Awarenessinfomedia has gathered that the US President Donald Trump has expressed his disappointment and shame over the Supreme Court's ruling on his global tariff policy, describing it as "deeply disappointing".
Speaking at the White House on Friday, Trump said he was "absolutely ashamed" of some of the justices for not having the courage to do what's right for the country.
The Supreme Court ruled that the US president does not have the constitutional authority to impose sweeping global tariffs on any country for any reason, noting that such powers reside with Congress.
However, the decision allowed some tariffs on specific goods from certain countries to remain in place, potentially giving the administration a path to restructure parts of its trade policy.
Uncertainty remains over whether US importers will receive refunds for tariffs already paid. If refunds are approved, the financial implications for the government could be significant, with US customs having collected over $130 billion in import duties under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).
Trump has aggressively pursued tariff measures since returning to office in January 2025, including:
The World Trade Organisation's (WTO) director-general, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, had warned that the Trump administration's tariffs represent "the greatest disruption in trade in 80 years". Trump has defended the measures, arguing they are necessary because "our country and its taxpayers have been ripped off for more than 50 years."
Trump said he will use "other alternatives" to reinstate his tariffs and hinted at potentially implementing trade embargoes on other nations.
