Brief

A tweet by @HighImpactInfo highlights that Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Neil Gorsuch, appointed by Donald Trump, were criticized by Trump after the Supreme Court’s 6–3 March 26, 2026 decision finding he lacked IEEPA authority to impose tariffs. The author argues those attacks contradict the President’s constitutional oath.

Why it matters

Author notes Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Neil Gorsuch — both appointed by Donald Trump — were singled out after the Supreme Court’s 6–3 March 26, 2026 ruling that Trump lacked authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose tariffs.

Key details

  • Author highlights Trump’s comment that Barrett and Gorsuch ‘sicken me’ and argues such public outbursts conflict with the President’s oath “to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.”
Source evidence

Keep in mind these are justices appointed by Trump, and because they rules against him in the tariff case he says they are bad for the country. The President swears an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution, hard to see how Trump is living up to his duty as President with these kinds of outbursts.
