The Retrograde Supreme Court

One of the outcomes of the Civil War was the supremacy of the Federal government. The Union fought under a single government, more or less, while the Slavers were a loose confederation of states. And they lost.

But it seems to me that the Supreme Court has been doing its level best to bring back states' rights and reverse the outcome of the Civil War. Hell, if it wasn't for the Thirteenth Amendment, I have no doubt that this current iteration of the Supremes would bring back chattel slavery.

Now, with Demented Donnie's claim for immunity, the Court seems to be setting its sights on reversing the outcome of the Revolutionary War by turning the presidency into an elected kingship. I am pretty sure that, if the Founding Fathers were to come back, they'd go to the Supreme Whoreshouse Courthouse and administer a round of painful dopeslaps.

    Every deposed monarchy will attempt to reconstitute itself, often through religious assertions of legitimacy. The current supreme court is taking on the role of the clergy in a monarchy.
