Can't issue a gag order. It's an official act.

The “no, you” approach is definitely becoming a regular card in their playbook. Got to throw that shit up against the wall and see what sticks I guess.

Ah - yeah. I should've seen this coming.

It's a standard tactic for Trump, as it is for petulant and unimaginative children around the world - basically an official version of "Nuh uh! You are!"

This from the same legal team that successfully argued that the president is above the law, including having the ability to assassinate his political opponents.

Successfully argued to a majority of justices that they installed.

I support this.

Maybe also slap a locking ball gag on him.

As long as it's an "official act" i don't see why not
