Trump must break judicial power
Pat Buchanan: 'A clipping of the court's wings is long overdue'

“Disheartening and demoralizing,” wailed Judge Neil Gorsuch of President Trump’s comments about the judges seeking to overturn his 90-day ban on travel to the U.S. from the Greater Middle East war zones.

What a wimp. Did our future justice break down crying like Sen. Chuck Schumer? Sorry, this is not Antonin Scalia. And just what horrible thing had our president said?

A “so-called judge” blocked the travel ban, said Trump. And the arguments in court, where 9th Circuit appellate judges were hearing the government’s appeal, were “disgraceful.” “A bad student in high school would have understood the arguments better.”

Did the president disparage a couple of judges? Yep.

Yet compare his remarks to the tweeted screeds of Elizabeth Warren after her Senate colleague, Jeff Sessions, was confirmed as attorney general.

Sessions, said Warren, represents “radical hatred.” And if he makes “the tiniest attempt to bring his racism, sexism & bigotry” into the Department of Justice, “all of us” will pile on.

Sieg Heil.  The first step fascists, socialists, and authoritarians of all stripes take is to "break the judicial power."

Down this road lies madness, pure madness.

With some 70 odd vacant judicial seats, what's he waiting for.

There is very good reason we have 3 co-equal branches of government

Unfortunately Pat doesn't offer any suggestions on how to do this that I could see.

Fixing the judiciary requires an assertion of state powers not the whims of one man.

Personally I think the state legislatures should be who picks federal judges and that the judges should come up for review every 10 years or so. They might not be so willing to step on the state powers

Maybe we just have more faith in ourselves than Trump supporters do but I don't want any one man to "fix" the world for me or to even try at all.

Scummity often had PJB on his radio program.  He would always slobber over him and call him 'brother'.
Always knew that the anti semites were united.
