So, it’s either healthcare subsidies or food? You can’t have both? Even though we had both before Republicans took it all away, so they could give tax breaks to Trump’s rich donors?
I think by saying he’ll defy a court order, he’s letting the supreme court know they have to okay whatever bullshit he comes up with. Otherwise, it will become obvious that they can’t do jack shit.
In a less polarized and post truth world you’d probably be right. I fear however that the solid 36-37% maga base will never find an issue that can’t be spun or rationalized. In the magasphere this situation seems to be framed as the GOP stepping up to fight against free health care for illegal immigrants which seems divorced from reality.

Fuck these assholes.
It’s also a bit of PR nightmare for the GOP. Trump defying the court order shifts the blame back onto them.

Was the order even appealed or did he just tell them to pound sand?

I guess they don’t even have to bother.

It’s a cult
Reality genuinely doesn’t play any part in things with them
