Okay but then what’s the point of nitpicking the concept given that it’s clear there is no intention of following court orders nor is there any hope for the fully captured judicial branch
Justice Roberts from the Supreme Court has publicly scolded Trump over the deportation of Venezuelans and Trump’s nitpicking over the legality.
Paradoxically…
On July 1, 2024, Roberts wrote the majority opinion in Trump v. United States, writing that a president has absolute immunity for acts committed as president within their constitutional purview, presumptive immunity for official acts, and no immunity for unofficial acts.
Not in a clear-cut way. It really isn’t that simple. In fact I am listening to this podcast right now.

But eventually Trump is bound to push the envelope and disobey the courts in a clear-cut way. It is not looking hopeful for Democracy in USA.

I don’t understand the meaning of “within their constitutional purview” though.
He is also the same guy picked up on hot mic a few weeks ago when Trump thanked him for the above. Roberts responded “that’s OK”.
That he is pushing back is significant. Roberts and his SCOTUS buddies will become irrelevant if Trump ignores them.
It is really precarious and scary but it has not happened yet.
