Yes, Congress has gone belly up, thanks to the cowardice of Republicans, who control both houses, and the Executive Branch is fully undef his control. But the courts have rendered many, many rulings against Trump's illegal and immoral actions. Even the Supreme Court hasn't given him everything he wants. It's true that the immunity ruling handed down by the supermajority has caused huge problems, but I don't think it's fair to condemn the entire judicial branch as being Trump enablers.
