Let me explain this.

Imagine a kid who takes the football from another kid and keeps it for his own. That is, until the kid’s mother finds out and tells her child to return the football. Which he does, through a friend, while ostentatiously declaring he has magnanimously decided to turn his football over to someone else.

The court’s ruling is that Trump doesn’t have authority over the Kennedy Center, never had it, and has to stop acting like he has it. So Trump is directing the Commerce Department to return the authority over the Kennedy Center to Congress; who never gave it up in the first place. 

Because, for the smart alecks who want to say Congress gave it up by default, it doesn’t work that way. This is not a situation where Congress has let the Executive get away with something for decades. This is something Trump did in the past few months, not something Presidents have been doing since Washington. Had Congress waited to assert its authority until 2027, it still would have been a valid assertion. The court is just refusing to let Trump claim executive privilege, or “unitary executive privilege,” or whatever. Might as be “King’s ‘X’,” in other words.

But Trump has to claim it’s his idea and his magnanimous decision. Because our President is a three year old. However, all that fear mongering about Trump ignoring the courts? Yeah; looks like that’s not gonna happen.

Trump just gave up the football and went home. He’s going to have to get used to this feeling. This is going to be the rest of his presidency.
