Democrats Brace for War over Supreme Court

The Democrats are telegraphing they will go scorched earth to fight Barrett, and Senator Chuck Schumer will appeal to President Trump to prevent her nomination.

There are a few reasons why Barrett generates so much fear and hatred among Democrats.

For Democrats, these Supreme Court wars boil down to abortion, the issue that most excites their perverse passion.

Democrats will argue that, as a believing Catholic, Barrett is somehow not qualified to be on the Supreme Court, that real believing Christians, vice the Nancy Pelosi variety, are biased and can't interpret the Constitution.

As John Adams presciently observed, "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." But most people of faith recoil in horror at abortion, so Democrats are highly suspicious of faith-abiding Americans.

While predicting presidential Supreme Court nominations is often a fool's game, I hope President Trump does nominate Barrett if given the opportunity, both because she would be a superb judge and because it would serve as the kind of illustrative moment this president is so gifted at creating.

We are fast approaching the moment in history where some Supreme Court justices and their families will need as much protection as what is afforded the president.
