MAGA attacks 'traitor' Amy Coney Barrett for voting against razor wire: 'What a disgrace' [1]

['Carla Sinclair']

Date: 2024-01-23  

In MAGAland, when the U.S. King ramrods three extreme-right justices into the Supreme Court, said justices better stick to MAGA practices. And when they don't, beware — the MAGA mob will come after them. Which is what Donald Trump's henchfolk are doing to Justice Amy Coney Barrett, the Trump-picked extremist who voted yesterday along with Democrats (and Chief Justice John Roberts) to rip down Gov. Greg Abbott's ghastly razor wire at the Texas border.

"Amy Coney Barrett sold us out. So much for states rights," Texas radio host Kenny Webster complained on X, as reported by Raw Story.

"The next busload of illegals Greg Abbott sends north should go right to Amy Coney Barrett's front door," said Gerry Callahan, another angry radio host on X, this one based in Boston. "The one after that too. What a disgrace."

Some Trumpers are blaming Barrett's decision, which was part of the 5-4 vote yesterday, on the fact that she's a woman and a mom.

"Told you. Laws can't compare to a female judge's feelings. It's illegal to enforce immigration law because borders make Amy Coney Barrett feel sad," self-described nationalist James Kirkpatrick said on X, while Xitter Aristophanes griped, "Once again Amy Coney Barrett was a huge mistake and we all kinda knew this when we saw she had two adopted foreign children."

No matter that Barrett is "the product of a Christian legal movement" who has consistently toed the MAGA party line, including her vote to overturn Roe vs. Wade. In yesterday's ruling, she showed disloyalty to Dictator Trump by voting with the "others" to remove dangerous razor wire — not to be confused with Abbott's barbaric chainsaw buoys — along the southern border, and for that she must now pay the consequences.
