  12. “His claimed #emergency is a figment of his own imagination: #TradeDeficits, which have persisted for decades without causing economic harm, are not an emergency,” the suit says.

    “Nor do these trade deficits constitute an ‘unusual & extraordinary threat.’”

    The Liberty Justice Center noted that the #Trump admin imposed #tariffs even on countries with which the US does NOT have a trade deficit, “further undermining the administration’s justification.”

  28. CW: USpol / Economics: are trade deficits bad for a country?

    If Canada exports more goods to the US than it imports from the US, then it sells more than it buys.

    To chief shopkeeper Donald Trump this looks as if Canada gets the better deal. He feels cheated and he gets angry. Hence the reach for the tariff machinery to curb imports from Canada.

    To the economist, this is flawed reasoning.

    Here is a well-argued piece by economist Douglas Irwin, written in plain English. It was published back in 2018 at the Chicago Booth website, under Trump 1.0. The are probably more recent analyses, but the principal arguments are unchanged.
