The sweetest sound Donald Trump could hear last week was that of his outgoing Energy Secretary, Rick Perry, proclaiming him the chosen one"ordained by God" to be President of the United States. But this was soon followed by the ringing declaration of Ketanji Brown Jackson, a US District Court judge: Trump is no king, she said, decisively rejecting Trump's effort to shield his former White House counsel Donald McGahn from testifying before Congress.
"The primary takeaway from the past 250 years of recorded American history is that Presidents are not kings. This means that they do not have subjects, bound by loyalty or blood, whose destiny they are entitled to control," Brown wrote."Perry says he told Trump to his face that he was 'the chosen one,'" wrote Jay Parini.
