John Yoo, a former clerk for conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and the former deputy assistant attorney general, warned on a podcast this week that Donald Trump may cause a "constitutional earthquake" with some of his suggested plans once he takes office.
The article discusses concerns raised by Mark Paoletta, a former aide to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, about the potential for former President Donald Trump to cause a "constitutional earthquake" if he wins the 2024 presidential election. Paoletta warns that Trump might attempt to enact policies or take actions that could challenge the separation of powers, the independence of the judiciary, or other constitutional norms. This fear stems from Trump's previous tenure, where he often clashed with judicial and legislative branches, and his recent comments suggesting he would seek retribution against political adversaries. The article highlights the tension between Trump's potential actions and the established checks and balances of the U.S. government, suggesting that such moves could lead to significant legal and political turmoil.
