. This exemption, known as the Berman amendments, was added to ensure that the president cannot use IEEPA to block the flow of foreign audiovisual media

        What I meant was “do we know what Trumps final decisions look like, because all we get is waffling.”

        But I can’t disagree with you either.
