President Donald Trump leveled unusually pointed criticism of a prominent conservative legal activist and organization Thursday as he railed against a ruling that struck down his sweeping tariffs.
The president, in a post on his social media platform, slammed Leonard Leo, the former chair of the Federalist Society, calling him a sleazebag who probably hates America.
It was a striking characterization of Leo, who played a key role in working with Trump to shape the conservative Supreme Court.
