      Judicial activists are judicial activists, better that they reflect public opinion if you don't want bloody uprisings

      The GOP is no different about the courts than the Democrats. Just more ruthless and theocratic.

      This is the legal nihilism progressives have preached forever. You ought to know better. The Constitution actually says things, which were ratified by the people. Written law has meaning. You're now embracing the rejection of that as a first principle.

      And I don't believe that the current GOP gives a rat's ass about that meaning. They certainly don't care if the one man responsible to "take care that the laws are faithfully executed" cares about that meaning, so you can get right off that high horse, counselor. /1

      As I said to Hewitt during the election, I'm not willing to trade away the rest of the Constitution just to see if I can get the outcome I want on some case. That's not a win: that's tearing up the Constitution to get things I happen to like. No, thank you. Out. All of them. /2x

      Ah, but that is precisely what you're arguing. You want to burn down the law for good to get at one man.

      No, I want to remove the party that is enabling and empowering an anti-constitutional authoritarian. There was a time I would have thought we'd be on the same side of that.

      C’mon Dan. There is 0 evidence that Biden is easily bullied. Secondly, the GOP is about as activist as you could possibly get re: the Courts and the rule of law. Think about this ridiculous ACA lawsuit that almost every legal expert left or right I’ve seen said is poppycock.

      If Biden's not easily bullied, what happened to his four-decade position on the Hyde Amendment?

      It’s not about being bullied. It’s no different than HW Bush becoming pro-life abruptly or, uh, the guy in the White House. For better or worse, the two parties have stratified on abortion & you’re not getting nominated without hewing to the party line.

      Comparing Biden to Trump is not supposed to be a compliment. Of course, Trump is an extraordinarily weak president. In his case, that's a good thing. But unlike Trump, weakness by Biden empowers a party full of people with far darker views of America & its system.

          I don’t think that’s true at all. At this point, we’re the ones who want to make the American system more reflective of its ideals. And to perfect it. Whereas, the right will destroy the American system to impose its religious views on the 70% of Americans who don’t hold them

          I agree w/you 100% Dan. Plus, if Trump was as authoritarian as some claim, then this pandemic would’ve proven it. He had ample opportunities to use this unprecedented situation to wield federal control, but chose to leave it up to the states at every turn.
