Is Donald Trump Bullying Judges and Law Firms? Has he taken a page from Hitler’s playbook?

It appears that Trump is bullying America's legal system. Nine of America’s largest and most powerful law firms have surrendered to President Donald Trump’s illegal threats. They demeaned themselves by agreeing to provide an astonishing $940 million in free legal services to causes chosen by Trump and the firms while also agreeing to discontinue their DEI policies. Fortunately, other firms refused and are fighting back. Trump bullied the legal system by following Hitler's playbook. The most ominous parallel is to Nazi Germany, where Adolf Hitler successfully bent the German legal system to his will, with the complicity of German lawyers and judges, just as Trump bullied America's legal system.
