It's why the 1% aren't stopping him. They could have, via SCOTUS, but they chose not to. Why? Cuz they want that big golden egg, the US Treasury, & they want it so bad they don't care if they kill the goose, the American economy, to get it. We know that cuz they've been squeezing the neck of the goose for decades with their trickle down bullshit & outsourcing.
