I'm also curious, because if it doesn't work, Donald Trump's policy will be in shambles.
And America with it, because what will we do in the coming years?
What we did before. The US was hardly in economic duress before tariffs - but if you like Trump the US economy was doomed, and if you don't like Trump it was the best economy in recorded history.
I understand that Trump is being recalled, but it seems like a decision where the Supreme Court wants to keep power out of Trump's hands, which is also what the law is intended for, of course. But times have changed, and it would have been legally possible to rule differently.
I disagree. This very specifically follows Article III of the US Constitution. Trump, and really his advisors since we all know he has no idea how the US Government works, should have used a process that was more likely to succeed instead of expecting the SCOTUS to ignore law.
I believe the Supreme Court is being unnecessarily harsh here and is placing the consequences entirely on Trump, and that makes it a political decision for me rather than a legal one. The Supreme Court must, of course, adhere to previous jurisprudence, but again, times are different now.
This argument is no different than Needles argument that US law doesn't apply because things are "different" now. The US Constitution has Amendments for a reason. It's so we have a consistent rule of law that is flexible but applied equally and not a rule of law that applies differently to lets say Trump, but not any other POTUS.
All institutions are faltering, and this decision during the Epsein file crisis...
Epstein has nothing to do with this. Another staple of US law is not bringing in unrelated aspects to undermine the equal application. If I am being sued for fraudulently over charging a customer, I can't defend myself by saying he is a ped o phile, or saying bigger companies are more evil than me.
This post is an opinion.
