The Supreme Court striking down Donald Trump’s tariffs might have left more questions than answers. The president has guaranteed that he will still find a way to keep the tariffs in place for at least five months. More importantly, the court gave no clarification about whether the $175 billion in tariffs will be refunded.
The tariffs were not an easy pill for most businesses to swallow. When they were first introduced, there were personal stories about how people at different levels of the supply chain were being affected. From port workers complaining about reduced business, to farmers saying China had started ignoring American crops, and even giants like Amazon having to add more transparency about how the tariffs were affecting prices so as not to anger the White House.
