This reads very much like the ideals of a mass murderer (McVeigh, et al.) expecting his action to spark the “race war” that will finally purge America and purify it.
The former head of Project 2025 believes an “unchained” President Donald Trump has made immense progress during the first 100 days of his second term toward undoing liberal gains dating back to Franklin D. Roosevelt.Trump is not being stopped in court because he’s lost all “his” lawyers. The positions they are being asked to take are indefensible and contrary to law. New attorneys won’t fare any better than the ones who have quit, and certainly won’t be better qualified.
But Paul Dans — who led the effort to produce a detailed conservative transition plan and policy blueprint that was at the center of last year’s presidential election — believes the president needs an influx of new attorneys to fight for his policies in court. Those battles, Dans told NBC News, will shape the next 100 days.
Trump’s problem is not the courts or the lawyers. His problem is the law, and the Constitution. One lawyer flailed so badly in a hearing on his Motion for Summary Judgment that the Perkins Coie lawyer had only to sit back and watch. The same fate awaits the DOJ lawyers in the Judge Dugan case, which is going to intimidate judges as much as Trump intimidated Canadian voters. Almost every EO Trump has issued has been stymied if not overturned. I know of three lawsuits credibly challenging his authority to even impose tariffs, and a new one challenging his authority to remake federal agencies according to his whim. It’s only a matter of time before challenges to his authority to act as he has become general enough to undo everything he has done wholesale, rather than piecemeal.
And all the king’s lawyers, and all the king’s paralegals, can’t put that Humpty Dumpty together again.
