they tried to use an illustration, korematsu, dred scott, those terrible decisions one of the republicans an illustration of a court order that you could morally rationalize opposing. but the bottom line is, you cannot take a subjective test on this issue. if you did, you'd have someone who might be a racist who says brown versus board of education integrating our schools. i don't believe in that. that's morally reprehensible to me, and i will not enforce that order in my administration of education. so you see, that's a slippery slope. so i think we've raised the threshold question for the department of justice appointments by this administration. and we better debate it out because it gets to the heart of our democracy. >> it does get to the heart of our democracy. it is the closest thing that we have to an existential question, i think, in terms of our republic, to see the wholesale destruction of the federal government, which i think they're trying to do, to see them appearing to ignore laws when it comes to doing what they're trying to do to the us government, is a bad thing as far
