Trump has been talking about giving Americans a $2, 000 check from tariff money. But there's a big problem: new laws need to be made for this to happen.
Trump said the money would come next year. He thinks the U. S. has enough money from tariffs to do this. But others aren't so sure. They say only Congress can decide how to spend federal money. And it's not clear if Trump has enough support to make this happen.
Trump has been a big fan of tariffs. He calls people who disagree with him "fools. " But even the Supreme Court justices, from both sides, have questioned if Trump can really do this.
There's also a question about who would get this money. Trump says it's for working families. But he hasn't said exactly who would qualify. Some think it could be a tax cut instead of a direct payment.
So, while Trump has big plans for this money, it's not clear if it will actually happen. It's a good reminder that even the president can't do everything alone. They need the support of others to make big changes.
