About this listen
President Trump’s tariffs are legal, strategically necessary and crucial for preventing an economic crisis in America.
Under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) crafted by Congress in 1977, the President holds clear authority to declare a national emergency against any unusual or extraordinary foreign threat to America's security, foreign policy, or economy. This empowers decisive regulation of international commerce—including targeted tariffs—to neutralize the danger.
And the impact is undeniable: the Trump tariffs have flood the Treasury with billions in revenue, essential to taming our exploding $37 trillion debt. Social Security and Medicare barrel toward insolvency by 2034 or earlier, while interest payments alone devour over $1 trillion yearly. Without these tariffs, bankruptcy is inevitable. They’ve proven to be a lifeline reversing this fiscal catastrophe.
