So, after tarrifs were declared an illegal tax and the money now needing to be refunded, I guess they’ll just give it to the businesses who will have a nice boon in revenue, won’t reduce the prices, and we all can just eat shit?

It was obviously Trump’s idea to begin with, and the GOP haaaates the idea of giving away even twenty cents to a starving orphan so they have been grinding their teeth on this idea for a while now.
Trump is not republican. He’s not anything. He’s a colossal, spiteful, angry, narcissistic old man who just wants people to love him. He’s been very consistent that way. He would break whatever rules and regulations there and do whatever he’s told will help to get that outcome of being loved by people, it just so happens that his hatefulness aligned better with the republicans this round.
In some alternate timeline, Trump is our greatest president ever as he became a useful tool for an upstanding, socialist-majority congress and senate who use his willingness to trample tradition and regulation to pass sweeping reforms of our entire country’s oppressive financial systems. Just doing whatever he’s told so people can cheer his name.
He may not be a Republican in ideology but his actions absolutely align with Republican policies. That’s why they keep him as their puppet figurehead.
