El ataque de Trump contra el sistema legal.
The American president systematically advances on pillars of US democracy. The pressures Trump has already subjected part of the press and universities to have also reached the country's Justice system. The Republican's new target is "big law," that is, large American law firms. Last week, Trump released a statement threatening to punish lawyers and firms involved in cases he considers "frivolous, irrational and vexatious" against his administration -- sanctions that could prevent these professionals from accessing public buildings and prohibit them from closing contracts with the government. Days earlier, he had already attacked the judicial system by threatening to impeach a judge who blocked an executive order from the Presidency. To explain Trump's new offensive, Natuza Nery talks with Guga Chacra, commentator for TV Globo, Globonews and CBN radio, and columnist for the newspaper O Globo. He details, for example, the case of the Paul Weiss firm, which has already capitulated and agreed to provide 40 million dollars in legal services for causes supported by the Trump administration. Guga also comments on the possibility of the American president running for a third term -- which is unconstitutional in the USA.
