Constitutionally, Congress controls tariffs. Congress chose to transfer that power to the President in dozens of statutes over the centuries. The Trade Expansion Act empowers Trump to use tariffs whenever needed for national security. The International Emergency Economic Powers Act empowers Trump to use tariffs in any emergency. The Trade Act empowers Trump to use tariffs to protect US industry and offset injurious foreign trade practices.
Trump’s tariff policy is both Constitutionally rooted and Congressionally approved, with a sound basis in national security and productive economy, reflecting a broader view of the purpose of the economy to make Americans more secure in all respects from foreign threats. As such, it conforms directly to the beliefs and intent of the founding generation.

"The problem with the evangelical elite is that there isn’t one. All too few evangelical Christians hold senior positions in the culture-shaping domains of American society. Evangelicals don’t run movie studios or serve as editors in chief of major newspapers or as presidents of elite universities. There are no evangelicals on the Supreme Court. There are hardly any leading evangelical academics or artists. There are few evangelicals at commanding heights of finance. The prominent evangelicals in Silicon Valley can be counted on one hand. There are not even many evangelicals leading influential conservative think tanks and publications, despite the fact that evangelicals are one of the largest and most critical voting blocs in the Republican coalition. Two domains are exceptions that prove the rule: politics and business."
