Incredibly well argued and delightfully put together. We'll have to see how it plays out. There has been lots of histrionics about this ruling and whether it means Trump can fire political opponents out of a canon into a wall etc, but the reality is, these things need testing and the Supreme Court needs to show its reasoning. Trump is breaking new ground all the time, and the decisions being made here (and articulated by you very well) will form part of the next 200 years of the US experiment... if it lasts that long. Great article, 13 minutes well spent, technically 26 because I read it twice. :o)
