Although he acts with lawless impunity daily, he does not control much outside the executive branch, certainly not the states and their elections.

This administration has been stopped stalled or stymied numerous times over the past year.

No troops were deployed in Chicago or Portland- why didn’t Trump “just do it anyway” despite the court orders?

Kilmer Garcia is a free man on US soil- why didn’t Trump just leave him in El Salvador, despite the court orders?

Liam and his father are back home in Minnesota- why didn’t Trump leave them in the Texas concentration camp despite court orders?

He is an agent of chaos, and he is panicking, but that doesn’t mean he will succeed- he has a long history of being a miserable failure, and his failures as president far outnumber his successes (defined as achieving the ends he seeks)

Trump is not omnipotent, and the states and the people are not powerless.
