    I’ve said this before, but being an elected politician should be treated as a position of service, not of status and excess. If you want the office for the right reasons then having some downsides to taking the power should be no big deal.

      Democracies are only as functional as their courts. I think the US court system has been failing its people in a lot of ways, for some time now.

        Yea it’s almost like a particular party has a think tank which invaded prestigious law schools, and strated grooming lawyers right out of highschool to become judges for republicans. Just like everything else in this country today, they removed the merit, installed nepostism, and control the narrative.
