Slam dunk at the Supreme Court?
No, same problem, 3 or 4 of the SC justices will rule how they want the outcome to be and not according to the law.
This one is so clear, that — unless the Supreme Court decides to completely jetison the meaning of all words, and totally shred their credibility, and even emperil their existence — that I predict a 8-0 or 9-0 rebuke of the Ninth Plane of Hell’s ruling.
Don't bet on it!
No.
Judges are drawn from a particular class. Supreme Court Justices, even more so, This class has firm beliefs about right and wrong, justice and injustice, and in the case of some of them, about Tikkun Olam, the necessity of using whatever tools are in their hands to set the world right.
John Lennon expressed the beliefs of this class concisely:
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
We the People sent Donald Trump, let's be honest, to destroy their world.To blow up their favorite ride at Disney World (It's a Small World After All). To napalm the idiots singing "Imagine" in Times Square on New Year's Eve.
You don't think they're going to give up what they've built, on the cusp of their total victory, because the hated white working class, which is supposed to die (Williamson) or be replaced by brown and yellow people (Kristol) sent an orange Cheeto man to the White House, do you?
This is their plan: Donald Trump will need to ask a District Judge every time he wants to fart, or else he will be sued into oblivion, until he quits or is impeached and removed for farting without permission.
And to be honest, I can't think (right now) of what the proper counter is.
I just know that Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell are laughing their asses off this morning with their good friends Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.
