Trump Bullies The Judiciary To See If It Has Any Spine

^{Published on 2025-01-09 14:40:39 - MSN}

I suspect many of you are a little dazed and confused by the flurry of court filings in the waning days of the Trump transition. There's a lot to track, and the stakes might be a little unclear to you.

The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's ongoing criticisms and attacks on the judiciary, particularly in relation to his legal battles. Trump has publicly attacked judges, prosecutors, and the judicial process, especially in cases involving his business practices, the 2020 election, and the January 6 Capitol riot. The piece suggests that Trump's strategy is to test the resilience and independence of the judiciary by bullying and discrediting it, aiming to influence public perception and possibly judicial outcomes. This behavior is framed as an attempt to undermine the rule of law and the checks and balances that are fundamental to American democracy. Legal experts and commentators cited in the article express concern over the implications of such actions, noting that while judges are expected to remain impartial, the constant barrage of personal attacks could potentially sway public opinion or even judicial decisions in subtle ways.
