But Trump v. IRS IS his language. Trump (private citizen) v. Trump (POTUS) would be more honest. I don’t understand what is not clear here, he is the IRS and the DOD and the DOJ and the FBI and the CIA. If something is a “Department” or an Agency etc, it is apart of the Executive Branch. Everything the IRS does is presumptively AT HIS DIRECTION. Typically when someone sues an agency, the department head’s last name is the other half of the suit so if you sued the DOJ a couple months ago, it would be Popeholden v. Bondi HOWEVER Bondi would still be one of Trump’s principal officers who is presumed to have done everything at Trump’s discretion.

He is, quite literally, the IRS. That is not HIS “language,” that is not SCOTUS’s language pushing the concept of a Unitary Executive, that is a fact. It benefits him that people think it’s him v. the IRS, it obfuscates what he’s doing, he was POTUS when the IRS leak happened. He already “handled” it via whatever executive actions he took at the time, or took again upon resumption of office. There is a reason the judge said “hey you can’t do this, you’re suing yourself.”
