Not really. The media is amplifying the 45 court "wins" (which are still mostly at the SCOTUS level and are only in effect "until the lower courts are done their cases" ). But the vast majority of district and appellate court rulings have been AGAINST 45.

The problem is this SCOTUS mess, which is being done through what they have dubbed the "shadow docket", where rather than allowing the lower courts' rulings stand (putting holds on these illegal actions) until the cases are all fleshed out, they have overruled those lower courts to let the damage continue while the court cases play out.
