Perhaps one day a court will find that Donald Trump conspired with his personal lawyer Michael Cohen to pay nondisclosure agreements meant to silence his mistresses. Perhaps one day the House will impeach Trump for breaking those campaign finance laws, and then maybe the Senate will also remove him from office.
Those are the mechanisms that have been provided by the Constitution to thwart a president from appointing justices to the Supreme Court. I’m afraid there’s no clause in the document that empowers angsty liberal pundits and politicians to question the legitimacy of duly confirmed justices.
But much like their ideal Supreme Court, Democrats have set about fabricating brand-new extraconstitutional standards that happen to always align with their partisan aims. Their latest concocted stipulation states that anyone nominated by a president under suspicion of criminality becomes “illegitimate.”
