I think the thing that bothers me the most about some of the Court's rulings that I fear the most is an acceptance of a highly expansive view of executive power and a marginalization of legislative power. I think that's very dangerous for a country. I think legislatures are just far closer to the people. They're capable of compromise. (57:25–57:38)
