“an incalculable loss for our democracy”
Notice how people on the left never use the correct term “Constitutional Republic”.
This is not an accident. By “our democracy” they mean a government controlled by the elite with the appearance of public choice and consent.
Using the courts to overturn public opinion is just one of their methods and this is why they are so upset about losing control of the Supreme Court for potentially a generation.
There is no public choice and consent when they’re rigging elections. The vote is really the only voice the people have and democrats are stealing that away too.
