(27,468 posts)40. Roger Taney* will NEVER escape his obituary.....
*Roger Taney, Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court, wrote the terrible Dred Scott decision that helped precipitate the Civil War. He will always be known for that, regardless of anything else good that he might have done.
Similarly, Addison Mitchell McConnell will always be remembered for two things: 1) stealing two Supreme Court appointments from Democrats, and 2) preventing Pres. Obama from bringing out Donald tRump's connections to Putin.
And tRump? He will be remembered for SO MANY evil acts that nobody will be able to remember them all. (I hope someday, somebody will publish an "Encyclopedia of tRump" describing them all in detail.)
