Does a Democratic President who follows the Rule of Law have anything to fear from a Republican judge?

I am heartened by the courts’ calling into question some of this stuff, and was especially struck by Justice Roberts’ almost immediate response to trump’s calling for impeachment (of a Republican-appointed judge, no less!). But the big question right now, wh was hit on by both From and Fuller, is enforcement. If trump and the others in power refuse to acknowlege the rule of law let alone adhere to it, and there is no enforcement, no matter how may injunctions are issued, they are completely “in power” and we’re in huge trouble. (As an aside, I hate the use in the media of the words in “in power,” wh in itself offers power. It should be “in office” as a reminder that there is a term, not a stronghold).

Are they each an equal part of the government with its own powers and responsibilities? Is the President the top executive in the Executive Branch. Do the Democrats want to look forward to a time when a Democratic President is subject to Republican judges?
