This is what I fear most for the United States–the eroding of democratic values and the rule of law. The courts have upheld many of Trump’s executive orders. However, Trump has an agenda to undermine the judiciary and the rule of law. He is filling judge vacancies at a record pace with people who will help him fulfill his agenda. We’re only a year in to his presidency and already the erosion of democratic values and rule of law is underway. I worry about how much worse it can and will get in the next three years.
