Thank you for having the stamina after such a day/week to write so measured and historically-grounded an analysis. Your historian’s detachment coupled with gimlet critiques sustain us during times that challenge, anger, and dismay.

Such Originalist hypocrisy concerned about state's rights and the will of voters in each state. Barf! Where was that concern in Bush v Gore when it stepped in to stop vote counting in Florida to give the Presidency to W Bush on grounds that the use of different standards of vote counting in different Florida counties violated the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution? So much for deference to states. More bad stuff to come from SCOTUS, guaranteed. BUT if you don't vote from now on, you can not complain. If everyone voted, these clowns would be run out of town.
