Setting aside the bizarre way this screed perfectly reflects his own actions and presidency, including intentions for the court; and putting aside the utter inanity of this president unable to resist his own worst impulses to touch and undo everything he's not supposed to, including his own word; he's evidently trying to intimidate them.
Will they be cowed by this rhetoric into further bending his way on the myriad cases before them?
Or will this anger and challenge them to the point they finally make a definitive stand against his abuse of executive authority?
...the part where he whines here that, 'Democrats always stick together... Republicans do not do this.'

Roberts, though, reads in his Powell decision like he's had enough; didn't have to go as far as he did to address Trump's false assertions of authority over the Fed Reserve.
Wild that this is the hill Trump looks to want to die on.
