Trump rips SCOTUS tariff ruling at State of the Union
LiveNOW’s Austin Westfall is speaking with Jeffery Degner from the American Institute for Economic Research (AIER) after President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address. Some of the most notable moments from Trump's speech surrounded his response to the Supreme Court’s recent 6–3 ruling on tariffs. This decision invalidated Trump’s use of a 1977 emergency law to impose tariffs on most U.S. trading partners. "Countries that were ripping us off for decades are now paying us hundreds of billions of dollars," Trump said of the tariffs, which he previously described as "life or death" for the economy in the United States.
