How exaclty does an inferior court created by and subordinate to Congress even claim to have Constitutional Authority over a Branch of Government that is Separate but Equal to the very branch that ordained and established the inferior court????
I am sure you know the answer - because we have a Republican party that is afraid of it's own shadow when it comes to overturning anything Husein inflicted upon us, AND they have the NEVER TRUMPERS in that same party that are bitter for not having won their own presidential aspirations. The GOP only controls the Senate by two votes and if McStain and Grahmnesty show their hatred of all things Trump, nothing will pass the Senate and Schumkie wins.
I think there are only two solutions - Article V, or the creation of a new conservative party and shoot the elephant dead in it's tracks once and for all. Prior to the election I was praying that Trump would go 3rd party - he was the one guy that probably could have pulled it off.
Heres a list of those modern conservative small(er) government principles:
Did the GOP secure the border with control of the White House and Congress? NO.
Did the GOP balance the budget with control of the White House and Congress? NO
Did the GOP even pass a FY 2016 budget with control of the House and Senate? NO.
Who gave us a $2.5 Trillion Omnibus Spending Bill in December 2015? The GOP
Who eliminated, not just raise but eliminated, the debt ceiling? The GOP
Who gave us the TSA? The GOP
Who gave us the Patriot Act? The GOP
Who expanded Medicare to include prescription drug coverage? The GOP
Who created the precursor of Common Core in Race To the Top? The GOP
Who is working against Donald Trump? The same GOP

And, you wonder why were frustrated, desperate for a person who can actually articulate some kind of push-back?
Heres a shock We are not just pushing back against the left side of the UniParty (Obama, Pelosi and Reid), we are also pushing back against the right side of the UniParty, Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell.
‘Inferior’ federal courts did not originally have any jurisdiction over Constitutional questions. Laws were challenged in state courts and, if necessary, then reviewed by the federal Supreme Court.
I believe a series of federal laws in the 1870s stripped state courts of their primacy and handed power to inferior federal courts.
