In a Supreme Court ruling released earlier today, Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote a minority opinion that looked more like an audition for a job at MSNBC, but it was enough to start a talking point on the Left, as stupid as it was.

That take is embarrassingly stupid, which is exactly why it's been embraced on the Left.
The Federalist's Sean Davis has a rundown of how the spin unfolded in real time, and it's a doozy:

DEMOCRATS: Roger that. So what you’re saying is: we are officially allowed to eliminate Trump and the Supreme Court as long as we, like, say it’s official and stuff?
