On the Wednesday, May 28, episode of The Last Word With Lawrence O'Donnell, host Lawrence O'Donnell ripped into Donald Trump after the president's tariffs were blocked by the United States Court of International Trade.

"Futures trading is now soaring tonight in the expectation of an explosively positive reaction by the stock market tomorrow when the world will reset itself around the restoration around law and order in international trade and the crushing of the Trump tariffs, and the resultant personal worldwide humiliation of Donald Trump," O'Donnell began. "The Trump tariffs were always illegal and unconstitutional, and you heard that on this program every time we covered Donald Trump's comments about tariffs."
