People have talked about this administration producing Constitutional crises, but I suppose here's the first chance for them to produce a genuine one: do they comply with an order of the Supreme Court, or do they simply ignore it? I'm actually betting they'll ignore it. And even if they actually comply, what will the administration's response be? Packing the court? Getting to Congress to say he doesn't have to pay the money? Going after individual justices? Some combination of all three? So many opportunities for real Constitutional crises. These are exciting times.
