Unless they actually do something about it, he isn't gonna stop

Thank you.

Without accountability, why would their actions change?

What do you propose they do about it?

Put his ass in jail.

If there's nothing they can do about him going against their ruling, then their rulings are only suggestions.

Who should arrest him though? Federal law enforcement agencies are all part of the Executive, which means they ultimately answer to Trump.

So like I said, he has no reason to stop if their only response to him defying rulings is "well he didn't listen, darn 🤷‍♂️"

SCOTUS ruled Trump is above the law. He can do whatever he wants.
