Founding documents to resolve our disagreements. As a lawyer I’m guessing you once knew that before you crushed your critical thinking skills to allow you to remain a cult loyalist.

Trumpies seem to get that when it comes to Gaza now, for example. Hamas being elected once does not make it a democracy. What’s missing is something like a judiciary, which citizens might use to force new elections, protect their various freedoms, and generally make it so that he with the most guns doesn’t get to dictate to everyone else.

That’s the essence of trumpism’s giant shit all over the constitution. I disagree with this CO decision. I don’t think they should take the choice out of voters’ hands without a conviction, at least. We’ll see what happens on appeal, but the one thing you can bank - I’ll accept the ruling of the courts because I’m a fan of democracy, not a cult. You’ll respect only whatever it is that gives you the result you demand. That could be the courts, but if that doesn’t go your way, you’ll consider your phone, twitchy and red state, and Jonathan Turley to be the great deciders.

Unfortunate truth - nothing says autocracy like Trumpism. And it’s devotees.
