In a response to the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling on September 20, 2023, which invalidated the tariffs he imposed in April, President Donald Trump took to his social media platform, Truth Social, to announce a new global tariff of 10%. He criticized the Supreme Court for what he deemed a nonsensical decision, arguing that while the Court ruled he could not charge any fees under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), he retained the power to enact trade sanctions or embargoes. Trump expressed confusion over the Court’s logic, highlighting perceived inconsistencies in their ruling that allowed for trade restrictions while forbidding tariff charges.
