Trump Calls Supreme Court Tariff Case a ‘Historic Threat’ to U.S. Security

Former President Donald Trump has warned that a Supreme Court ruling against his tariff powers could pose a major threat to U.S. national security. Trump described the potential decision as the “biggest threat in history” to the country’s financial and strategic strength.

The legal battle centers on whether Congress or the president holds the authority to impose tariffs. The Supreme Court began reviewing the case on November 5, with no ruling date announced. Several businesses and Democratic-led states, including retail giant Costco, have challenged the constitutionality of the tariffs.

Trump maintains that tariffs bolstered U.S. economic and national security. Critics, however, argue that the trade measures have contributed to higher living costs and growing political tensions.
