Yes Trump is accelerating the breakdown of Rule of Law.

But the breakdown of Rule of Law is what led to Trump, not the other way around.

If the 1% couldn't steal, commit fraud, launder money, etc with impunity Trump would have been in jail instead of running for Pres.

If you want to break a massive amount of laws, you can't do it without the help of lawyers lobbying your case. And, of course, this is so off the reservation that they're all implicit in the same crime.
