Trump's legal team should go into every hearing with the judge and claim that the spending for all of these crazy programs and other expenditures is unconstitutional, whether approved by congress or not, and then ask the judge if he is ordering them to commit unconstitutional acts. Then, politely inform the judge that he has no power to make such a ruling and that they will not comply with such unconstitutional orders. This would cover a lot of bases for most of the spending. After all that, Trump should proceed with impeachment proceedings of said judge(s) for making unconstitutional rulings.
ReplyDeleteFor most of it (I don't know how much) there's precedent to claim that it's constitutional. Abuse of the commerce clause, twisting "necessary and proper" to mean whatever the fuck the statists want, etc.
DeleteIt'll need to go to the supreme court, maybe we can get some strictly constructionist rulings instead of the "living document" bullshit that claims it could mean anything at all (in which case why bother having a constitution in the first place?)
