(640 posts)If the law is stated and a certain group, supreme court, keeps bending the law what does the law really mean? Why is the roberts court going out of their way to cover for this wanna be dictator? I know, like you and I know, that there is a lot of money involved. Therefore, is it the court doing the ruling or is the court ruling in order to keep their financial benefactors happy? If, and I said if, the questions I have can be corrected then the Supreme Court will be the final deciders if and when the time comes. I.E. if Citizens United is over turned legally by a law that is passed will the SC find a way to make the law illegal?
I mean the courts are not supposed to be making "law" but ever since roberts got control of the SC that is what he has been doing. Previously the SC would say this law doesn't stand because a, b & c. Then our legislators would fix it and pass it. Now the SC says it doesn't pass because a, b and c so this is what will be the law, isn't this illegal? And why does roberts feel untouchable, maybe it's the money or maybe it's because he helped the republicans do this: https://www.salon.com/2005/07/21/florida_33/

(232,375 posts)But we keep hearing that they waited for another TFG presidency to retire so he can choose their replacements who could serve for 40 years!
And you're right, the majority on this Supreme Court with their presidential "immunity" majority decision seriously places this country in danger. Most presidents in our history know the law and follow the Constitution, but TFG knows nor follows either so takes advantage of this decision that no experienced or qualified president would (like Biden). As bad as it's been so far, I fear that it could easily get worse with a lawless president and a court that favors him, like you said.

(3,904 posts)To defend a lawless president the people become a sacrifice. The question is how long can the citizens hold out? I thought I knew anxiety and stress but this is gut wrenching beyond anything that I have experienced. I wonder how broken they need us before they can comfortably suck clean the bones of victims and sprawl on the floor to count their lootings?
