US President Donald Trump has once again vented out his anger on the Supreme Court of his country regarding the decision given on tariffs. He termed the court’s decision as an insult and said that this will further increase his strength. In a post on Social Truth, Trump promised to implement the tariffs legally, although he did not provide details.
Donald Trump lashed out at American courts
Trump said, ‘The US Supreme Court has increased my powers as President more than ever before by making ridiculous, stupid and internationally extremely divisive decisions. For one thing, I can use the license to take very terrible measures against other countries, especially those countries which have exploited us for many decades.
The US President said, ‘The surprising thing is that according to the decision, I cannot charge license fees from other countries, when there is a fee associated with every license, then why can’t America do the same? The court has also approved all other tariffs, which are numerous. “All of these can be used legally in a more powerful way than tariffs that have been used before.”
Court can give verdict in favor of China: Trump
Trump expressed apprehension that the court may go beyond the issue of tariffs and also rule on the issue of birthright citizenship in favor of China and other countries. He said, ‘The next thing will be that they (Supreme Court) will give the verdict in favor of China and other countries. They will also say that the 14th Amendment was not written to take care of the children of slaves, although that was its purpose. One way or the other the Supreme Court will reach a wrong conclusion.
US President Donald Trump immediately announced the imposition of a 10 percent global tariff after the Supreme Court’s decision. After this, on Saturday (21 February 2026), Trump increased the global tariff to 15 percent.
