Trump will 100% ignore the defense reserve. Congress won't stop him either.

Expect many “court finds that Trump …” headlines with zero consequence.

> Trump will 100% ignore the defense reserve.

I'd love to see someone try to refute this as the obvious outcome given every decision Trump has made, especially in his second term where he has far less sane babysitters around him.

This is the "If we stop testing right now, we’d have very few cases, if any" guy.

This is the guy calling for steep rate cuts in the midst of a serious inflation problem.

This is the guy that sabotages solar and wind power, intent on keeping us on oil and "clean coal" (lmao).

He's 80 years old and a malignant narcissist, he doesn't give a single fuck what happens to anyone after he's dead (and he knows that'll be pretty soon) as long as he gets what he thinks he wants today.

> Congress won't stop him either.

Also something that proves out daily.

		FWIW if I understand correctly what people say about Trump’s psychology, which if he is a malignant narcissist is a pretty complex maelstrom of instincts, he is actually at a disadvantage in imagining ever dying. He will not be able to cope with the idea, or be able to rationally plan for it. Unlike other eighty year olds he is not thinking of a future without him in it; rather nobody else has any future without him. So he is not acting nihilistically but desperately and grandiosely, as a way to deflect from the whole concept. I think there are many examples of this in recent months, but they are moderated by his inability to stay awake.
