I do agree that he would win because the courts have essentially conceded omnipotent power to him and Congress has refused to do anything but talk a lot.
I truly believe at this point that he can, very literally, do anything he wants because even if the courts rule against him it's toothless because there is no way for the courts to enforce anything on him.
