46. The courts have been consistently finding for us

Mon Jun 9, 2025, 04:15 PM

Yesterday

Obviously SCOTUS is a wild card. But if 95% of the courts in the country rule against Trump and are overturned by 6 people, at least it will be on the record that SCOTUS is installing a dictatorship.

Roberts and Barrett might have a problem with that. That is our hope.
We have to establish the illegality of what he is doing. We won't win in a gunfight.

If Trump ignores the courts and uses the military, it will at least be understood by all that it is a coup.
Which will be important when the country falls apart and the sycophants and military won't prop him up anymore.
