The One Institution Trump Can’t Control
"The third branch of our government, the judiciary. And I will explain why it is a hoorah for us, even though things are so fraught, things are so hard. The judiciary, the judiciary, the judiciary, it's even hard to say, but you better learn because it's a mouthful because it's the best thing we have going to maintain and get to 251."
Cuomo argues on America's 250th anniversary that the judiciary is the most valuable branch of government because it resists political pressures better than Congress or the executive. He supports this by analyzing recent Supreme Court rulings that frustrated both Trump and progressives, demonstrating judicial independence despite political appointments.
