ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES

[Irish]

Incorrect. Lemme guess, you aren't the oldest or the brightest in your family. Am I close? How much Irish are you? I'm 20%....but that part routinely dominates the 60% English.

So blackasshole was being sarcastic. I doubt it.

I'm aware that is what "packing the court" means. But I never heard Biden or any Democrats seriously advocate packing the court. Like "lock her up" some threatened packing the court as retaliation for Trump's SC appointments.

Those seeking press or wanting to attack Trump or be good Democrats floated the idea, but I did not hear Biden or Harris suggest it and Biden avoided answering direct questions about it.

"The once-remote idea of adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent is prompting growing discussion within the Democratic Party, creating a new frontier for presidential candidates looking to display their liberal credentials.

Former attorney general Eric H. Holder Jr., who recently decided against running for president, became the latest figure to embrace an expansion of the nine-member court in recent talks at Yale Law School and Columbia University."

As pointed out elsewhere, the Republican Senate can block such a move. However, if circumstances permit, do you think the Democrats would go for it or not? I say they'd do it, which is something I disagree with them doing.

Disagreed. Me too.

That's what "packing the court" means; adding enough justices so Biden can flip SCOTUS to a liberal majority.

Agreed which is why I'm concerned. The Republicans have fucked up so badly, they're handing the government over to the Democrats. At the moment, I'm not willing to bet which direction 2022 will go. Let's hope the Republicans can sway enough Independents with logic and reason, not push them away with Trumpian bullshit.

"Trumpian Bullshit" is exactly the reason Republicans increased their seat in the House and did not lose a single incumbent member of the House. Democrat and Pelosi Bullshit is what caused them to lose 12 seats in the house and will likely cause them to lose the Senate.

Disagreed. There are other factors involved than the causative factors you've mentioned.

"61%. That’s the percentage of Democrats who favor or strongly favor increasing the number of Supreme Court justices, according to a Marquette University poll conducted in September shortly before Ginsburg’s death, as compared with only 41% of Independents and 34% of Republicans." https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisond...h=7cdf60506ef0

A lot of the Democrats that promised to be bipartisan and work with Trump only to vote for impeachment lost their seats.

You're about to find out dumbass. Yep, 2022 will lead to a Republican legislature. 2024, another Republican in the White House.

The last election, 15 additional seats in the House and two State legislatures turned red. You dumbasses don't have the slightest clue which is why you make great constituents for the Fascistic Party of the Jackass. ]

Right, this coming from the guy who predicted Trump in a landslide, was even taking wagers on it he was so confident Trump had a walk in the park

It is when you cheat.

Two words .. Merritt Garland.

Two words..........WRONG name. His name is Merrick, not Merritt...LOL. Never accuse someone else of being stupid when you dont even know the correct name of someone you are talking about. It makes you look,...well,....stupid.

Maybe next we can talk with authority about Jubal Bidann and Bill Klinton.

No doubt the republicans would do it in a similar circumstance, but I doubt that Weak in the knees democrats would,

How stupid. I slightly misspelled his name and your dumb ass claims that as some kind of victory.

stupid.

Which goes to the core of the problem: Too little trust and respect between parties.
