Yuck. This issue is going to divide the GOP, while the left laughs.
There are two ways to react to this situation.
One is the rule of law. There is a legal process to turn it around. We have to elect Senators that will impeach Supreme court Justices. Or we elect Presidents that will appoint good judges and wait for the bad ones to die. Or we elect congressmen that will take marriage out of the jurisdiction of the courts.
The second way is rebellion. Whether civil disobedience such as the KY Clerk has chosen. Or protests. Or even armed rebellion.
Ted Cruz has called for the second method. And I respect that. I just don’t think it will work. It won’t work directly...the justices aren’t going to change their mind. It might work indirectly, her martrydom could arouse the awareness of the citizenry to vote out the rinos.
Trump had already downplayed the whole issue. When asked, he supported traditional marriage and stated gay rights wasn’t his thing. This issue is not what Trump wants to campaign on. I’m not surprised that at all that Trump responded “Rule of law”. Though I was hoping he would pull out a novel and genius approach that we could all get behind.
Trump and Cruz both need to take it one step further. They need to charge the citizenry, that if you want the law changed, elect congressmen that will hold the justices accountable and change it. We need a grass roots campaign to impeach the justices.
Other than that, I think Trump should stay clear of this issue. We need him to win to fix the other issues. No one is going to fix this one without Congressional action.
Trump does not want to “fix” gay marriage
You got that right.
Trump should state as much. I believe it would add to his poll numbers.

What law was broken? Help me out here.

The KY clerk has chosen the law! (and the constitution)
The SCOTUS has chosen to foster rebellion.
Trump being a far left democrat, is well in step with this demolition of the constitution.
