“Everybody learns in the first year of law school that the law that’s challenged is presumed to be constitutional,” Blumenthal said. “That is a heavy burden for anyone challenging the constitutionality of a law to overcome. When in doubt, uphold the law. There is a lot of room for doubt here, and there is a lot of clear precedent that requires this court to uphold this law.”

This is a very telling statement on the thinking of liberals. The fact a law is passed deems it "Constitutional". Thus creating a bar which must be overcome in disqualifying that law. I think we have a window into the process of creating this boondoggle of a law, the process that the democrats and socialists used in drafting this monstrosity.

It doesn't matter what it is, what's in it, or how unconstitutional it is. If it becomes law, it will be next to impossible to overcome.

I think this time we will have justice and the thing will be killed by the SCOTUS 5-4. Should be slam dunk 9-0 but that is not possible with the leftards we have now on the SCOTUS.
