We have in this particular case is that I think the president was proceeding on the understanding of the statute that's faithfully represented here by the Solicitor General, which is he wasn't acting like a removing authority that was subject to any due process. Because if I think he were, if he were sort of subject to that, he wouldn't have said in his opening tweet, "You must resign." And he wouldn't have said two days later, "Resign or be fired." So that, does that mean it has to be a body of disinterested decision makers? No. People who are not part of the executive branch and can exercise independent judgment that way? No. Then what does it require? It requires just what I said, notice an opportunity to provide evidence and a decision maker hasn't prejudged the issue. That decision maker can be the president. I mean, I'm not sure I, you know, necessarily recommend it as my choice A, but how can it not be the president, the statute authorizes the president to make the removal decision? How could it be anybody else? Well, look, I mean, you know, if you believe in the unitary executive theory, then anybody that makes the removal decision is acting on the president's power. I think it would, it would work, you know, I think the way it worked for Taft is the tribunal made a recommendation and then Taft executed. Right. So was the president making the decision? The president has to make the decision, right? Were delegated to somebody who he wishes to make that decision was reportable to him. Yes. Yes. Okay. At will. At will. Yeah. Right. Absolutely. I mean, so, so, and the president can be the final decision maker, but if he's going to be the final decision maker and there's a due process, right? And I mean, I mean that statutory or constitutional, then, you know, he needs to be a little bit careful and say, these are the allegations. He can't start by prejudging the issue by saying resign.

Authorship Analysis
Aide-Written
Indicators:
  • No written text is available, so no stylometric evidence (typos, grammar, syntax, capitalization) exists to anchor an attribution
  • Posted at 15:51 UTC on 2026-01-22, which converts to roughly midday-to-afternoon in both plausible local frames (~16:51 CET if still in Europe post-Davos, or ~10:51 EST if already back in the US) — business hours in either timezone, consistent with routine staff media curation rather than late-night impulsive posting
  • Appears amid a cluster of same-day posts including two other bare retweets and several empty entries, suggesting a batch/curation pattern typical of staff-managed content rather than a single spontaneous personal share
  • Content is a legal/procedural oral-argument clip requiring some legal sophistication to select and clip, which is more consistent with aide or legal-team curation than impulsive personal posting
  • Absence of any personal caption, reaction, or framing text further limits confidence in attributing intent to Trump personally versus a staffer amplifying favorable-seeming legal commentary

Daily Digest A Davos victory lap punctured by one poll, and a day that ends naming enemies instead of accomplishments

Trump wrapped up his Davos trip with a heavy posting day — 53 posts in about seven and a half hours, most of them a rapid-fire burst of video clips and self-reposts that looks staff-driven rather than personal. The mood turned sharply in the early afternoon when a New York Times poll put his approva...
