[Trump's Tariff Rhetoric Triggers Chain Reaction, US Government Hit by Wave of Corporate Lawsuits] ⑴ As Trump's tariff rhetoric continues to escalate, the US federal government is facing an unprecedented wave of legal challenges. Data shows that over 900 companies have filed lawsuits against the US regarding related tariff policies, placing immense pressure on the judicial system and the executive branch. ⑵ These lawsuits were previously dismissed by the US Supreme Court, but the companies have not given up and are continuing to seek relief through other legal avenues. Such a large-scale class-action lawsuit reflects the widespread dissatisfaction and anxiety within the business community regarding current trade policies. ⑶ From a legal perspective, companies primarily question whether the executive branch has exceeded its legal authority in tariff decisions. The core demand of the lawsuits is for the courts to review the legality of the tariffs and seek a rebalancing of trade remedy measures. ⑷ Market observers point out that the evolution of this legal storm will directly impact future trade policy directions. If companies win some of the lawsuits, it may force the authorities to adjust current tariff strategies; conversely, if the government continues to win, it means that the executive branch will have greater discretion in the trade field. Regardless of the outcome, this wave of lawsuits will have a profound impact on the cross-border trade environment.
