What does he think "illegal" means? Is he getting rid of the first amendment?

That word doesn't mean anything to him, except as a tool to prosecute people he doesn't like. Obviously laws and illegality don't mean shit when it's him breaking the law.

Pretty sure there is enough evidence for treason at this point, but Congress won't act on it.

"Illegal" as in "illegal immigrants". It's a connotation word, it doesn't mean anything on its own obviously.

He also thinks he can order a private school to expell students.. he's just not smart.

But also that it's DEI DEMOCRAT OVERREACH to have a black woman in an administrative role.

Even if it works.. it would not label him as smart, just unreasonably powerful (money full)

I think illigal means dissenting (or brown)..

In his mind (to clarify)

That's the weasel word that lets the right know exactly what he means but still able to pretend like it isn't what he means.

Well he also did an executive order, that only he is allowed to interpret the law, so... Whatever he feels like is illegal is illegal.
