President Donald Trump escalated his push to raise tariffs without the Supreme Court's backing on Feb. 21, announcing he would up the 10% worldwide tariff he announced after the nation's highest court ruled against him to 15%.
"Based on a thorough, detailed, and complete review of the ridiculous, poorly written, and extraordinarily anti-American decision on Tariffs issued yesterday, after MANY months of contemplation, by the United States Supreme Court," Trump wrote in a Truth Social post, the worldwide tariff would be raised to 15%, "effective immediately."
It came after Trump lashed out at the Supreme Court on Feb. 20 over what he called its "deeply disappointing" decision to overturn the emergency tariffs that he imposed on countries around the world.
At a press conference after the ruling, Trump said he was "ashamed" of some Supreme Court justices "for not having the courage to do what’s right for our country.”
