Tennis legend Martina Navratilova reacted to US President Donald Trump's latest revelation about imposing tariffs on various countries during his controversial second term in the Oval Office.
With Trump's tariff decision hanging on a Supreme Court ruling, the president recently gave an interview to Fox News, where he revealed that if he hadn't considered making the move, the world would be facing significant economic challenges.
“If I didn't have tariffs, the whole world would be in a depression… I did this for the world,” he said.
Following those comments, The Atlantic writer James Surowiecki took to X and claimed that Trump was out of touch with reality.
“That aside, it's strange that the most powerful country in the world has a president completely out of touch with reality,” he wrote to X.
Martina Navratilova echoed these sentiments as she finds Trump deluded:
“Omg…I can't decide if it's so stupid or so delusional….”
The Trump administration cited the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) of 1977 to justify imposing tariffs and “reciprocal tariffs” on many trading partners. Lower federal courts have already ruled against Trump, and the case is now before the Supreme Court, which must decide whether IEEPA does, in fact, authorize the president to impose tariffs.
Martina Navratilova emerges as a vocal critic of Donald Trump
Since Donald Trump was re-elected to the Oval Office for a second term, Martina Navratilova has called out the US president for his controversial policies and executive orders, which have affected the lives of millions of people in the United States.
In June, during an interview with the BBC, Navratilova said that if she had a choice like in 1975 when she emigrated, she would not like to live in the United States today. It was an indirect hit on Trump, whom he had previously had claimed to be “against all things trans”.
Navratilova has also criticized Trump's decision to remove undocumented immigrants from the West Coast. she wrote:
“Exactly what Trump is doing, provoking, escalating, creating chaos … until he declares a national emergency, martial law and cancels the election.”
Navratilova has also alleged that Donald Trump was friends with Jeremey Epstein, a known child sex offender. Has repeatedly used social networks, urge the president to reveal what's inside the Epstein files.
