Struck down and revised till it met the standards of our laws.

Nope, never struck down.

Shrug…

I completely support it and by all means deport Trump if you can.

They created a system of gov’t that required a moral and honorable people for it to function.

They never anticipated that we’d one day see activist judges undermining their creation for political gain.

Had they, they’d have left us an easy way to remove those judges from the bench and sanction them.

I’m ok with defiance of a bad SCOTUS decision. My contract doesn’t say I agree to be ruled by a nonumvirate of unelected lawyers who routinely ignore it.

I never thought I’d see the day when a principled conservative would flatly declare that the founding fathers were full of ■■■■ when they developed a system of government to guard against exactly this kind of behavior.

Who am I kidding? I’ve been watching it happen for over three years.

Did they? Did they develop a system of government in which I am ruled by 9 unelected lawyers? Which “founders”?

Why again did our Founding Fathers insist on the 2nd Amendment again?

Not the founders fault. Before we amended their work to change the way senators were elected senators had the power and motivation to keep the judges in line. The 17th screwed it up.

Who has ultimate jurisdiction over immigration? The President or a judge?

A judge(s) will decide. How do you think that’s going to go?

My question is: Why is there a “special waiver” for deporting criminals in the first place?

That was my question too. What was the original intent of that provision
