Trump won’t let the Supreme Court have the last word
President Donald Trump recently expressed frustration over two significant Supreme Court defeats concerning his executive powers. The court ruled against him on an order to end birthright citizenship and blocked his attempt to fire Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook. Following these rulings, Trump made further attempts to challenge the court's definitions of his authority.
President Donald Trump took aim this week at two high-profile defeats at the Supreme Court, treating the justices’ efforts to define his power as fresh hurdles rather than the final say.
The high court dealt Trump both of the losses during the term that ended in June, striking down his executive order to end birthright citizenship and blocking his attempt to fire Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook. This week Trump tried again on both fronts.
