If you dont understand the concept of 3 co-equal branches of Government under the Constitution- you may need to repeat 9th grade civics class.

HERE is what the Constitution says about who has the power over tariffs, foreign affairs, etc…

“ Article 1, Section 8

The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
To borrow Money on the credit of the United States;
To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;”



And…..HERE is what the Constitution says about the power of Courts;

“ Article 3, Section 1

The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services, a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office.

Article 3, Section 2

The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority;—to all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls;—to all Cases of admiralty and maritime Jurisdiction;—to Controversies to which the United States shall be a Party;—to Controversies between two or more States;—between a State and Citizens of another State; —between Citizens of different States, —between Citizens of the same State claiming Lands under Grants of different States, and between a State, or the Citizens thereof, and foreign States, Citizens or Subjects.”

Co equal branches. Judicial is set up to interpret the laws that Congress passes and the Executive signs.
Trump's premise that he based his emergency powers on did not cover his actions. Read the opinion, it lays it all out.

Without allowing for the judicial branch's Constitutional authority we will be well on our way to a Constitutional crisis. Trump is not king.
