71. If he continues to defy court orders and rulings

Sat Feb 4, 2017, 01:13 PM

Feb 2017

at some point law enforcement will need to step in to arrest those in the administration who are in violation, up to and including Trump. This needs to happen before he can marshal enough law enforcement, the military and private security (Erik Prince!) loyal to him to stave off arrest. As an example, at the beginning of the Muslim ban, CBP, which is an armed branch of federal law enforcement, was clearly defying court orders and siding with Trump. And just in the past few days the leadership of the Justice Department belongs to him. Will it come to sending a SWAT team into federal offices or even the White House? Is so, how will that end? The longer he's allowed to amass power, the worse it could be, including the defeat and casualties of the forces attempting arrest.
