Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro accuses the U.S. Supreme Court of enabling President Donald Trump’s profits while in office, arguing that the court’s 2024 ruling on presidential immunity has allowed certain accountability to be blocked. Speaking in an interview with MeidasTouch on Friday, Shapiro called the Supreme Court decision “one of its worst decisions.”
Shapiro points to reporting and financial information he cites as showing Trump has generated significant earnings during his presidency. According to the accounts, Shapiro links the scale of Trump’s profits to the legal limits created by the immunity ruling, contending that “corruption has been enabled” as a result. The Hill and Mediaite both describe Shapiro’s comments as part of a broader critique of the Supreme Court and its impact on potential investigations or legal actions.
Both outlets frame Shapiro’s remarks around Trump’s financial disclosure materials released in 2025 and the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision in 2024, which Shapiro says constrains enforcement efforts during and after a presidency.
