Under the Trump Administration, compliance with court orders, especially regarding immigration and government funding, has been significantly delayed or ignored. Legal expert Samuel R. Bagenstos expresses concerns in a recent conversation about the implications of these actions, questioning the use of the term "constitutional crisis." He argues that while it might be termed a crisis, it represents a severe threat to foundational constitutional principles that have been worsening over time, particularly highlighting the recent unprecedented months in American governance.
...call that a crisis or not, but either way we are in deep, deep trouble.
We're living through a massive assault on basic premises of our constitutional system... it’s been acute for the last two months.
‘Constitutional crisis’ has so many potential meanings... I think we're much more in that second mode here.
