Spending nights figuring out which tariffs apply to which imported goods is surely a well spent time for any business owner.

Yeah, complicated, costly and always changing regulations are great for doing business... /s

Complicated, costly, and, as it turns out, illegal.
Let’s see if the Supreme Court agrees. Dear Leader must be able to do as he pleases.
I think they will. If they don't see this as gross breakage of the Constitution, then we're cooked no matter what. Clearly there is no "national emergency" like a war or economic depression, so he's breaking the law, either that or the law doesn't mean anything in a legal or common sense interpretation, just the imaginings of a tinpot orange dictator.
We’ll see what the Supreme Court says, or what happens after he shuffles the deck a few times and yells at people more. :s

The underlying issue is complete chaos and confusion caused by this situation, not just any specific actual Tariff or not.

I think this won't be the last thing up Krasnov's (well the Project 2025 lawyers anyway) sleeve, I do think the SCOTUS will shoot down the tariffs though.
