The mechanism is a government shutdown next month that brings his presidency to a screeching halt. All of these court rulings give the Democrats back up to shut it down.---Jason
I don't think it's going to matter what the judges decide because Trump and Musk are already laying the groundwork to ignore the judges rulings and the Constitution. We are basically living in North Korea where they can do anything they want because no one can or will stand up to them. Any country that gets rid of a law that makes it illegal to bribe a foreign government is telling you all you need to know about the type of people that run that government.
I will repeat again. Stop focusing on the individual rulings. One court ruling will not stop this. What will stop it is a government shutdown. The court ruling give Democrats the legal back up to justify a shutdown next month. It doesn't matter if the administration ignores the rulings. The enforcement mechanism will come from Congressional Democrats. Look at the big picture of what is building against Trump.---Jason
We should be clear that it's the Republicans who are shutting down the government. The Democrats are refusing to enable the Republicans, who have majorities in the House and Senate and the White House. If they can't get some of their fellow republicans to support their budget, they come asking for help from the Democrats, who should just say no.
The president's immunity is for criminal acts. Most of these suits name other government officials and would be enforced by civil contempt proceedings against those officials.
Writing to John Roberts this minute. He should not be immune from hearing how a citizen reacts to how decisions of a 'partisan' SC have yielded a totalitarian president.
The mechanism will be a government shutdown. Look at these rulings in terms of the big picture of how Democrats will have justification to shut it all down and stop him. The court rulings are one piece of a bigger resistance.---Jason
Trump is really going to be the emperor with no clothes. He is a fake, who mastered a few well known persuasion techniques, which got him pretty far actually, but he lacks the iq to see ahead, and his ego makes him feel he is smarter than everyone else. That will be his fatal flaw.
What process applies if they disregard the court decisions? Republican politicians seem unmoved to stop them. And they are hurting our citizens all ready.
The courts are holding for now. The true constitutional crisis will come when.....and if....Trump decides to refuse to obey the ruling of a federal court. His lackey and ass-kisser, J.D. Vance, has indicated in past videos that he is willing to do just that. If that happens Trump will have mass demonstrations in the streets. He may very well invoke the Insurrection Act even if demonstrations are peaceful. We'll find out just which Americans are willing to die for their Country. And it godamned surely won't be Donald Trump.
The problem is there’s no enforcement mechanism. The courts can rule anyway they want and I read this in another column that legal declarations will start to sound like press releases unless there’s some enforcement mechanism. I don’t know if it matters; will some generals break with the Hegseth side of the military?
I am all for anything that stops The Traitor President.
I agree with the courts but wonder what mechanism there is to get him to comply. Can he simply just disregard the judge’s orders?

And what happens when he grabs cash despite the shutdown? He has all the access through DOGE
I like that. It's worth the pain of a
shutdown if not long lasting.
Sure seems like he can do anything he wants to do and people are harmed before the Judges can rule on it!
Even if there is a mechanism in play, he will probably try to disregard with appeal.
Fortunately there are some brave judges who will prevail at least temporarily.

Does Trump, At this point, really care if the government gets shut down?
Dems can shut it down by doing nothing to help. They have to unite and we have to try to get a few Republicans to grab their balls and take him on.
💯🎯💙✌🏻
Arrest him
Will never happen because he has immunity. Let's live in reality.---Jason

Good for the courts, now if we could only get the Congress and Supreme Court to do their jobs.
Writing to John Roberts this minute. He should not be immune from hearing how a citizen reacts to how decisions of a 'partisan' SC have yielded a totalitarian president.
That is the Orwellian fear
Keep it up right through the rest of the 4 years! Why would a President stop money for research grants? He is about as evil as a person can be!
And why would he take food away from hungry children?
Cruelty has always been the point with felon 47 and his fascist Rs.
He doesn’t give a sh*t about anyone. He only cares about who is giving to him.
Because he never had a day of struggle in his life!
At least we have some recourse!! Next we need to impeach Trump and that will get rid of Musk and his Muskrats!!!
Who will enforce them…Elon and J D Vance are promising to violate the court orders

Sometimes hard to see that from where I am sitting. And a government shutdown has its own problems.
Elon and JD Traitor have no immunity. They can be charged with contempt and punished.
Correct

I agree with the courts. Trump does not have the authority he is trying to wield.
LOVE IT Trump is going down as well as his lil sidekick Muskrat
Thank goodness for our court system.

Watch the last word on msnbc tonight. Humor me.
