Once the government influences /corrupts / takes over /controls the system of justice, any semblance of democracy is fucked.

And once it's gone, how can it ever be restored without an independent judiciary, which is needed to uphold the constitution? 

Uneducated, unsophisticated and gullible magats have elected a convicted fraudster and rapist (and self-confessed sexual abuser of women), who is supported by none other than the Supreme Court!

I hold them solely to blame for allowing Trump to highjack the judiciary and, in so doing, the democratic process in America and for ruining its reputation throughout the world.

Like many others now, I have lost all respect for America - a country I grew up admiring so much.

I only hope its allies will punish them by deserting America and aligning with Europe (and even China) instead. Dumping the dollar would also be a good move.

And I'm going to sit back and laugh as I watch Bucky and his gullible maga-mates see their economic circumstances crash and burn.

And just look what is going to happen once the tariffs begin to take hold!

I'm also waiting to say 'We told you so' when the magats realise that Trump has taken away their social security benefits and given the money saved to his billionaire mates instead.

How can so many people be so stupid?

"This is much worse because this is going to the functioning of the U.S. attorney's offices nationwide," George Conway said. "And it really is –– I mean –– we're seeing a Justice Department including the FBI that is on the edge of a full scale revolt because they're being asked to do things that are just contrary to what they are obligations to the nation are and their ethical obligations as lawyers."
