(34,285 posts)1. Can we assume 8th is now dominated by trumpers?
I bet that is the case.
I looked it up, yep.
The law no longer matters in America, sadly.

(34,285 posts)7. Tremendous criticism of what they are doing and how by legal experts.
Our courts are a joke now.

OK a little perspective is in order. 8th circuit did put student loan forgiveness program on hold but only for a few days while the parties get their arguments on the merits in. So gov has until Monday and states until Tuesday to reply. Then court will rule on whether to enjoin.
