The problem we’re running into is this: if leftist courts uphold leftist legislation for 11 months out of every year, with the 12th and final month being reserved for correct constitutional rule of law, then how are we not living under de facto communist rule? At some point, the Supreme Court needs to address the routine abuses of the lower courts. We can’t continue to live under a system where every decision handed down by our Supreme Court is just an invitation for the commies to get creative.
I agree fully, and unfortunately that’s just a systemic problem, no matter who is on the Supreme Court - the other “side” will always get creative with its local laws wherever it has power and the laws will last a little while, at least, since SCOTUS can’t touch them until a case comes before it that lets it rule on the general type of law at least, if not the specific law itself. My best take on how to solve the problem in the existing system is for the federal Courts of Appeals to do their jobs better. But even then those courts have known biases, same as SCOTUS: so with our current conservative SCOTUS, a liberal state within a conservative Circuit Court’s territory would quickly see a knowingly BS law struck down, but a liberal state within a liberal Circuit Court’s territory will see the law upheld until the very last challenge at SCOTUS. I expect to see a lot of BS continuing to come out of the West Coast states, for example, since the 9th Circuit is just about Communist itself and will uphold whatever SJW nonsense those states pass until SCOTUS can finally toss the nonsense out.
