Donald Trump continued his war on the Supreme Court early Monday, apparently still smarting from the bruising landmark 6-3 decision limiting his ability to levy tariffs that was handed down on Friday.

After lashing out at the six justices who did not bend to his will at an impromptu White House press conference, calling the ruling a “disgrace to our nation,” he opened up a new front and insisted the nation’s highest court had already given him free rein to do as he pleases.

On Truth Social, he wrote Monday, “The supreme court (will be using lower case letters for a while based on a complete lack of respect!) of the United States accidentally and unwittingly gave me, as President of the United States, far more powers and strength than I had prior to their ridiculous, dumb, and very internationally divisive ruling.”

He added, “For one thing, I can use Licenses to do absolutely 'terrible' things to foreign countries, especially those countries that have been RIPPING US OFF for many decades, but incomprehensibly, according to the ruling, can’t charge them a License fee - BUT ALL LICENSES CHARGE FEES, why can’t the United States do so? You do a license to get a fee! The opinion doesn’t explain that, but I know the answer! The court has also approved all other Tariffs, of which their [sic] are many, and they can all be used in a much more powerful and obnoxious way, with legal certainty, than the Tariffs as initially used.”

He then fired off another smear, writing, “Our incompetent supreme court did a great job for the wrong people, and for that they should be ashamed of themselves (but not the Great Three!). The next thing you know they will rule in favor of China and others, who are making an absolute fortune on Birthright Citizenship, by saying the 14th Amendment was NOT written to take care of the ‘babies of slaves,’ which it was as proven by the EXACT TIMING of its construction, filing, and ratification, which perfectly coincided with the END OF THE CIVIL WAR. How much better can you do than that?”

“But this supreme court will find a way to come to the wrong conclusion, one that again will make China, and various other Nations, happy and rich. Let our supreme court keep making decisions that are so bad and deleterious to the future of our Nation - I have a job to do. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP,” he concluded.

President Donald Trump is expected to boast about his accomplishments Tuesday during his State of the Union address Tuesday, but according to one political analyst the event may turn into an “awkward” affair due to the president’s fury over the Supreme Court’s recent ruling on tariffs.

“It's gonna be a little awkward,” said White House Politico reporter Daniel Lippman during an appearance on Newsmax Monday.

“The Supreme Court justices, most of them will be there, and I remember when President [Barack] Obama was shaming the justices for various rulings and [Justice] John Roberts was not looking very happy. And so I think there's going to be a lot of cameras trained on the justices to see how they react when Trump scolds them.”

On Friday, the Supreme Court ruled in a 6-3 decision that Trump had acted outside his authority in imposing tariffs, a decision that sent Trump into rage. He went on to attack the justices that ruled against his tariffs – including two of his own appointees – calling them “unpatriotic” and “disloyal” to the Constitution.

Lippman also predicted another potentially “awkward” dynamic that may play out during Trump’s address.

“And also, how many Republicans applaud when Trump talks about tariffs?” Lippman said. “Do they mostly stay silent on that specific part of the speech?”

While Trump has repeatedly championed his tariff policy, Americans have largely soured on them, with 64% disapproving according to a new Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos poll. According to a recent study, 96% of all tariff-induced cost increases were paid directly by American consumers.

A stunning accusation Donald Trump aimed at the six Supreme Court justices who ruled against his tariff policies caused “Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough to have his producers cut off the clip of the Friday White House rant on Monday morning.

The MS NOW host then suggested the president was telling on himself with one particular “smear.”

During his impromptu Friday press conference, the president sneered, “The Supreme Court’s ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing, and I’m ashamed of certain members of the court, absolutely ashamed for not having the courage to do what’s right for our country.”

It was not long after Trump accused the justices of being under the influence of foreign interests that Scarborough had enough and ordered the clip ended.

“I mean, literally, it's the most Orwellian thing. — I can't say it's the most Orwellian thing — It's kind of like the Wall Street Journal saying that was the low point of his second term,” the MS NOW host exclaimed.

“That said, foreign influences, please!” he added. “Is this projection? Is this a confession coming from the president? Foreign? I mean, President Trump owes the Supreme Court an apology, says The Wall Street Journal. The individual justices he smeared on Friday, the institution itself; Mr. Trump doubtless won't offer one, but his rant in response to the tariff defeat of the court was arguably the worst moment of his presidency. Again, come on.”
