    So, did we cross the Constitutional Crisis Rubicon when Trump ignored the judicial order?

      The answer is of course yes, but I don’t think it’s really from a line that we crossed. It’s more like saturation. They are not a vanguard of this lawlessness, they are more like a pressure that is infusing it into all systems all at once. They are a swarm.

        Yeah… the floodwaters have surged and it’s sort of rushing over lawfulness with abandon. I really like this analogy - thanks.
