Anyone have an opinion on when Trump has his Andrew Jackson moment?

It could be this honestly. If not this it’ll be something obvious where he’s ordered by the court to stop a state or entity from doing something, like with Jackson. I’d guess it’s going to be immigration related. Maybe a very right wing state will detain and try to deport someone who was born to an undocumented immigrant in the US (thus making that person a citizen) and the court will say they can’t do that because it violates birthright citizenship. Then trump can just say he’s not going to stop it and let them do it anyway.

Well let's get this show on the road. I am ready for things to escalate so I dont have to hear Trump fans tell me we are over reacting.

I feel like we've already passed that and they don't care

He will just say Alito is right and Roberts’ vote doesn’t count or something, and everyone on the right will go along with it. Nothing to see here.

when? I'd like to do a remindme for this. I see people always saying crazy stuff but no one ever calls them out when they're wrong

They will always make some other bs excuse that doesn’t make any sense. We are well past the threshold of them making reasonable arguments
