How is the verdict in a Brazilian court about Bolsonaro the kind of emergency that would allow Trump to employ punishing tariffs on Brazil?

Will the SC back even this up? The guy is an "executive" not a king or a dictator! In principle at least. When will the Rs in Congress finally get a spine and get serious?

President Trump made his demands to Brazil very clear: Drop the charges against former President Jair Bolsonaro of attempting a coup.

To show he was serious, he hit Brazil with punishing tariffs, launched a trade investigation and imposed some of the most severe sanctions at his disposal against the Supreme Court justice overseeing the case.
