Thank you for your opinion. I appreciate your thoughts.
1. If you'd like to expound on how the legal profession is in the midst of an ethical crisis, I'd listen, but I respect your opinion that you leave it at "yes".
2. I think we can agree politicians have been held accountable in the past. Senator Bob Menendez was sentenced to 11 years in prison within the last few months. So, there is still some accountable somewhere. I would agree Trump is not in prison. I believe he was convicted of 34 felonies and found liable civilly due to the legal system. I can't comment on the judicially sanctioned corruption without some specific identification. I'm not saying it doesn't exist, but if we're going to say those things it'd be good to know exactly what we're talking about.
3. I would tend to agree. At any given time 5 justices can hold opinions based on their political beliefs, but can justify it interpreting laws. A large percentage of lawyers and the public may not agree. And, it can swing back the other way when the numbers on the Court change. Do we want to throw Justices off the Supreme Court when we disagree, but not let "the other side" throw off Justices off when they disagree? Should Justices be voted on for retention?
