a
"more aggressive and ideologically assertive legal theory?"

#CommonGoodConstitutionalism has emerged as a leading dominant legal theory on the right.

“the central aim of the constitutional order is to promote good rule, not to ‘protect liberty’ as an end in itself”.
pay attention to who get to "promote" the "good rule". When the #CorporateNews is distracting us with #tRump and his band of clowns, this is what we are being distracted from.

'Common good constitutionalism' makes the originalism doctrine used by the right-wing Supremes look warm and cuddly. It's no less than a legal framework for establishing dictatorial government in the US in order to protect the power of wealthy white men. It owes much to kthe corporatist strand of fascism practiced in Italy by Mussolini and in Spain by Franco.
