  • President Donald Trump has ramped up his fight with the judiciary as he racks up losses in court over his administration's efforts to reshape the US government and its approach on everything from immigration to federal spending.

The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's ongoing legal battles and his apparent strategy to use these conflicts to expand his political power and influence. Trump has been actively engaging in legal disputes, particularly focusing on overturning the 2020 election results and challenging various investigations against him. His approach seems to be twofold: firstly, to portray himself as a victim of political persecution, thereby rallying his base and potentially gaining sympathy; secondly, to test the limits of executive power and legal boundaries, setting a precedent for future political maneuvers. This strategy includes leveraging court cases to delay proceedings, using appeals to higher courts, and possibly aiming for cases to reach the Supreme Court where he might benefit from a conservative majority. The article suggests that Trump's legal fights are not just about defending himself but are also about creating a narrative of resistance against what he describes as a "witch hunt," thereby emboldening his supporters and potentially influencing the political landscape ahead of future elections.
