With Trump being President, he will maybe get to appoint 3 conservative judges that will apply the Constitution, rather than "interpret" with left wing feelings. With luck the court may end up with a 7 to 2 view of the Constitution, as written. One way or the other Gorsuch will be confirmed, and when at least two more senile old judges either resign, or kick the bucket, Trump will get to appoint an additional two more. If Trump continues to appoint younger conservatives, the court should be safe for at least another 30 years from liberal judges that would pervert it.
A classic example of the type of judge we dont need on the SC is that fool judge from Hawaii that has stopped Trump's lawful executive order to stop "refugees" from the middle east. He is putting his feeling and politics ahead of the Constitution.
I used to want liberal judges, but no more. Yet it was the cons who gave us corporations being treated like an individual citizen. They gave us this corrupt campaign financing system, with billions flooding in from special interests who are literally bribing the person they support. The rich do not throw their money away out of some patriotic duty, most are not patriotic at all. They want law and policy that benefits them, even if such policy weakens America and hurts her people. So with con justices, the bribery lives on and just gets worse. Yet they are still better than these liberal judges who rewrite the constitution in accordance to their ideological political beliefs to a much greater extent than a conservative.
I just thank goodness that the founders already knew what was needed, no matter what technology did for the next 250 years.
Especially the 4th amendment which means that the birther-in-chief will not sign the bill that kills Internet privacy laws and protection.
Which bills has the GOP written affecting those amendments will come to the orange man's desk for him to sign? Duh!
The first and second amendments need NO changes. They just need to be obeyed as written. To my knowledge Trump has no plans to change them.
Who said they did on this thread? Can you not stay on topic he who claims to be logical? It is the 4th amendment which I was referring to that Donald Dump will be faced with when signing a bill to overturn Internet privacy policy, protection and laws.
The bill did not change any regulation that was currently in effect, so there is NO net change in Internet privacy.
1. I thought the Constitution gave Judges the right to decide what was or wasn't lawful. I just re read the Constitution and didn't see your name there. 2. According to your posts of a few short months ago you thought executive orders were unconstitutional. What happened to change your mind? 3. Perhaps he put his understanding of the Constitution ahead of your feelings and politics.
The question is------------------had he even ever read the Constitution. His actions suggest he has not.
Judges decide cases depending on what the law says; not the same as deciding what is and what is not lawful -- or for that matter not what should be lawful or unlawful. Some EOs are constitutional; some are unconstitutional. Some are lawful; some are not.
I agree with most of what you're saying and given time I can see President Trump moving on these things. It behooves all of us to be heard on these issues, he campaigned on draining the swamp. We should start with lobbies and special interest groups,abolish the former and limit the latter. Campaign financing must be severely limited. I want to see term limits and an end to congressional pensions or at least make them pro rata. If we don't change Washington and soon we the people will become irrelevant. The level of corruption in Washington can be measured by the intensity of the campaign to oust Donald Trump.
