No, he cannot. You don't know the law and you obviously are not familiar with a bill of attainder.

Trump cannot impose tariffs on a company for taking jobs outside the US.  You don't know what the hell you're talking about and should stop.
He can impose a tariff on goods coming into this country, That's not a bill of attainder.
Trump is for America First.

The only thing I liked about TOS was that the OP would sometimes have the courtesy to alert those opening the thread with a BARF ALERT... :laugh:

Wow, not a thing related to the Constitutional role of Commander in Chief. Just another authoritarian promising unicorns that poop ice cream cones-- this time in the R flavor.

A strawman.  You originally said that Trump could punish American businesses for moving jobs overseas.  It has been amply demonstrated on this thread that he can't.

You've lost this argument.  Bye.

Let's take a look shall we... hmmmm. Article 2 Section 2... Nope, not in the Presidential authority.

Why, that seems to be Congressional power, not Presidential, directly from Article 1, section 8..

Unless of course, you like a President who rules with a pen and a phone.

You admit he can impose a tariff on goods coming into the US. You added the Punish part. I win.
