Closing take

The common thread on March 10 was not subtle. Trump’s operation kept trying to turn unilateral action into a governing theory, and the response was a reminder that law, institutions, and basic competence still exist even when the White House wishes they didn’t. The result was a day of visible pushback, awkward defenses, and more proof that this presidency’s favorite move is often also its dumbest one.
