President Donald Trump blasted the Supreme Court after a 6-3 ruling that struck down most of his tariffs, saying some justices should be "absolutely ashamed" and accusing them, without evidence, of being "swayed by foreign interests." He called the majority opinion "almost like not written by smart people," and added that some justices were "being politically correct" and acting as "lapdogs for the RINOS and radical left Democrats." Trump questioned the loyalty of "our people," a likely reference to his appointees Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Neil Gorsuch, who sided against the administration.

He called the decision "deeply disappointing" and said the administration would pursue "alternatives" to preserve his trade agenda. He said he would use a separate authority to impose a 10% global tariff on top of any existing tariffs.
