Chris Hayes discussed his wife, constitutional law professor Kate Shaw, who testified about judicial injunctions at a Senate hearing. During her testimony, Senator Josh Hawley suggested that Donald Trump was unjustly treated by biased judges, citing an increase in injunctions during Trump's term. Shaw challenged this notion by proposing that Trump's controversial actions prompted these legal responses, implying a correlation between the president’s behavior and the judicial response. Hayes highlighted this significant insight, particularly in the context of Shaw's expertise in constitutional law.
"The number of nationwide injunctions during Trump's presidency far exceeds those of previous presidents, suggesting a unique pattern of legal challenges against his administration."
"Professor Shaw indicated that a plausible explanation for the surge in injunctions is Trump's engagement in more lawless activities compared to other presidents."
