'That will end this': Trump warned to not push his luck with the Supreme Court

Acknowledging he is "cynical " enough to believe the conservative-majority Supreme Court will side with Donald Trump on a bevy of DOJ lawsuits appeals headed their way, former DOJ official Andrew Weissmann suggested there are a few the president might want to might want to nip in the bud to avoid a humiliating loss.

Speaking with the hosts of MSNBC's "The Weekend," he was asked about the president's growing legal problems as his policies are challenged in federal court.

Referring to the Supreme Court being the final stop, Weissmann was asked, "What should we expect there?"

"I think some of them will definitely end up there," he began. "One thing to note about the judges, in spite of the administration saying these are activist judges, the judges who are ruling against the administration are from, you know, Democratic appointees, Republican appointees, you have Trump appointees. You have a unanimous Supreme Court decision saying that these people in El Salvador were entitled to due process and have to be given due process."

Pointing out that Trump has seen "judges who have just had it," with his flood of appeals, he singled out attempts to force law firms into submission.

"I think the orders where all judges have said the law firm orders, they are four executive orders that have all been struck down by the courts, left and right, so to speak. I don't think if the administration is smart, they're going to take that to the Supreme Court because that will end this," he predicted. "I mean, I think they will los and right now they're doing pretty well on just the sort of fear factor and the terrorizing effect of the executive orders, even though they keep on getting struck down unanimously."
