Ex-Trump official expects SCOTUS to smack down Trump's 'imperial' bid to save TikTok

Raw Story  

Sarah Isgur, a former Department of Justice spokesperson in the first Trump administration, cast doubt on President-elect Donald Trump's ability to bend the Supreme Court of the United States to his will with a bid to delay a law that would ban the TikTok social media platform. Although Congress passed legislation giving President Joe Biden the authority to ban TikTok on Jan. 19 before leaving office, Trump has told the high court to delay the law until he takes office a day later. "Interestingly, I think that Donald Trump's brief is this great example of the logical conclusion of the imperial presidency, the idea that Congress doesn't matter throughout the brief," she continued. Isgur argued that Trump's brief to the Supreme Court "The Supreme Court probably puts them on their heels to be against whatever he just filed," she noted.
