Biden and Democratic Norms – WSJ

Democrats have spent six years warning about the threat to democratic norms and institutions, and sometimes they’re even right—the Jan. 6, 2021 riot being Exhibit A. But they’d have more credibility if they stopped undermining democratic institutions when it suits their political purposes.

President Biden is a leading offender on that score these days, and he did it again last week by attacking the Supreme Court at a Democratic fundraiser. “I view this off-year election as one of the most important elections that I’ve been engaged in because a lot can change because the institutions have changed. The Supreme Court is more of an advocacy group these days than it is a, even-handed about it,” the President said at an event for Delaware Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester.
