President Donald Trump said he would skip attending the Supreme Court hearing this week over the legality of his worldwide tariffs regime.

“I don’t want to call a lot of attention to me,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One as he returned to Washington from his Mar-a-Lago estate on Sunday. “It’s not about me, it’s about our country.”
