Trump is even using Tariff threats to strong-arm other countries to retreat on their climate goals [1]. If the Supreme Court agrees that the Trump can do this then that means we have a dictator — one that will do way more harm than the one in North Korea.

Seeing reality as it is doesn't make it black and white or blind. The dude hocked beans out of the White House for personal profit.

Actually, that’s what called an evidence-based conclusion. I know evidence and science have really taken a plunge in our federal government these past few months, but we can still use them on HN.

So how come "half the country" (millions of people) support and appreciate the tariff ordeal due to its positive economic impact in their personal lives? They're not Trump's friends or family.

You have the wrong evidence and conclusion.
