That's all you can really do (not that Trump personally had a hand in that), it is in the court's hands from there on.

You paint a picture of Trump being powerless. It's the excuse I hear for why abortion remained legal during his presidency.

But when it came to the assassination of Iran's top military leader, Trump had no problem ordering the bombing at the Baghdad airport. At his order, the military sprung into action to kill. Nobody stopped him on that. He literally ordered another man to be killed. He also gave billions to pharmaceutical companies and mobilized the military to distribute mRNA injections with an emergency use authorization, bypassing the FDA's normal safety testing. Nobody stopped him.

I don't believe that Donald and Hillary are the enemies they pretended to be on television, and it is an illusion that there are two political parties. They all work for the same master.

Yes, Presidents don't extrajudicially jail citizens, that would be the act of a dictator.

Presidents can and do regularly take out well known terrorist leaders who attack, injure, and kill US troops. Particularly after a recent attack on our troops. I'm not fond of doing this without a trial either, but this became common place after the War On Terror began and still holds true even if that long time terrorist leader has a side-job/day-job as Iran's General. The US had been trying to take that dude out for almost a decade.
