"That post came after a Friday evening spent posting angry messages about the decision and disloyal Republicans. At 7:04 PM, Trump wrote: Those members of the Supreme Court who voted against our very acceptable and proper method of TARIFFS should be ashamed of themselves. Their decision was ridiculous but, now the adjustment process begins, and we will do everything possible to take in even more money than we were taking in before!"
"Later that same hour, Trump added a message singling out his appointees: What happened today with the two United States Supreme Court Justices that I appointed against great opposition, Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, whether people like it or not, never seems to happen with Democrats. They vote against the Republicans, and never against themselves, almost every single time, no matter how good a case we have."
The Supreme Court issued a 6-3 decision invalidating the emergency tariff authority that had been claimed under an emergency powers law. The majority included Chief Justice John Roberts and Trump-appointees Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett. Trump held a briefing condemning the ruling and later posted on social media, sharply criticizing the justices who voted against the tariffs and praising dissenting Justices Brett Kavanaugh, Clarence Thomas, and Samuel Alito. He accused some appointed justices of disloyalty, vowed to adjust trade measures, and pledged to pursue alternative ways to increase tariff revenue.
