Trump calls Supreme Court justices a 'disgrace' after tariff rejection

President Donald Trump said Friday he's "absolutely ashamed" of the Supreme Court justices who voted to strike down his tariffs, calling them a "disgrace to our nation." In a 6-3 decision released Friday, the court ruled that the President acted illegally in using one of his emergency economic powers to impose sweeping tariffs on trade partners last year. However, it’s only a partial – and likely temporary – setback for the administration. Several hours after the decision, Mr. Trump said he would impose a new 10-per-cent global tariff, using a different piece of legislation. The sectoral tariffs on steel, aluminum, automobiles and lumber, which are hitting Canadian trade the hardest, aren’t affected by the decision and will remain in place. #uspolitics #tariffs #trump
