- skhunted 2y agoThis is part of the foundation that will make doing bad things the new plolitcal norm.
- danielmarkbruce 2y agoIf the president is a crook and the senate is full of crooks, that's the foundation. This is a minor fixture.
- skhunted 2y agoJudicial complicity is not a minor thing.
- danielmarkbruce 2y agoSure, but this is just a single decision, and who are the judges supposed to be complicit with? The current president? The last one? The next one? A specific party?
- skhunted 2y agoComplicit in the sense of helping to set the stage for future abuses. Not complicit in the sense of conspiring. SCOTUS has made quite a few bad decisions which set the foundation that I speak of.
- danielmarkbruce 2y agoThe ruling certainly sets the stage for something. It's almost like they didn't want to actually rule, but rather set up a framework for making future rulings. I can't say I disagree with the approach.
