CNN’s Kristen Holmes is reporting that Trump’s breakfast with most of America’s governors went completely off the rails when the news that the Supreme Court had struck down Trump’s tariffs hit, leading to a furious tantrum from the President.
“We still have no official reaction from the White House or President Trump. We are waiting. I am told that they are meeting and discussing how they are going to respond,” said Holmes.
“But we have learned more about what happened in the room when President Trump was with those governors and he learned of the Supreme Court decision. Apparently, breakfast had been going well. They were working together. And then President Trump became enraged. He started ranting about the decision, not only calling it a disgrace, but started attacking the courts, at one point saying, ‘these effing courts.’”
Holmes then twisted the knife just a little more: “This could not be a bigger loss for President Trump. Not only is so much of his economic agenda based on these tariffs, so much of his foreign policy is based on these tariffs. He has touted them as the most important part of the economic agenda. So clearly a huge loss and he recognizes that today.”
Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving would-be dictator! It is so fitting that the central pillar of Trump’s entire agenda was knocked down by some of the extremist judges that he himself nominated to the Supreme Court…and deeply disturbing that three of them them were willing to throw the Constitution in the trash to enable Trump’s tyranny.
But make no mistake: Trump’s growing authoritarianism will bring him in direct conflict with the courts one way or another, and that will put our entire democracy as we know it at risk.
We must be ready to take to the streets, shut the country down, and take a stand against dictatorship or lose our freedoms forever.
