Trump's Tariffs Stay, for Now, Court Rules

President Trump's tariffs can stay, For now, an appeals court has said to stay.

News illustration
In the White House, a decision was made,
To appeal a ruling, the president had played.
A trade court had said his tariffs were wrong,
And the president's power had been overstepped all day long.
He'd imposed duties on goods from far and wide,
China, Mexico, and Canada, he'd tried.
But the court said no, it was not his right,
To impose such taxes without a fight.
The president was furious, he took to his page,
Tweeting about the court's decision, in a rage.
He said it was horrible, a threat to the land,
And he hoped the Supreme Court would take a stand.
But the appeals court said, "Wait just a minute,
We'll let the tariffs stay, for now, it's not a sin."
They granted a reprieve, a temporary stay,
So the president's duties could remain in play.
The White House was happy, they'd won a small fight,
But the battle's far from over, it's still in sight.
The case will go on, to the Supreme Court's door,
Where the final decision will be made, and the tariffs will roar.
The business owners, they're still in a bind,
Uncertainty's the word, they're left to unwind.
They hope for a resolution, a clear path to take,
But for now, they're stuck, with the tariffs at stake.
The president's still got his tariffs in place,
But the court's decision has weakened his trade face.
It's a negotiation, where the stick's no longer strong,
And the countries he's trying to deal with, will not be wrong.
