Trump’s Supreme Court pick, Judge Kavanaugh, is a threat to the Affordable Care Act and a threat to women’s health.
Now, we know Kavanaugh is a threat to our system of checks and balances. Kavanaugh believes the president is above the law – especially dangerous considering President Trump believes the same.
