Trump Is Headed for a Showdown with the Courts

Lately, the headlines have been clear: President Donald Trump is headed for a showdown with the courts. If he ignores their rulings, the courts have few tools and limited power to make him comply.

What the United States is witnessing in 2025 is not just a president testing the system. It is a transformation of the presidency into a fully political institution. The president acts until political resistance becomes strong enough to stop him.

trump knows enforcement of court orders against his draconian moves are dependent on the political environment. To a tyrant like trump, that is no obstacle at all. He will run over laws and the Cinstitution until the political damage convinces repubs to say, "Enough is Enough."

The US is in trouble. Our president is a power hungry tyrant who will not let laws or courts stop him. The Dems are weak and don't seem to have an answer.

We don't elect Federal Judges. They are really the power you speak of. But let them enforce laws. Trump is doing a damn good job enforcing laws.

This is crap
15 different ways and I'll show you how.
Do you know the difference between a monarchy and a democracy
do you think that presidents can just appoint a judge without advise consent..

Is Congress Parliament ?
If they are
there's
Does the
supreme court know about it ?

Do you think that a dictatorship is bigger than the American Constitution ?

You know Hillsborough college
has a wonderful get to know
your government class
U
might even get a scholarship.

You guys need to learn how to argue with substance.

It's no skin off my ass whether you do or don't
I'm still running for congress
To save people like you
from people like you.

You're a poopy head
is not the same as intellectual debate.

Did you call me a "poopy head?' Are you 12 years old? You do some research. You want to know where trump is taking the country. Google Hungary or Orban. There was a reason Orban was a star at CPAC. The courts and free press are the only thing standing between the US becoming Hungary. GROW A BRAIN AND GROW UP.

I was speaking generally and euphemistically you're not a poopy head.
But I like that you present some
Substance
That was the whole point of my thread.
Are you from Eastern Europe ?

He will run over laws and the Cinstitution until the political damage convinces repubs to say, "Enough is Enough."

But will they? I'm seeing no indication that they're willing to draw such lines. As long as they see themselves as victims, people will be susceptible to populist fascists who promise to save them.

Democrat is high drama all the time.
That is the essence of the platform.
They actually think Trump is Hitler.

That is their platform.

The Democrats are plying the waters of fascism as well.

Fascism is a symptom of a society that has embraced victimhood.

There's an incredible disconnect.

Impeachments and & a bastardized Congress.

How much is enough ?

 

[dblack]

There's an incredible disconnect.

How so?

 

[Etymology gaslight]

How so?

It's a great question
The media
The world's desperate quest for something other than a white American president.
I get that
I hate white people too
but I'm white
Where do I go from here ?
I was born in the Land of Lincoln
& people are trying to take my paychecks for reparations.

Not sure you're going on about. You said my comment about fascism was an "incredible disconnect". What did you mean?

Don't worry the courts are just as corrupt as Trump is.

9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously concluded it was likely Trump lawfully exercised his authority in federalizing control of the guard.

It said that while presidents don’t have unfettered power to seize control of a state’s guard, the Trump administration had presented enough evidence to show it had a defensible rationale for doing so, citing violent acts by protesters.

“The undisputed facts demonstrate that before the deployment of the National Guard, protesters ‘pinned down’ several federal officers and threw ‘concrete chunks, bottles of liquid, and other objects’ at the officers. Protesters also damaged federal buildings and caused the closure of at least one federal building. And a federal van was attacked by protesters who smashed in the van’s windows,” the court wrote. “The federal government’s interest in preventing incidents like these is significant.”

“The court rightly rejected Trump’s claim that he can do whatever he wants with the National Guard and not have to explain himself to a court,” Newsom said. “The President is not a king and is not above the law. We will press forward with our challenge to President Trump’s authoritarian use of U.S. military soldiers against citizens.”

Two judges on the appeals panel were appointed by Trump during his first term. During oral arguments Tuesday, all three judges suggested that presidents have wide latitude under the federal law at issue and that courts should be reluctant to step in.
