Trump Proposes Overruling Supreme Court by Creating Supremer Court

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—One day after it issued decisions on L.G.B.T.Q. rights and the Second Amendment that provoked his ire, Donald J. Trump said that he would overrule the Supreme Court by creating a “Supremer Court.”

“Right now, if the Supreme Court makes a bad decision, quite frankly, you’re screwed,” he said. “The Supremer Court fixes that.”

Trump said that his Supremer Court would be a “beautiful, perfect court” that would make the Supreme Court “look like exactly what it is—a sad bunch of losers.”

The tax case is the biggest one. Does the Supreme Court truly believe that the Executive Branch is above the law?

We shall see.

"We would like to appeal this ruling."
"On what grounds?"
"On the grounds that we lost the case!"
