    Take this with a grain of salt, because I’m not a lawyer nor am I in that space. I am simply quoting the content I heard from actual lawyers.

    Trump has changed a lot of the legal world with his illegal acts. Prior to Trump, It used to be that federal court cases were often airtight. If you brought it up in federal court, it was expected both sides did their homework - all of it, every single detail. Because federal court cases were the defining “law of the land”.

    Well, during the Trump administration, his cronies have so many federal lawsuits on them, often half-ass and badly made, that it’s creating a lot of deadlock on what is “the law of the land”.

    So is it going to help now? No.

    Is it going to help later? Absolutely. If not the Federal Court, but when we do our own Nuremberg trials.
