Unanimous decision. The judges are Gary Katzmann (Obama appointee), Jane Restani (Reagan appointee), and Timothy Reif (Trump appointee). So the whole "liberal activist judges" line ain't gonna work for MAGA.
Trump would just claim, that anyone votes against him , tells the truth about how bad Trump is. Trump just claims the person is bad or against him/ the country . Then he gets his supporters against the person.

Don't forget "nasty." After that, I think we're exhausting his vocabulary range.

Trump asks, "Where do these initial three Judges come from?"

Trump appointed Timothy Reif in 2019.

It's time to seriously start considering that Trump's mind is cooked.
start?

Exactly right. Trump keeps rambling on about bringing manufacturing back to the US. It's something of a pipe dream in any case, but what manufacturer is going to build a factory to build Widgets if they don't know how much they'll have to a pay on the tariffs on the imported materials and parts and don't know if their export market is going to be hit with reciprocal tariffs?

Anyone who had an agenda to hit US manufacturing hard would be doing exactly what Trump is doing now.
Yes, not just America either. These system changes are affecting economies negatively worldwide. Too much and too far in tariffs and negative talk, except in the cases of those clearly aligned against USA interests.

The part that gets to me about Trump's "Truth" (Truth Social Post) is how he claims, "Under this decision, Trillions of Dollars would be lost by our Country," I'm sorry, what trillions of dollars -- the ones paid by American taxpayers and businesses in the form of Trump making the largest tax increase in US history in the form of tariffs? Besides, isn't Trump's alleged opinion (at least when he talks about lowering taxes on businesses and the wealthy) is that Americans keeping their money is better than the government get it -- so why is trillions from US citizens "lost" if they get to keep it?

Trump needs to realize that you can't always use "emergency" powers just because you try to create some idea of an emergency. Creating tariffs belongs to Congress and it is not wrong of the courts to point that out.

It also appears that the only reason the "stay" was issued was because Trump promised that any tariffs collected will be returned, if the court rules against him. Of course, that doesn't help with any trade lost because Trump keeps playing around with tariffs, or do anything to help the US businesses that lose money because of the tariff policy until this case is ultimately decided.

so apparently trump has angered india by lying and claiming that the tariffs stopped the fight between them and pakistan and to end them would make them come back. The guy can't help but lie through his teeth.

That or he has dementia,

Why can't it be both?

From here: https://indianexpress.com/article/i...-india-no-talks-us-trade-op-sindoor-10037029/

'India has once again denied any link between US tariffs and the May 10 ceasefire with Pakistan following nearly 100 hours of military conflict that included missile and drone attacks from Pakistan and air strikes by India.'

And from here: ‘Issue of trade or tariff did not come up’: India once again dismisses Trump administration's claim on India-Pakistan ceasefire | India News - Times of India

Speaking in response to a recent filing by the Trump administration in a US court, ministry of external affairs spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said, “Regarding the court filing in the United States, I hope you have seen the court order as well. Our position on this particular issue that you mentioned has been well articulated. I would refer you to our position that was made clear on 13th of May.”

He clarified that the military situation was discussed between Indian and US leaders from the launch of Operation Sindoor on May 7 until the ceasefire on May 10, but “the issue of trade or tariff did not come up in any of those discussions.”

He lied. Plain and simple.
