The Supreme Court has no business even entertaining this case. If the SC tried to rule in his favor, it would prove the SC is a completely corrupt, illegitimate institution.

The House is in charge of impeachment. There's nothing the SC is going to do to stop it. That would be unconstitutional.

He seems to think that everyone works for him personally. He has no idea how government works.

I just saw the report posted on another thread that he actually thinks he can go to SCOTUS for this!! His response to EVERYTHING is to sue. And what's a small bit funny - is that in virtually every lawsuit his administration has filed, he has lost.
