President Donald Trump claimed he has "the absolute right" to impose new tariffs following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that declared many of his previously imposed import duties illegal.

The Supreme Court's decision struck down tariffs that Trump had implemented during the previous year as part of his trade agenda. The ruling represents a significant legal setback for the administration's trade policy efforts.

In response to the court's decision, Trump issued statements on Sunday night criticizing the Supreme Court's ruling. The president expressed strong disagreement with the court's action and questioned the institution's approach to his trade policies.

The Supreme Court ruling specifically addressed the legality of import duties that had been central to Trump's trade strategy. The decision calls into question the executive branch's authority to unilaterally impose certain types of trade restrictions without proper legal justification.

The conflict highlights ongoing tensions between the executive and judicial branches over trade policy implementation. The ruling may have broader implications for how future trade measures are structured and implemented by the administration.
