ANN ALTHOUSE ON TRUMP’S CRITICISM OF THE DISTRICT JUDGE WHO STRUCK DOWN HIS IMMIGRATION PLAN: “There’s absolutely nothing wrong with criticizing judicial opinions, and this one lays itself open to criticism.” “As some commenters are pointing out, the phrase ‘so-called judge’ could be called an attack on the man. But the only basis for saying “so-called judge” is what the man in the robe is doing in this particular case. There’s nothing against him as an individual. It’s very close to saying, in a substantive legal way, that this is a man who is acting beyond his proper judicial power.”

What’s funny is, with all the pearl-clutching today, when Trump has put a conservative majority on the Supreme Court all right-thinking people will be denouncing the justices and their opinions constantly, in the most inflammatory terms, and the criticisms of Trump’s incivility will be memoryholed.
