'Profoundly Wrong': JD Vance Tears Into John Roberts' Assessment Of The Role Of Courts
“That’s one-half of his job,” the vice president said.
"“I thought that was a profoundly wrong sentiment,” Vance said during an interview with The New York Times’ “Interesting Times” podcast recorded during his trip to Rome.
“That’s one-half of his job,” he added. “The other half of his job is to check the excesses of his own branch. You cannot have a country where the American people keep on electing immigration enforcement and the courts tell the American people they’re not allowed to have what they voted for. That’s where we are right now.”"
Now while I think the way justices are promoted to their roles should be changed to make it less partisan, the Supreme Court and the judiciary is clearly a separate branch. Anyone with any knowledge of the US Constitution knows this.
But Vance is peddling crap, he knows he's wrong, he doesn't care.
This, along with Trump saying he'll run for a third term, and other things, shows just how dangerous people like Trump and Vance are. They don't care for the checks and balances of the country that were introduced to stop people like them in the first place.
