    And big fat nothing will happen. He thinks he’s above the law and courts and law enforcement seems to do fuck all.

    It’s cute that we think courts are going to save us. The republicans on the SCOTUS includes sexual assaulters, a drunkard with no memory, a judge who will bend to a knee if you take him and his ugly-ass wife on trips, and a stack of federal judges hired and supported by maga.

    It’s done. The third term announcement will drop any day now.

      Also, the courts have no enforcement arm. They can issue injunctions all they want. It’s up to the executive branch to enforce the rulings. If the executive branch just says “nah” there’s not much the courts can do except issue another ruling. Even if the court imposed a fine, who’s going to collect it? If they issue a warrant, who’s going to execute it?

    Anyone acting surprised wasn’t paying attention when before the election Vance said if the courts try to stop them they’ll just ignore the courts. Here we are. Did the water in this pot just get a little warmer?
