On One hand, that’s pretty unconstitutional

On the other hand, the constitution has already been shredded at this point, so who care

The trump administration ignores court orders they feel are unconstitutional. California might as well ignore tariffs she feels is unconstitutional. Congress passes tariffs, not the president.

Make the Trump administration sue them if they think it's unconstitutional. Then drag the court proceedings out as long as possible.
