Lutnick expects Supreme Court to side with Trump on tariffs, opening door to $2K payouts
Lutnick says the administration has ‘all sorts of policies and tools’ if the court rules against tariffs
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said Monday the Trump administration is confident it will win its trade case before the Supreme Court, which centers on new tariffs the White House says are needed to defend American manufacturing against unfair foreign competition.
“Tariffs are going to be a part of this administration’s national security and national economic protection of the American people,” Lutnick told FOX Business’ Maria Bartiromo on “Mornings with Maria.”
“We are gonna win the case, it’s pretty clear,” he said, adding that he attended the oral arguments at the Supreme Court.

If it’s going to be a refund to people that actually paid taxes it’s one thing. Especially if based on the amount of taxes you paid. But if it’s just another $2000 worth of free stuff to people who already pay negative taxes then no.
