The woman chosin to rescue trump from the real world is facing the ravages of the country trying to fullfill her assigned job of stopping an e******n, keeping the criminal in office and making sure he can avoid jail time..
It seems a challenge she can not meet and is not prepared for.. a justice of the SC is meant to enforce the laws of the land, not help the critin in the oval office avoid the punishment for his life time crime and abuse..
She has not spent nearly enough time practicing law (as opposed to teaching it) to be on the Supreme Court.
She claims to be an “originalist”. This is the legal version of Biblical literalists, who claim that their interpretation is privileged because (they claim) it isn’t an interpretation at all. This is clearly codswallop. It would require thinking that an appropriate definition of “cruel and unusual punishment”, “speedy trial”, “m*****a”, “unreasonable search”, or dozens of other things have not changed in society between 1791 and today. It also ignores the historical fact that the people who wrote and ratified the Constitution immediately began to disagree about what parts of it meant. The idea that there is a single “right” historical interpretation of the entire Constitution is preposterous, but it is an article of faith with some people who apparently can’t defend their legal theories with anything other than an appeal to authority.
She has written that the only rights we have are ones specified in the Constitution. This directly contradicts the Ninth Amendment; anyone with that poor an understanding of the Convention should not be on the bench in any court.
She refused to answer simple and direct questions with obvious and clear answers, such as whether the President can legally delay e******ns, during her confirmation hearing. This clearly positions her as a political actor, not a legal one.
The very fact that she was willing to accept a nomination under circumstances where a) she has written that a nomination should not occur and b) the man who nominated her has made it clear that he views the nomination as part of a plan to have the Court decide any e******n disputes in his favor clearly indicate that she lacks the judgement to be on the Court.

Okay, I have concluded that you write these posts with a huge grin and tongue in cheek because no adult could possible actually believe the things you write. I await the day when you finally admit it's all been a joke just to provoke comments.
