@bibliolater that gets the argument backwards, though.

The idea isn't that the Court would grant Trump more power but rather that it would remove power from other branches, that have been throwing the system off-kilter for years, recognizing that the president has more responsibilities and accountability than he's had lately.

It's not granting power. It's recognizing the system of checks and balances at the core of the US design.
