On things that really matter - like his personal liberty or finances - he has gotten an awful lot of compliance from the courts. The USSC has already made law when they carved out their immunity decision.

That was an important case, but it was one case. He lost nearly all of the cases he brought during the 2020 election. The only other major win on his personal matters that made it to SCOTUS was the Insurrection Clause case, which was a real long shot to begin with and which was unanimous in his favor.

If Trump is "fine with the courts ruling against him" on actions he takes that don't involve his personal finances or position, he wouldn't be a dictator in the mold of Marcos. Arguably, not a dictator at all - if almost all domestic policy is outside of his control, that's not really dictatorial powers.
