Why are Trump and Republicans relentlessly attacking judges?:

"Authoritarianism involves arranging government to keep the leader safe from prosecution and allow him to commit crimes and corrupt acts with impunity. That means judges and prosecutors are always among those harassed and persecuted, along with lawyers who defend dissidents or don’t fall into line with the government."
