Supreme chaos – Daily Kos

Published on

Unsurprisingly, the Supreme Court handed down several decisions these past couple of weeks that have been nothing but a handout to President Donald Trump in his relentless and racist crusade against immigrants and his perceived enemies.

Not only are these rulings disturbingly inhumane, but they also pave the way for Trump to continue inflating his executive power. And as America celebrated its 250th birthday this weekend, it’s hard not to feel utterly hopeless for the future of our democracy when the nation’s highest court continues to serve one man and one man alone.

Seems like we could all use a laugh—so here are some of our favorite cartoons highlighting the absurdity of the Supreme Court’s recent decisions. And feel free to share more in the comments.
