Ron Brownstein: The ‘Real’ Check on Trump Will Be ‘the Courts,’ Not Congress

‘The Congress is not going to be a meaningful constraint on him’

RUSH EXCERPT:

BROWNSTEIN: "Yeah. And even more importantly will be the courts. I think, you know, the fact that Pete Hegseth got confirmed, even though three Republicans voted against him, you look at the kind of the allegations against him and the evidence. I mean, it isn't possible that anybody would have been promoted a rank in the army with those allegations. And, you know, 50 Republican senators are willing to put him in charge of the entire military. And I think that gives you a sense of how little restraint there is going to be. Maybe someone else might get more, you know, get the fourth vote Tulsi Gabbard or RFK Jr.. But by and large, the Congress is not going to be a meaningful constraint on him."
