For years, the Left has imposed unpopular policies on the American public not through the legislative process but with progressive judges who chose to make law rather than just interpret it.

Now the tide is turning because President Donald Trump is appointing federal judges – including the U.S. Supreme Court – who take a literal view of the Constitution.

This is driving the liberals batty.

There’s no better example than U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-New York, who threatened Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh during a public rally to preserve legalized abortion.

At a rally on March 4, Schumer said the two justices “won’t know what hit you” if they rule in favor of abortion restrictions in a case the Supreme Court was about to hear involving a challenge to the legality of a Louisiana law that could make abortions more difficult to obtain.

“I want to tell you Gorsuch, I want to tell you Kavanaugh – you have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price,” Schumer said.

It is unheard of for someone as highly ranked in the Senate as Schumer to make such a clear-cut threat to the safety of Supreme Court justices.

“I’m from Brooklyn. We speak in strong language. I shouldn’t have used the words I did,” Schumer said in sort of an apology.

There are calls for Schumer to resign or at least be censored by the Senate. He got a public rebuke from Chief Justice John Roberts and criticism from President Trump.

Schumer is like a spoiled brat. If he doesn’t get his way, he takes the low road.

This is who is leading the national Democrat Party.
