Hawaii Judge Extends Order Blocking Trump ‘Travel Ban’
Comment: Of course, worried about SCOTUS reversing so many many USDC rulings hard as it is to fathom.
The fact that they would not even give President Obama the respect to have an up or down vote on the very very eminent SCOTUS pick of Merritt Garland is DISGUSTING! Gorsuch will be voted in by the Senate. I am hoping beyond hope he is in the Justice Kennedy mold, often fair and NOT rightwingnut ideological.
Yet again, Democrats get cheated out of positions of power. If the shoe were on the other foot Republicans would be explosive! IF Obama did 1/2 of the unethical -- strike that 1/8th of the unethical -- things Trump and his team have done there would be a Vesuvian eruption and Republican heads would explode!
Obviously what is good for the goose is not good for the gander. The nepotism, emoluments clause violations and corruption of Trump are staggering. He MUST NOT be allowed to get away with these unethical, unconstitutional and potentially criminal acts! RESIST!
