GOVERNMENT HITS THE WALL, Dan Henninger writes in the Wall Street Journal:

The Obama presidency has been an American version of the European Commission from which the Brits fled. Except that U.S. courts still review, rather than rubber-stamp, the Obama Commission’s executive orders ranging across labor, the environment, the internet, financial institutions and universities.

Had U.S. courts not pushed back against many of the Obama government’s rules and “guidance” directives, the famous “pen-and-phone” authority, this presidency would have come close to putting the states in the same relation to Washington as that between the once-sovereign states of Europe and Brussels.

If Woodrow Wilson was the American godfather of this transformation, Hillary Clinton is its handmaiden. She knows the drill. With four more years of an Obama-Clinton presidency and possibly Democratic control of Congress, the 100-year-old progressive goal of making the 50 American states obey one set of administrative specialists who reside in a single city will be close to complete.

So yes, whether to vote in November for Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump is an interesting proposition. As has been noted, Brexit was a big surprise.

Only to those too snooty to not be paying attention; as Kurt Schlichter writes, “You Owe Them Nothing – Not Respect, Not Loyalty, Not Obedience.”
