Chris, while I’d like to agree with you, I can’t.
Bad judicial verdicts have to be appealed. We can’t just ignore them.
If we ignore them, we go over the line breaking the law. Then there is a charge to be made that is valid whether we like it or not.
If Trump is in violation of the law, he’s breaking the law. We support law and order.
Congress is where relief on this needs to come from if the SCOTUS declines to provide it.
Would I love to see Trump tell these judges where to go? Sure I would. Then I have to calm down and look at it in legal terms.
I don’t think the SCOTUS or the courts have the right to stop Trump from doing anything that is legal for him to do, or is proper for the president to do.
The SCOTUS and other courts have overstepped their mandate. Congress should slap that down.
Once again, here is another think the Congress is failing to do with it’s new found majority and with a Republican president in office.
In my view, the government has demonstrated over and over again that it is not morally justified, and is in that sense, illegitimate,. Sure, it has the brute force to knock down dissent, but as far as I am concerned, the government is out of control and out of constitutional boundaries. It will never use its own law to rein itself in. Congress does have the power, in principle, to correct this - with more than one means., It can impeach, it can disband the courts, or it can legislate the immigration order that Trump attempted to impose. But Congress is not interested in controlling the borders, it is all in for globalism.
I do appreciate the realpolitik of this. Congeress and the courts will tag tem to impeach Trump. Courts will continue to make asinie rulings against executive power, and Congress will furrow its brow. If Trump tells the Courts to stuff it, Congress will impeach the president.
Totally out of control system. Oh, the government of Venezuela is legitimate too - see its court decisions.
What’s to be fine then when the court rules that the law Congress passed to provide “relief” is itself unconstitutional?
The thing is federal judges are not the law, they are not lawmakers, and they are not obeying the law.
I do not wish to be ruled by unelected and unanswerable politically appointed lawyers.
And congress is total and complete failure, full to the brim with liars, cowards, snakes, schemers and plotters.
I have no respect or need for any of these people.
However, I do respect your very well reasoned post, and normally I would agree, but I may be at a point that lies beyond reason now.
