    Rick Hasen Retweeted John Dean

    I think this kind of overly simplistic reflexive analysis of judge's motivations on a close textual question does no favors to those who seek to oppose Trump on legal issues when case is much strongerhttps://twitter.com/johnwdean/status/935649271914754048 …

    Rick Hasen added,

    John DeanVerified account @JohnWDean
    Brand-new Trump judge simply ignores the law creating the Consumer Bureau to let the White House begin demolishing this GOP-hated protector of the public. Hopefully higher and more impartial judges will differ. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/28/us/politics/mick-mulvaney-leandra-english-consumer-bureau.html …

        In other words just because one hates Trump doesn't mean his legal positions are inevitably wrong. And claiming arguments against Trump's legal position are easy in cases where they are hard undermines credibility across the board.

        Disagree. Many legal analysis concur with @Johnwdean

        Disagreement among legal scholars suggests that it's not an easy legal question, which weighs *against* the inference that the court's decision must have been motivated by political bias. Not everyone is as unscrupulous as political partisans.

        John Dean doesn't think the question is "close" so you seem to be at least partially talking past each other.

        Okay, haven’t read the opinion but I distinctly recall that GOP bent over backwards during CFPB’s creation to assure that a president could not bypass Senate confirmation to install preferred director. This is not over.

        So the Federal Vacancy Act is superior to all other law. Nothing can ever change that process
