It should never be unconstitutional to invoke p!

No, I meant the Defense Production Act itself. Under what constitutional provision is the President allowed to commandeer private businesses? Commerce Clause seems wrong because there's no commerce being regulated. If the President can order commerce created and use that as grounds to get within the CC, it seems like a completely meaningless limitation. Germany commandeered private businesses for its war effort and we called it fascism.
