President Trump sat for a lengthy interview with Time, one in which he made clear that he's not happy with his Supreme Court picks—or with his interviewers. "You haven't asked me one f---ing positive question," he complained to the editors after defending his moves in regard to the Iran war, White House renovations, and more. When the interviewers started asking about Mitch McConnell's health, he complained. "What about this? What about that? What about that? What about this? All negative." Earlier, Trump took his SCOTUS picks to task, as he has done previously, citing their rulings against him on topics such as birthright citizenship and tariffs.
"What can I do? I put them in," he said. "They voted against me too often. I was very—I gave them the position of a lifetime, and they vote against me often." He contrasted them with the court's three liberals, who "stick like glue—those three, they virtually never vary. You can come up with the worst thing in the world and they'll vote as a group. And while I don't like it, there's something I admire about it: there's loyalty." When the interviewers pressed Trump, twice, on whether he wanted loyalty from his own picks, the president didn't take the bait. "No, I don't want loyalty," he said. "I want good decisions. The tariff decision was disastrous for the country. I want good decisions for the country." Read an edited transcript here.
