US President Donald Trump on Monday defended his tariff policies, saying they have been vital for the country’s economy and military strength.
He also took aim at a recent court ruling that went against him, decided in a 7–4 opinion, which he described as being led by “a Radical Left group of judges."
“Without Tariffs, and all of the TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS we have already taken in, our Country would be completely destroyed, and our military power would be instantly obliterated," Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.
Trump noted, however, that one judge broke ranks.
“In a 7 to 4 Opinion, a Radical Left group of judges didn’t care."
“But one Democrat, Obama appointed, actually voted to save our Country. I would like to thank him for his Courage! He loves and respects the U.S.A.," Trump added.
