The United States Supreme Court recently delivered a significant blow to President Donald Trump, ruling that his imposition of wide-ranging tariffs on several countries, including Brazil, was illegal. This ruling represented a major institutional defeat for Trump during his second term, as the court found that he lacked the authority to enact such tariffs without explicit Congressional approval. The decision, which passed with a vote of six to three, highlighted a shift even among judges appointed by Trump himself, with two voting against him.
