'I've been waiting forever': Trump just let loose on the Supreme Court
President Donald Trump expressed frustration with the U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday, telling steel workers that he has had to wait "many months" for a decision on the tariffs case, even though tariffs are still being collected.
The court hear oral arguments on November 5 — three and a half months ago — and a decision could come as soon as Friday. It is not unusual for the justices to take many months to decide a case.
The court, reports stated, appeared skeptical of Trump's authority to impose sweeping tariffs via executive orders without Congress.
"And to think I have to be, in the United States Supreme Court for many, many months, waiting for a decision on tariffs — without tariffs, this country would be in such trouble right now," Trump said at the Coosa Steel Corporation in Rome, Georgia, in a speech at a GOP-ticketed event.
"Without tariffs, this country would be like your company was two years ago," he told workers. "What a difference it made. And you know who brought the cases against us? People that are China-oriented, people that have business in China that want to rip us off and keep ripping us off."
Trump continued to display his ire.
"I'm waiting for a decision from the Supreme Court. Can you imagine? We have to wait."
"And I have to wait for this decision," he continued. "I've been waiting forever. Forever. And the language is clear that I have the right to do it as president. I have the right to put tariffs on for national security purposes, countries that have been ripping us off."
