It would be much more disruptive to our nation if openly anti-democracy forces like Trump's were allowed to do whatever they want without being stopped, so yes, I would hope that a court would allow a suit to continue. There's no guarantee, though.
Anyway though, the Republicans finally managed to pass their horrendous tax-cut bill, which cuts middle-class taxes a little, for a few years, and rich people taxes a lot, permanently. If left unchanged this bill will continue America's slide towards even greater inequality, so it needs to change, soon! Basically, fix it by leaving the middle-class bit but raising taxes on corporations and the rich. But the good side is that with how impressively unpopular the tax cut bill is, a very rare thing for a tax cut bill in this nation, it should hurt the Republicans in the 2018 elections. And with how badly they've done in elections this year even without that additional damage, that could be good news. Polling averages already have the Democrats up by 12, the most seen at this point in an election cycle since polling began in the late 1930s, and on average things only get worse for the party in power from this point on... here's hoping!
The problem is, of course, that until we get to that point the Republicans will keep damaging our nation and the world. Coming up next, the drumbeats for a war with North Korea continue, irregardless of the fact that millions would probably die, many of them our allies...
