Tonight, as you know, the Supreme Court reminded the country that even the most powerful president

in the world does not get to rewrite the Constitution to win an argument about economics.

Tonight, Donald Trump lost, and he lost decisively on one of the defining policies of his political

identity, tariffs. For years, Trump has described tariffs as economic magic,

a way to punish foreign countries and rich Americans and fund the U.S. government all at once.

He has insisted that other nations were paying us billions, actually said billions and billions,

in his word, holding tariffs up as proof not just of policy

success, but of personal strength. Today, the Supreme Court rejected the legal foundation

behind key parts of that strategy. In plain English, a president cannot simply declare an economic

emergency and impose sweeping tariffs on imports whenever he chooses.

The court said there are constitutional limits, even for a president who's long argued that there

should be none.

Trump's response was immediate and swift, and as expected, defiant.

Here's a portion of what he said today in the White House briefing

room. The Supreme Court's ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing, and I'm ashamed of

certain members of the court. The Democrats on the court are thrilled, but they will automatically vote no. They also

are a, frankly, disgrace to our nation, those justices. They're just being fools and lap dogs for

the rhinos and the radical left Democrats. They're very unpatriotic and disloyal to our Constitution.

It's my opinion that the court has been swayed by foreign interests and a political movement

that is far smaller than people would ever think.

Unpatriotic. Trump said he's got a backup plan, by the way. He claimed this ruling doesn't affect

his tariffs, and he can make even bigger tariffs, something we'll discuss over the course of the next
