It has been 50 years since the conservatives had a majority on the Supreme Court.
Donald Trump, the most incompetent President in the history of the USA, has put a conservative stamp on the Supreme Court and our country for decades.
Trump has done something many more competent Republican Presidents could not do.
Amazing
Actually not.
The Supreme Court had a conservative majority prior to Trump.
What Trump has accomplished is the creation of a social conservative Supreme Court majority; a majority comprised of rightwing ideologues hostile to privacy rights, hostile to the due process rights of immigrants, hostile to the equal protection rights of gay and transgender Americans, and hostile to the voting rights of minorities.
In essence, Trump has succeeded in doing away with our Constitutional Republic and the rule of law – citizens will no longer be able to seek relief in the courts when Republican state lawmakers enact measures that violate citizens’ rights and liberties; government – not the rule of law – will determine who will have his rights and liberties, citizens’ rights and liberties will now be subject to the capricious ‘will of the people’: the ignorance, fear, bigotry, racism, and hate of the people, exactly the opposite of what the Framers intended.
