President Donald Trump was reportedly infuriated Friday after the Supreme Court ruled that his tariffs were illegal.
Trump was hosting the National Governor’s Association breakfast with a room full of the nation’s governors at the White House when he found out about the high court’s decision to strike down Trump’s tariffs in a 6-3 vote.
“Apparently the gov breakfast had been going well, they were working together, and then President Trump became enraged. He started ranting about the decision, not only calling it a disgrace, but started attacking the courts at one point saying, these ‘f—— courts,’” said CNN senior White House correspondent Kristen Holmes.
“This tariff policy — this could not be a bigger decision for President Trump — this could not be a bigger loss for President Trump,” Holmes added. “Not only is so much of his economic agenda based on these tariffs, so much of his foreign policy is based on these tariffs. He has used these tariffs as leverage in almost every meeting that he has had around the world. He has touted them as the most important part of the economic agenda. So clearly, a huge loss, and he recognizes that today.”
Trump and his administration have not yet made an official announcement in response. His team was reportedly meeting to determine next moves, Holmes said.
