That's true but it literally doesn't matter what you do the Trumpists will cry foul regardless and facts and reason don't apply to them. I'm just glad the US still has people in positions of power that are willing to go against Trump and actually follow their rule of law. I'm also not American, but as a Canadian I feel dangerously close to what goes on just south of the border and we have our own cadre of ultra right-wingers who are trying to upset Canadian ways in the model of what Trump does. So I'm glad there are judgements against him when warranted even if he'll never pay up and even if the amount he's penalized is a pittance to what he should be penalized and even if his followers cry about it.
