Donald Trump criticized the performance of two Supreme Court justices he appointed, Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett. He noted that Democrats typically oppose Republican nominees but not their own. Trump also mentioned that at least he did not appoint John Roberts, who, according to Trump, led certain actions that allowed other countries to continue taking advantage of the United States. Additionally, Trump emphasized that new tariff measures are being implemented, which have been tested and deemed legal.
