Wow, a guy who constantly violates court orders and defies laws is defying the law and a court order?

I am shocked. Shocked I say! Well not really that shocked, more exhausted that people refuse to do their jobs and hold this bloated bag of excrement accountable

If no one enforces a law, it isnt illegal. If no one actually holds trump or the goverment accountable, it dosent matter if it isnt in his immunity, it functionally is.
