"Tomorrow's United States Supreme Court case is, literally, LIFE OR DEATH for our Country. The good news is that almost all countries and corporations want to keep the deal that they already made—knowing that the legal power that I, as president, have to make a new deal could be far worse for them, and therefore they will continue to work along the same successful path that we had negotiated before the Supreme Court's unfortunate involvement."

President Trump repeatedly warned before the Supreme Court's February 20 ruling on tariffs that striking them down would be catastrophic and life-or-death for the country. However, after the Court ruled against him in Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump, finding the tariffs violated federal law, Trump completely changed his messaging. He claimed the ruling was disappointing but that tariffs would remain through alternative legal statutes that were actually better and more complex. This dramatic pivot demonstrated Trump's pattern of using extreme rhetoric to influence outcomes while simultaneously avoiding appearing as a loser, regardless of actual results.
