So, here's the way out of these judicial nominee landmines:
1. Repeal the filibuster. It is, after all, the Constitutional Option
2. Confirm Gorusch [Done!]
3. Undo the Marbury v. Madison legacy of judicial review
4. Repeal the 17th Amendment, and give back the U.S. Senate to the states, and restore the power of state legislatures to elect U.S. Senators. [I've liked this idea for some time!]
Not easy, granted. But I think that Trump is ready to lead this iconoclastic agenda for the greater good of the country, and id 2018 turns out as I expect it to, the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives will step closer to stable supermajorities (with the few remaining common-sense Democrats) to fix these underlying problems.
