Former President Donald Trump's delayed reaction to the temporary invalidation of his "Liberation Day" tariff program by the U.S. Court of International Trade resulted in a significant outburst on Truth Social. He harshly criticized Leonard Leo, a key architect of the contemporary U.S. Supreme Court, feeling betrayed after the justices he appointed failed to overturn the 2020 election results. Trump's fury also extends to Timothy Reif, who challenged his tariff program. This conflict signals a potential fracture within the conservative legal establishment, point to Trump's disillusionment with his judicial appointees and their advisers.
Trump's eruption on Truth Social not only reflects his frustration with Leonard Leo but also highlights internal rifts within the conservative legal movement.
The fallout from Trump's criticism of Leo and the judges could create lasting ramifications for the relationship between the former president and conservative legal giants.
