Trump literally said this about allocating credit and blame for yet-to-be finalized performance of the slew of candidates he endorsed in races across the country:

“Well, I think if they win, I should get all the credit….And if they lose, I should not be blamed at all, OK. But it’ll probably be just the opposite.”

There are so many quotes to be considered the Trumpiest quote of all. That one is at least in the discussion.

No coup for you, Donny.

The dissent is actually interesting: the point made by Alito and Thomas is an extremely narrow one - they feel the Court must accept a filing on cases in which it has original jurisdiction (state v. state). In a bit of a slap, they explain that they would not grant any other relief (the injunction sought).
