President Donald Trump blasted the Supreme Court's conservative wing on Wednesday, accusing the justices of failing to stand firm and handing repeated victories to the left in major rulings.
In a lengthy Truth Social post, Trump sharply criticized what he described as a lack of unity among Republican-appointed justices compared with their Democrat counterparts.
"How can the Democrats not like how the U.S. Supreme Court votes," Trump wrote. "The Democrat Justices stick together like glue, NEVER failing to wander from the warped and perverse policies, ideas, and cases put before them. They ALWAYS vote as a group, or BLOCK, even that new, Low IQ person, that somehow found her way to the bench (Sleepy Joe!).
"The Republican Justices don't stick together, they give the Democrats win after win, like a 159 Billion Dollar pile of cash on a completely ridiculous Tariff decision, and nasty, one sided questions on the country destroying subject of Birthright Citizenship, something which virtually NO OTHER COUNTRY IN THE WORLD IS STUPID ENOUGH TO ALLOW," he continued.
The president added: "No, certain 'Republican' Justices have just gone weak, stupid, and bad, completely violating what they 'supposedly' stood for."
Trump argued that while liberal justices reliably vote as a bloc, conservatives have fractured in key cases involving economic policy and constitutional interpretation.
He pointed to a tariff-related decision that he said could cost the United States billions, framing it as an example of judicial overreach and poor reasoning.
Trump also raised concerns about the ongoing legal debate over birthright citizenship, warning that a ruling against his position could have far-reaching economic and national implications.
The criticism is noteworthy, given that Trump appointed three justices during his first term — Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett — helping establish the court's current conservative majority.
Even so, Trump suggested some of those justices, along with other Republican appointees, have strayed from their stated principles and enabled outcomes favorable to Democrats.
He also described the tariff ruling as "an unnecessary and expensive slap in the face to the U.S.A." and a major victory for foreign interests.
Looking ahead, Trump cautioned that an unfavorable decision on birthright citizenship would be even more damaging, both financially and in terms of national identity.
"No, the Radical Left Democrats don't need to 'Pack the Court,' it's already Packed!" the president wrote.
