It would not be "unprecedented" or "extaordinary" for them to overturn a law... that's what they do. This coming from someone who supposedly taught the Constitution.
It was not passed by a "strong majority" of Congress. That is an outright lie. Does he think we have no memory? You do remember that this monstrosity of a bill had to be passed through reconciliation because they didn't have enough Senators for a cloture vote. Please tell me you do. If not, that's exactly the memory lapse this man is counting on for re-election.
I'm not convinced the court is going to overturn this thing. But here are two thoughts:
First, all my life liberals have gotten through the courts what they otherwise couldn't get through at the ballot box. When they can't defeat "proposition X" in California, they run to their buddies in the judicial branch and have an injunction put in place to stop it. This one time the court "may" actually render a verdict in line with the Constitution and THEY DON'T LIKE IT!
Second, who does this guy think he is? What happened to separation of powers? He already talked smack during one of his State of the Union addresses towards the Justices and them sitting there. Unprecedented. So over the top that the Chief Justice said they might not return. If this issue wasn't already settled last Friday during the Supreme Courts closed door vote, he is directly trying to coerce the outcome. That's really ethical, isn't it.
Way too much power has been given to the judicial branch. Way too much. But, liberals have loved it. Until now.
What's good for the goose...
