Supreme court cannot rule against all tariffs. Some tariffs will remain and adminstration can “reclassify”.

Though presumably they may require congressional approval for the tariffs?
I believe the president has the right to impose tariffs if it is for national security reasons. National security can be widely applied towards many products like food and major inputs like tech, metals, drugs, etc.

Therefore, the administration can simply re-classify any existing tariffs that are not justified for national security reasons and fall within this product mix.
