Not anything I'd bet on. He'd lose most of the Republican support he enjoys now, no doubt.
You'd think the party that has no problem disenfranchising 10,000,000 and more of your fellow citizens, based solely on the colour of their skins, would have problems creating a new Dr. Roland Freisler to further smooth their path to a one party state?

He's just fighting for any win to save face at this point. And if parts of it are deemed illegal or unconstitutional, and eventually it does pass in some drastically altered form, I bet he'll claim victory and say he was right about its legality along. Then his supporters will hail it as the gospel truth. :/

Where did I say that they would not want to do it?

By stating he'd lose most of his support by doing it.

Which is not the same thing, at all. That fact may not fit in with your Endlossung fantasies, though.

More than a few people thought he;d lose his support by going full on racist too.....particularly with regards to the demographic that republicans have decided to woo with all their might...and even more stridently in the face of the ramifications for business, that the right loves to pretend to fellate......and yet.....
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Since the Repubs are in control they could simply write all of the provisions of the EOs into law.
I would actually be shocked if the 9th circus court jesters would rule on the side of the White House. They're the most overturned appeals court in the country and 68% of the jesters were appointed by democrats. They're leftist ideologues who have no business serving on any bench. It'll go to the Supreme Court.

Heil Trump, right A Theist? Anyone who disagrees with you isn't worthy of having a job they are objectively qualified for!
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
