Holy TRVKE
Midwits don't realize that the president's picks for SCOTUS used to be confirmed on site just because he picked them. The Executive Branch was supposed to be the suppressive action on a out-of-control Legislature, which was itself split into two chambers, one of which elected itself from the other body, because the government owed itself to who? The people. And the people are what? Mobs. It's anarchy, democracy, etc. etc. It's people leveling societal inequalities through violence.
There's a reason Patrick Henry, George Mason, and that Boston crackhead with the beer company wanted it explicitly stated outright what rights could never be touched - midwits know it as the Big Beautifil Bill of Rights, Madisonian Chads know that the first amendment could have been #3. Madison and the boys wrote the Constitution not as three equal branches, no sir, they wrote it so that the voice of the Commons was filtered through Congress, with the stopgap of the Senate, and that the Executive was the true powerhouse. Why do you think Adams was able to stack all the courts with his own party members on his way out the door? That Jefferson could just up and buy a third of North America from France or impose an embargo on exports? Why do you think Tommy J called Washington a monarchist and rage-quit his Cabinet position? Because the Founders over-corrected from 1688 and created a stronger elected monarchy that could wrangle the Legislature, aka Parliament.
That is, until Johnny M. came in off the top rope with a steel chair, yelled Bankai - Judicial Review" and used SCOTUS to stop Jefferson from lynching Burr after they both got caught in a scheme to start a war with Spain and he needed a patsy.
