I spent 3 years and half a million dollars getting a law degree…and it make me feel good to know that everything I learned there doesn’t actually fucking matter. All I needed to learn was that if you are appointed by an authoritarian Cheeto, the law is what you make it.
I have a friend who had a case before Cannon and told me that she was both one of the stupidest and the meanest judges she’s ever dealt with, which is saying something since she practices primarily in Florida. As a representative of the caliber of judges the Federalist Society has to offer, Cannon is pretty damning… and if we get four more years of Trump, the federal bench is going to be stacked with jurists even worse than her.
I was wondering how much this Trump fuckery is going to effect legal precedent since precedent seems to matter quite a lot in the legal system. Or do you think most judges are going to straight up just say Trump gets more legal rights so precedent set by him doesn’t matter?
They don’t give a shit about precedent. They are fascists appointed by an insurrection leader. They will make decisions that benefit Christian nationalism without regard to anything else.
They’re not the only Judges though. If a otherwise normal judge was given an argument in court that brought up the precedent Trump set, laws start to fall apart. I’m worried that many laws will become almost unenforceable no matter who the judge is.
