President Donald Trump attacks the U.S. Supreme Court after it blocks his efforts to restrict mail-in voting ahead of the midterm elections. Multiple outlets report the court rejects a push to lift an existing order that halts changes to mail-in voting rules, leaving Trump’s plans stalled.
Trump condemns the justices in statements on social media, saying they are “not the people I interviewed” for the Supreme Court. Several sources note he frames the decision as disloyalty or betrayal by the conservative justices he appointed or influenced, and he describes the outcome as a “bad decision.” Outlets differ mainly in wording and emphasis—some focus on the personal nature of the attack, while others foreground the specific procedural setback the ruling creates for Trump’s election-related agenda—but they align on the core facts: the Supreme Court decision, Trump’s reaction, and his attribution of responsibility to his own picks.
