Ben Shapiro on SCOTUS/Tariffs: ‘This Is Obviously a Correct Decision ... Should Be 9-0’

EXCERPT:

SHAPIRO: “Now the question is, what can be delegated, what can’t be delegated, and what also has been delegated? So, obviously, in certain specified context, Congress has delegated specific tariff authority to the president. But at any point, did Congress just say to the president, 'You can tariff anybody for any reason, interminably, at any rate that you want?' And the answer there, says the Supreme Court, is no. Now, it's sort of a fascinating breakdown. I agree with the decision legally. I think this is obviously a correct decision from the Supreme Court. We’ll get to start the fascinating dissent in a second, because the breakdown, which was 6-3 — in my opinion, it should have been 9-0, but it was 6-3 for a couple of interesting reasons. Justice Roberts wrote the opinion, it was joined by Sotomayor, Kagan, Gorsuch, Barrett and Jackson. The more traditionally textualist-leaning members of the court actually voted in favor of upholding the tariffs. That would be Alito, Thomas, Kavanaugh joined with them. Now, as you know, I may Clarence Thomas stan, like, his biggest fan, so it takes a lot for me to disagree with Justice Thomas. This is a rare case where I disagree with Justice Thomas. And also huge Alito stan. A rare case where I disagree with Justice Alito."
