Trump expects legal battle over potential tariff refunds
President exploring legislative paths through Congress to reinstate tariffs
📖 Full Retelling
President Donald Trump sharply criticized Supreme Court justices, including those he appointed during his previous term, on February 20, 2026, after the Court struck down most of his tariff policies, expressing his frustration with the ruling that limited his trade authority. The president was reportedly 'absolutely fuming' following the decision, going as far as saying the justices should be 'ashamed' of their ruling that undermined his tariff implementations. Trump maintained his position that he has 'the right to do tariffs' despite the judicial setback, signaling his determination to pursue alternative avenues for reinstating the trade measures. NBC News reporter Ryan Nobles detailed how the ruling could potentially influence Trump's upcoming State of the Union address, as the president seeks to frame the decision as an overreach of judicial power into executive authority on trade matters.
