The Supreme Court's silence on President Donald Trump's trade agenda is not neutral ground. Each month without a ruling keeps his tariff machine humming, preserves his leverage abroad, and deepens the political and economic stakes at home.

The US Supreme Court on Wednesday did not issue the ruling on legality on Trump tariffs.

Trump's decision to impose tariffs on almost every major economy also sparked legal challenge that questioned the extent of his presidential authority and the legality of the tariffs imposed.
