最高法院周三见分晓，特朗普关税命运系于其亲手任命的三位大法官

Core Viewpoint - The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear a significant case regarding Trump's global tariffs, which could impact billions in refunds and the fate of tariffs imposed during his presidency [1][2]. Group 1: Case Background - The case is described as potentially the "most important" by Trump, determining the legality of tariffs based on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977, which does not explicitly authorize tariff imposition [1]. - A federal court previously blocked Trump's tariff policy, ruling that he overstepped his authority by imposing tariffs on countries with a trade surplus with the U.S. [1]. Group 2: Supreme Court Dynamics - The Supreme Court currently has a 6-3 conservative majority, with three justices appointed by Trump playing a crucial role in the case [2]. - The justices' past indications suggest that they may not uniformly support Trump's claims of broad presidential power in imposing tariffs [2]. Group 3: Individual Justices' Perspectives - Kavanaugh is seen as the most likely to support Trump's tariff policy, emphasizing presidential power in national security matters, but may view the case as a question of congressional authority over tariffs [3][4]. - Gorsuch's position is more uncertain; as a textualist, he may challenge the legal basis for Trump's tariffs, questioning the invocation of a law that does not explicitly mention tariffs [4][5]. - Barrett, also a textualist, may oppose the tariffs, viewing them as a significant policy decision that requires congressional authorization [6]. Group 4: Chief Justice's Considerations - Chief Justice Roberts tends to focus on the practical implications of court decisions rather than strict legal doctrines, which could influence his vote [7]. - The justices may require strong legal arguments before confronting the president directly, indicating a cautious approach to the case [8].
