"If he defies the Supreme Court, then we are in uncharted territory ... our entire democracy is at risk. I believe that if Donald Trump should defy the courts, the public will rise up. Democrats will fight it in every single way ... autocrats only succeed if the public lets them."
It is clear this guy will forever just move the goalposts. Every interview he makes now is clearly just demotivating to the public. The role he is performing now - either through stupidity, or complicity - is demoralizing the public while the regime cements its position.
He seems to have decided that Article I - Congress where he sits - of the constitution doesn't exist. This is all just between us in the public, some Republican MAGA judges in SCOTUS, and the wannabe King in the White House.
Lower courts are already being defied. That should have him up in arms already! They have the same standing as SCOTUS you can't just defy them, you must appeal. He is apparently 100% okay with them being defied. And what if the 6-3 Republican majority SCOTUS sides with Trump? What if they say actually sending barbers to torture gulags in El Salvador is fine? I guess Chuck is okay with that.
What if we - the public - do stand up and police shoot at us, or Trump's new Gestapo aka ICE round up some protestors and send them to El Salvador. Will he be okay with that? Apparently he will be so long as SCOTUS hasn't yet decided against it.
This guy is in a coalition - witting or unwitting - with the regime now. He must be replaced. If you haven't already called your Senators (or even if you have, I'll be calling again), please call them and ask them to replace Chuck Schumer immediately.
