Wet dreams

The Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity is entirely political and a justifiably very concerned Joe Biden echoed the warnings of dissenting judge Sotomayor during his address. America has now ostensibly endowed their president with king status and moved the goal post yet again towards autocracy which gives those in the MAGA movement erections.

The problem is that there is no easy fix for this but for the time being it falls entirety on the electorate to save their country.

I honestly think that this latest ruling has lit a fire under many Americans who were already worried about losing their democracy to right wing appetites that yearn for a strongman to save them from the dreaded societal disease of "wokeness". If this ruling doesn't enrage you as a citizen, I don't know what will.

The hubris shown here by the 6 rabidly conservative judges borders on the pathological. Along with the ruling on the Chevron precedent they have now made it easier for the next president to unleash a whole host of actions which prior versions only had wet dreams about.

Add yet another nail to the coffin.
