The Donald Trump administration said it could ask the US Supreme Court to halt a ruling blocking his sweeping tariff agenda as soon as Friday.
The administration on Thursday filed an appeal against the ruling by a federal trade court that said Trump did not have “unlimited tariff power” and that his “Liberation Day” levies are the kind that should be approved by Congress.
Trump’s aides lashed out at the judges, with some branding their decision a “judicial coup.”
The trade court’s decision upends ongoing trade negotiations with dozens of countries, as well as interim deals with Britain and China, but experts noted Trump has plenty of other ways in which he can impose duties.
