## Resource

Supporters of the claim argue that Trump has often criticized or sought to bypass other institutions—including Congress, lower federal courts, independent agencies, the press, and state officials—while treating the Supreme Court of the United States as the ultimate authority when its rulings align with his objectives. They point to his legal strategy of appealing major disputes to the Supreme Court and to recent decisions that expanded presidential authority in some areas. At the same time, the record is more mixed. Trump has also publicly criticized the Supreme Court when it ruled against him. For example, the Court rejected his attempt to end birthright citizenship by executive order, and it ruled against his administration on significant tariff powers, prompting him to call for legislative action instead.
