Trump Scrambles to Pick Up the Pieces of Broken Tariffs

“The Trump administration has begun using a patchwork of trade laws to recreate the sweeping tariffs that the Supreme Court struck down as illegal last week,” the New York Times reports.

“But the approach will require a more cumbersome set of tariffs, ones that Mr. Trump will not be able to issue quickly or on a whim. The tariffs may be levied by country, trade issue or product and will probably take months to go into effect. The question now is how closely the old structure will be reproduced — or whether the new tariffs could end up creating an entirely different set of winners and losers.”
