U.S. President Donald Trump invoked Napoleon Bonaparte on social media, signaling defiance against legal challenges to his executive authority. Quoting the French leader, Trump declared, "He who saves his Country does not violate any Law," drawing sharp criticism from Democrats. Senator Adam Schiff labeled the remark as dictatorial.
Trump, who assumed office on January 20, faces multiple lawsuits accusing him of overstepping congressional powers outlined in the U.S. Constitution. While Trump claims to respect court rulings, his advisers have publicly criticized judges and called for their impeachment. Vice President JD Vance defended Trump's stance, asserting that judges cannot limit the executive's legitimate powers.
Washington attorney Norm Eisen, involved in Trump’s first impeachment trial, highlighted that Trump's legal team often argues presidential actions are inherently lawful. Eisen described Trump's statement as a deliberate provocation.
The quote attributed to Napoleon, who established the Napoleonic Code before declaring himself emperor, has fueled ongoing debates about Trump's exercise of power.
Trump also linked his survival of an assassination attempt in July to divine intervention, stating that God spared him to save and restore America’s greatness, echoing his longtime slogan, "Make America Great Again."
As Trump’s legal battles head toward potential U.S. Supreme Court showdowns, his assertions of executive power continue to dominate political discourse, intensifying divisions in Washington and beyond.
