“He can’t say whether... he won’t say whether... he refuses to say whether...”
Let me say it again, these dimwits wouldn’t be able to tell you the difference between a search and a seizure, and they think they deserve an answer to hypothetical warrants and writs and charges that aren’t written yet.
Here’s one way that cases get to the Supreme Court:
- court rules for Party A. Party B appeals.
- appeals court rules for Party A again. Party B appeals again.
- appeals court rules for Party B, and sends it back down to the court that gave it to them.
- appeals court rules for Party A, Party B appeals.
etc, etc. Between remands and reversals and consecutive appeals and alternating appeals, you don’t know what the law is on a case from year to year or even month to month. Follow United States vs. Bullock if you like for an example. That’s back and forth five or six times over a three year period.
Hacks.
Democrats are in favor of state decis - as long as they like it.
If they don’t, they battle to overturn it to ge a decision they like.
No, I don’t regard Roe and Obergefell as “settled law” just because liberals their preferred reading of the Constitution is holy writ.
