Its the only system currently in existence and it still includes hundreds if not thousands of constitutionalist magistrates, judges and justices in the mold of Justices Roy Moore and Tom Parker in Alabama plus Alito, Scalia and Thomas.

I've got news for you friend. It doesn't really exist any more. In my mind it's gone way over into illegitimacy.

You're argument that there are still good judges is like arguing during the Nazi rise to power that there are still good Germans.

That may be so, but does not address the fact that the bulk of it has turned evil.

Interesting analogy. I am currently reading The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. As you may know, immediately prior to Hitler’s seizure of power, the German court system resembled ours. I.e. one side, the Nationalists, could get away with anything, including murder, and receive no more than a wrist slap. The other side got nailed to the wall for the most trifling of minor offenses.

Iow, the courts were completely political with no thought for justice. When a legal system becomes such that one side of the political spectrum is a foregone winner and the other is a foregone loser, the country is on the skids.
