Fellow Trump voters: How do you think the Donald is doing so far.

I don’t think you actually know your Constitution. A government of judges is not what the Constitution says. They are one co-equal branch. Yet due to the nature of a two party government they are allowed to be especially creative with interpretation without any real danger of being removed.

You called it a government of judges. Which doesn’t exist. Judges don’t govern, they make judicial decisions. I’ll bet you hate the idea of unelected judges unless they hand out rulings you like.

You really don’t understand why the need for appointed judges that can rule as they see fit without pressure from the electorate or the other two branches.

Except that even the judges have checks and balances. Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? Appeals and Supreme Courts. Any judge who gets too activist is very likely to have his or her decisions overturned, and no judge likes that.

And now for the “Are you shitting me?” award of the day.

There was a lot of competition, what with Spicer and Conway attempting to reinterpret Trump tweets that are obvious to anyone with half a brain and Republicans scurrying like cockroaches when the light is turned on over the AHCA and its CBO score.

But no, they don’t quite make it this time:

Texas bill would fine men $100 each time they masturbate

The headline made me laugh out loud to start with, but that’s not why it wins. (It’s a point a female TX legislator is trying to make about the double standard applied to men vs. women.)

No, the winner is the response of a Republican state rep to it:

[QUOTE=Tony Tinderholt]
“I’m embarrassed for Representative Farrar. Her attempt to compare to the abortion issue shows a lack of a basic understanding of human biology,” said Rep. Tony Tinderholt in a statement.

“I would recommend that she consider taking a high school biology class from a local public or charter school before filing another bill on the matter.”

[QUOTE=CNN]
Tinderholt recently proposed a bill that would charge abortion providers and women receiving abortions with murder.

As usual with Republicans, we’re left wondering whether it’s ignorance or malicious intent, but based on that last fact, I’d lean toward intent.

Anyway, read the article for context. It’s not very long.

:dubious: He wrote one of the world’s leading documents in favor of freedom. He also imprisoned innocent men, women, and children, and tortured them until they worked for him. The latter shows its influence in the former.

Well, fair enough – but I genuinely don’t see that there is a noun-versus-adjective difference, even if you’re trying to be insulting. Someone in another thread recently referred to Trump as a lying coward; I don’t see that it’d be more insulting to instead spell out that Trump is a liar and a coward. Call a guy a hypocritical bigot, or say he’s a hypocrite and a bigot; are you sparing his feelings in either case?
