They’ve been very careful to provide a “safety net” concurrent with the hollowing out of the economy. It wouldn’t work otherwise.

Actually he is largely right. Definitely in describing the principles of the Constitution. And he’s right about Wilson basically scrapping everything, which has become the precedent which just about every pres has tried since then.

‘Hey Freepers, why not discuss the issues Nap raises instead of just ad hominem attacks?’

“Apparently he is still butthurt President Trump blew him off.”

Would you like to rephrase that statement?

I can’t believe he did such a 180 on Trump.

Every lawyer studies the Constitution and every Judge needs to know it to hear and decide cases.

I think the Nap a bore and an idiot, but in the posted article he made substantive claims based on stated law.

Why not discuss it?

Shove it! Judge Nap does not deserve the decency or respect of a debate. He deserves nothing but ridicule and scorn. FR is not a debate society anyway.

The law and history Nap writes about should be discussed. Ad Hominem attacks deprive you and other Freepers of finding the truth of the issues.

Re. Nap making claims based on stated law. Yes, he made claims based on what HE says is the stated law.

I’m sorry but why discuss “law and history” that just isn’t so? I have a real problem not with Nap expressing positions. Rather, I have a problem with him doing so under the imprimatur of being an expert who knows more than you and I.

Take his argument that tariffs are taxes and only congress can impose them. As if Trump is the first POTUS to impose them. OMG!!! For goodness sakes it is so easy to shoot that false statement down that even CNN can do it:

https://money.cnn.com/2017/01/23/news/economy/trump-tariff-power/index.html

Congress has granted the POTUS the power to impose tariffs. They can take it back if they want.

Probably bad phrasing. Nappy is upset President Trump did not react favorably to his entreaties.
