I wonder what the "conservatives" on the SC think when they hear Judge Luttig

[senseandsensibility]

say that not one person in a position of authority has stopped cheato's delegitimization of the courts and undermining of the rule of law. He is a true conservative hero. Do they feel nothing when he says, as he did just now on MSNBC, that a mob boss could never do the damage to our system of justice that cheato is doing?

Judge Luttig is saying that cheato's continual threats against judges may end our democracy. Do they care at all?

1. The SC conservatives are nothing but wingnut ideologues. They don't give a shit about democracy.

2. The judges are acting like victims who are powerless.

Or they are complicit and deliberately helping a ruthless sociopath commit more crimes.

I don't see one judge who seems to give a damn about equal justice under the law, or democracy.

It has been a real eye opener.

4. Yes it has

I can't help but wonder what everyone is afraid of. Not just the SC, but they are the ones with the lifetime appointments. It doesn't seem like that makes them any more "independent" than elected Rs.

10. The SC has been corrupted with billionaire money.

So some of the justices take their orders from the oligarchs who bribe them.

Other justices are political hacks who legislate from the bench.
Laws which cannot get passed because voters would not approve, the SC can shove down our throats.

These are justices who agree that citizens should have as many military assault weapons as they want and regularly murder Americans at school, work or play. And SC justices who want women going back to the dark ages.

I don't know why they are also so afraid of Trump.
It is a mystery. Cowards.

3. But but but the vacations and perks are

of utmost importance. Law? What law?

[senseandsensibility]

5. Yeah, I think the sad truth is that

the Rs on the court are just like cheato and secretly admire him.

6. Was he on Fox News?

Seems to be their research bureau.

7. No he was on with Nicole

and she did a great job of interviewing him.

8. I imagine that Judge Luttig makes them feel like sullen, recalcitrant, arrogant punks. n/t

[rsdsharp]

9. They think, "We're on the Supreme Court, and you never were."

“We have a lifetime appointment, and you retired.”

All of which adds up to “Neener, neener, neener!”
