Tom Campbell: SCOTUS tariff ruling offers a lesson on statutory limits

Last Friday’s U.S. Supreme Court tariff decision was a workmanlike exercise of statutory analysis. The reaction from the administration was not. President Trump impugned the integrity and patriotism of the justices, claiming that “the court has been swayed by foreign interests.” Vice President Vance proclaimed, “This is lawlessness from the court, plain and simple,” a conclusion pronounced so soon after the court’s opinion was published as to suggest the vice president is a speed-reader of world-class ability.
