It didn't work as a message during the election. And it's really difficult because most people don't know or care what the federal government really does.

Yeah, I think a lot of this is really going to land in the courts, right?

I mean, I think that this is the one area that can actually stop what the executive branch is doing and is going to be the sort of final say on the limits that Trump is testing to see whether or not what he does in how he's firing people in the federal workforce, or, you know, not wanting to continue congressionally approved funding, if any of that is constitutional or legal, it's going to be settled in

in the courts. And we know that there's a 6-3 conservative majority at the Supreme Court. So Trump is happy to test as much of this as possible. And we'll see where the court decides to actually stop him.

I don't think that's wholly accurate, to be fair to Democrats here, because I don't think the Democrats have the same powers that Republicans did have.
