    Conservatives talk so much about wanting limited government… but so quick to try to throw out literally what is taught in elementary school about… keeping the government in check.

    What somewhat baffles me the most… is it’s not like they are really even worried about being stopped… only slowed down.

    We know damn well that trump owns the supreme court… and half the federal courts. So the point is at the end of the day his orders are going through anyway, as the supreme court will continue to pick up these and overrule all precedent, constitutionality and general law.
