Trump Warns of 'National Security Disaster' If Supreme Court Shoots Down His Tariffs
"By the time my first year ends, we're going to have over $20 trillion of investment coming into the United States. It's unheard of, Trump said. We have AI factories we're leading China by a lot we have cars and car plants coming in by more than we've ever had built before. All of that would go away if we lose the tariff case."
"Other countries use tariffs against us, and we weren't able to openly and freely use tariffs against them, Trump told reporters earlier this month. I'll give you an example China. That was going to be a disaster for the world, and I was able to settle it very quickly, very easily, because I was able to use tariffs. It's total national security, and economic health is also a part of national security, by the way."
President Donald Trump warned that a Supreme Court ruling against his tariff program would be both an economic and national security disaster. He asserted tariffs are boosting the economy, attracting more than $20 trillion in investment within his first year, and spurring AI factories and new car plants. He said those gains would vanish if the tariff case is lost. The court case centers on a 1977 statute that the president cites to regulate imports. He argued tariffs are legal and necessary to prevent exploitation by other countries and to protect national security. News outlets reported a rocky start for his legal arguments.
