President Donald Trump admonished justices who struck down sweeping tariffs on Friday, accusing the six members of the Supreme Court of being “afraid of doing the right thing.”
The president said at a press conference hours after the court’s ruling that he’s “ashamed” for the justices who voted against his tariffs, singling out the liberal justices who joined three conservatives in blocking the tariffs as a “disgrace to our nation.”
“The Supreme Court’s ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing, and I’m ashamed of certain members of the court, absolutely ashamed, for not having the courage to do what’s right for our country,” he said.
There’s already a lot of MAGA people convinced that “activist judges” are acting against Trump just to act against Trump… You know, as opposed to ruling against him because he’s breaking the law.
Nevermind all those other SCOTUS rulings handing the executive branch more power. Those don’t matter. Clearly now it’s stacked with activist judges.
I wonder if anyone from MAGA could actually define what “checks and balances” or “separation of powers” means.
I guarantee both would lack self-awareness and instead be defined with a generous sprinkling of “woke”, “antifa”, or “liberal” in the definition.
Maybe:
“Checks and balances make it so a woke liberal president can’t take away our freedom by himself.”
