Luttig: Supreme Court Fiddling While Trump Is an ‘Existential Threat to America’s Democracy’
Breitbart ^ | 04/28/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 04/28/2024 1:36:01 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Retired Federal Judge J. Michael Luttig said Sunday on MSNBC’s “Velshi” that the Supreme Court was fiddling as former President Donald Trump’s immunity claims are an “existential threat to America’s democracy.”

Luttig said, “The Supreme Court has now fiddled while the Rome has almost burned to the ground, all but trivializing the existential threat to America’s democracy and the rule of law facing the country. America’s democracy and rule of law are the heart and soul of the nation. It’s our democracy and the rule of law that have made America the beacon of freedom from the world for almost 250 years. Donald Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020 presidential election did drive a stake through America’s democracy and the rule of law. His efforts to overturn the election disqualified him from the presidency under the 14th Amendment, and it rendered him subject to prosecution for his offenses against the United States. Yet 3 1/2 years later, the former president has remained unapologetically defiant.”

Can’t wait until the Supreme Court rules in Trump’s favor and Luttig is whining about how SCOTUS didn’t analyze all the information and the trial was too quick.

The corrupt POS left a Federal Judge seat to become the head lawyer at Boeing. Complete corrupt swamp rat.

For the sake of “democracy”, we can’t let the people choose democratically. Maybe it takes a more sophisticated mind than mine to grasp that.

Look up Napoleon Beasley. After the murder of his father, Luttig became kind of wacky in my opinion. Not like most people from Tyler TX.

The left using the word democracy is like Jack the ripper out for a night walk.

He’s an unethical POS and has been his whole career. And he got mad and quit a seat on the court of appeals after he was passed over by Bush for the Supreme Court.
So he quit and cashed in, and thinks he should still be listened to.

For Zombie-Progressives, anything short of live action, online streaming execution will be seen as “fiddling”.

Liberals are like little kids that complain no matter what happens.

Amen. Unfortunately, I think if you polled only people born after 1990, the vast majority would say we do.

Amazing how quickly that Napoleon Beasley got the bum's rush to the execution chamber.

Of course, he didn't kill a peasant.

He killed Someone Important - a federal stooge's dad.

Wasn’t this one of the Federalist Society’s top-ranked candidates for the Supremes at some point?

How is Trump regarding the constitution? That’s the only question. It is the only oath he has to follow?

Biden is anti constitution

Trump follows the constitution. He knows it. He follows it and he defends it

Anything other than that like democracy, the fascist dictatorship Biden inherited from Obama, any communism that’s just made up by thevorupt idiots in charge right now.

Luttig is just pissed that the majority of the USSC knows this case for what it really is. Democrat federal and state lawfare to keep a President who was cheated out of office from running again using state and federal statutes they’ve rarely or never used before in this way. Luttig is taking up to much air some other person could use.

There were people (even on FR) promoting this clown as a Supreme Court pick.

I guess it would have made sense, as he truly is a “Bush Republican”.

He needs to be beaten profusely about the head with a ball-peen hammer!
