    While ignoring court orders that block his agenda.

    Funny how that works.

    This is a sign that Trump to some degree fears blowback. He wouldn’t make statements like this if he thought there was no threats to his power. He wants you to think he’s already obtained 100% power so you don’t fight fight back

      Yes, absolutely. The more cynical replies of disbelief are missing why Trump would say anything at all.

      Push harder.

        Agreed. It might feel futile, but lawsuits and public outcry do matter.

      I think this is accurate. If he had no fear, he wouldn’t say anything at all.

    This is just CYA for Trump. Faux News will report this headline, maga will claim he’s following the law, and then he’ll continue to ignore court orders at will.

      I’ll only add that he’ll also cry about the deep state being very mean to him…

    If he was going to, he’d do it, then brag about it.

    The fact that he went out of his way to proactively say he would means that he most certainly will not.

    I mean at this point the Treasury department is compromised. It’s all over.

    If he does not, we no longer have a country. All bets are off, if Trump doesn’t need to follow the law, no one does.
