His job isn’t to favor conservative policies but to ensure policies are lawful. This was bound to happen.

Roberts had the reputation of being conservative prior to becoming a Supreme Court justice, but hasn't been very conservative since. I have a friend who is a law professor at U of Iowa...he says you don't really know how they are going to rule until they get there. Amy Commie Barrett has been a total bust as well, but the signs were there. A Bush-ite and recommended by McConnell. Thomas and Alito are the only two who are reliable.

There are at least 3 other paths the president can take to lay out similar appropriate tariffs.
This was hardly unexpected

@ineedadrink Very true. But there was a bit of disagreement regarding the ruling.
"Justice Brett Kavanaugh called the Supreme Court’s decision striking down Trump’s emergency tariffs "illogical" in a fiery dissent on Friday and offered a roadmap of alternatives for Trump to attempt to carry out his signature economic policy.
Kavanaugh, a Trump appointee, said the 6-3 majority cherry-picked ways in which Trump could regulate imports under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, making what he said was a textualist case that the law already allows similar forms of regulation on imports, including quotas and embargoes. Tariffs are not just in the same category as those but are a "far more modest" alternative to them, Kavanaugh said.
"If quotas and embargoes are a means to regulate importation, how are tariffs not a means to regulate importation? Nothing in the text supports such an illogical distinction," Kavanaugh wrote."
