It's still worthwhile to point out what Trump and his people are doing is illegal, because we don't want to normalize it, but don't expect anyone to be held accountable.

Even if a judge rules against actions the courts have no means of enforcing their rulings. They rely on law enforcement to do that. People obey court orders either because they accept the court's authority or because of the threat of the order being enforced.

When the criminals control the cops and corrupt the courts there is no Rule of Law anymore.

It's not like the people who voted for Trump didn't know he was a felonious criminal. They're getting the lawless government they asked for. Unfortunately the rest of us are getting it too. It's "mob rule" in the Mafia sense of the word.

The only government entity left that could hold Trump accountable is Congress, which could impeach and remove him, but is also under his control via spineless and toady Republicans who will never vote to either impeach or remove him.
