It is becoming increasingly clear that Trump doesn’t feel in any way bound by lower court orders. He will only obey the Supreme Court. That is his way of proving to the public that he acknowledges at least some limits on his authority, while, as a practical matter, rejecting the rule of law.
Of course, no other party in this country has the right to ignore orders from lower courts, so this new “standard” actually proves that he believes he is above the law. How will the Supreme Court respond to this insult to the system? We figure to get lots of opportunities to find out in the near future.
