"We have the best economy. We have a very, very important decision being made by the Supreme Court because our country is the richest, the strongest, the most powerful.

But the tariff question, because without the tariffs, this country is in serious, serious trouble, Trump continued, repeating claims he made over the weekend when an appeals court shot down his sweeping global tariffs."
