The point wasn’t to blame one Congress critter. The point was to awaken folks to the fact that one political candidate is not to blame for what happened to Davis.

Cruz was in a position to do something. Trump wasn’t. Trump is now the focus of negative energy. Cruz is the darling.

You don’t see a bit of a conflict there?

I would remind Cruz that cases come down all the time, and are considered to be precedent. A ruling is generally considered to be broad spread. It applies across the board.

SCOTUS rulings are never required to address an issue in each state for that ruling to apply.

I’m no legal scholar, but this concept is obvious even to a layman.

Trump's opinions regarding gay marriage seem to exempt him from any role in repairing the damage done by scotus. He is compromised on this issue...totally compromised just as our much lauded Vice president Cheney is and any number of politicians you can identify and name.

I don't think you can rationally say that his statement about the decision being the "law of the land" is somehow superior to the statement of Ted Cruz who explained that legally the decision only applies to the litigants.
