Democrats attempted to pack the Supreme Court.

They gave us a new verb, "Borking."

They attempted an "electronic lynching."

They tried to do away with the presumption of innocence.

These are only a few examples that come immediately to mind of the mischief committed by Democrats directed at the Supreme Court. But Democrat atrocities have not been directed only at the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court and inferior courts have done mischief against the rule of law and against the very Constitution itself.

The Supreme Court for years has been a place where Democrats are bringing guns to a knife fight because the Republican appointees have either gone over to the dark side or, at best, they hold to their oaths and lay the facts down against the Constitution while Democrat appointees work backward to adjust the Constitution to accommodate a leftist political goal. A 5-4 majority means only that the Democrats need to pick off one originalist because they always have there four justices. An original justice plays by the rules while the four leftists are simply rigged.

Along the southern border, Democrat judges have been waging political war against the constitutionally authorized policies of the chief executive. In places like Ferguson and Baltimore, Democrat judges and Democrat prosecutors have perverted their office for political purposes and, worse, to demagogue race.

Leftist pressure groups, justifying themselves with race demagoguery or environmental alarmism, have reduced the federal court system to an arena of law warfare or, another new word given to us by the atrocities of the left, "lawfare."

When the rule of law breaks down no civil society can endure. No democratic republic can endure. No economy can prosper.

WHEW! It's a good thing then that America is a Constitutional Republic instead of a democratic republic, isn't it.
