US President Donald Trump on Thursday said he will consider alternatives if the Supreme Court rules against his administration over the legality of sweeping tariffs.
"I think it'd be devastating for our country, but I also think that we'll have to develop a 'game two' plan. We'll see what happens," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office, Reuters reported.
He said he could try other things, but they would be slow by comparison.
The US Supreme Court justices raised doubts on Wednesday over the legality of Trump's sweeping tariffs in a case with implications for the global economy that marks a major test of Trump's powers.
Conservative and liberal justices alike sharply questioned the lawyer representing Trump's administration about whether a 1977 law meant for use during national emergencies gave Trump the power he claimed to impose tariffs or whether the Republican president had intruded on the powers of Congress.
