What Gorsuch's originalism puts at risk (opinion) - CNN.com

Though they mostly did not call it by its name -- originalism, or the theory that the Court should interpret the Constitution using the meaning its words and phrases held when they were originally written -- Republicans praised that philosophy for helping Gorsuch rise above politics. As Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa put it, this philosophy insures that judges don't try to "update the Constitution and, in so doing, don't take from the American people the right to govern themselves."

Then this dick goes on to attach originalism as a tool of the rich.

OMGOSH.
 
The only thing originalism puts at risk is the regressives desire to use the courts to rewrite the Constitution. They're too fucking lazy to try Article 5.

Most of what they want, in opposition to the clear wording of the Constitution, they know damn well that they could never get enough public support to legitimately amend the Constitution to allow. They cheat because they know that they have no hope of winning honestly.
