Stephen Miller: "It is a literal statement that President Trump has freed 700,000 people in this city who were living under the rule of criminals and thugs." I bet Miller knows what "literal statement" means and it's not what Trump (or, from what I can tell, the press) thinks it means.

It's not even cake. EOs direct executive branch members to do something. If those actors do something requiring state action not already required by law, the state should contest it in court. You shouldn't fight the EO; just the actions taken as a result of it.

The current USAG's prosecutorial discretion doesn't prevent a future USAG from suing for all that law-breaking. They CAN do that now. But it doesn't prevent someone from not doing it in the future. Trump's EO is worthless as protection. To a business, that matters.

Trump's not going to veto a bill stopping Medicare cuts that will make him look bad and affect 'his' voters. He would certainly veto anything touching the tax cuts or the absurd increase in ICE's budget.

It's likely they'll lose the House in the midterms. Then they'll blame the Democrats during the Presidential campaign. Or, better yet, the Democrats will stop the cuts from taking effect with help from 'moderate' GOP votes in the Senate and it won't be an issue anyway. But the tax cuts will stay.

Weird fact: when you vote on election day, you do not vote for President. The President is elected by the Electoral College on the first Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December and 'faithless electors' are a real thing. And if they fail, the House elects the President.
