    I don't see that happening. I see that in the exact same light as the predictions of America breaking into violence following the election. Sure, a few wackos may go off the deep end. They will be dealt with by the authorities and be called nutjobs by talking heads, end of story, nation goes on, news cycle moves on to the next story.

    Disagreed. People react, but most react proportionately.

    RWNJs have been predicting Civil War ever since Obama was elected. Didn't happen, of course, but those idiots don't understand the dynamics at work. The Sixties were a lot more violent and wider spread than anything the USA has had in this century. Anything.

    That's not to say government actions couldn't result in as large a group of Americans erupting into open dissent rivaling the 1960s or greater.

    An old truism is "the most dangerous man in the world is a man with nothing to lose." This is the logic behind all revolutions including suicide bombers. Push people hard enough and they'll push back. This is a natural human reaction. The key for government assholes is to push but not so hard they all end up hanging by their heels from the palace gates.
    God bless America and those who defend our Constitution.

    The lesson?

    Her death has galvanized the left. There will be even larger voter turnout for Biden now.
    It's a flash in the pan. Nothing will save your senile candidate.

    Trump kicks ass just like he did in 2016.

    Ramming this confirmation through while people are heading to the polls is a bad strategy that will cost a lot more than just the WH and Senate.

    The trickle-down effect will be felt at the state and local level.

    Jesus, no wonder nothing happened. I hate to strain your brain, dude, but do the math. Compare the population of the 60s to the 20s then give me a percentage. I'm guessing it was less than 25%.

    Le sigh: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...States_by_size

    The largest 60's protest was the End the Vietnam War protest, which was 500,000 people.

    BLM had about 26,000,000 people, according to the links in Wiki.

    Even the Women's March in 2017 had more people than the largest protest of the 60's.

    Old white people like to pretend that they were protesting during the 60's, but they weren't. They considered MLK a radical socialist.

How do you get any kind of change from Trump exercising his constitutional duty to nominate a SCOTUS justice(and keep in mind, there are I believe, 29 cases of precedence for this exact situation)? And what would be wrong with 9 textualists on the court anyway? Nine people, no left, no right, no "interpretation" of the Constitution. Just point to the appropriate article and say "next case, let's move it along". This would be great for the jackasses too. Imagine having to draft legislation that would be constitutionally vetted so it wouldn't have to go to the SCOTUS in the first place! People would start thinking you guys might be capable of higher order thought!
