It's probably got big old fucking compensation balls on the back. I'm a pathetic snowflake that's triggered by a bit of paint on the road but look at how big the balls are on my transexual pickup truck!

I don't think so. They don't have a binding code of conduct so they can't be prosecuted for corruption.

Good one.

Biden could have expanded the Supreme Court but he couldn't have purged it. It takes a 3/4 vote in the Senate to impeach a Supreme Court Justice.

So you're supporting Trump and the fascists? They can clearly win.

It will be VERY difficult to fix the Supreme Court without burning it to the ground. Trump appointed young, right wing extremists who will likely serve for 40 or 50 years. If one or more of the old conservatives retired over the next few months he will do the same thing again, likely someone who is even worse. Impeaching a Supreme Court Justice requires a 2/3 majority vote in the Senate which is stacked to favour the Republicans by the ridiculous electoral college. The chances of reforming the Supreme Court in the next lifetime are approaching zero.

Reform, true reform, will involve fixing the Supreme Court, elections, and education but also regulation, banking, and wealth inequality. The Republicans have for years obstructed when the Democrats were in power and lied and cheated and stretched the law while they were in power. It's a one way valve. The democrats can't do anything because of Republican obstructionism and they don't seem to be able to stop the back sliding when they are in opposition.

I would love to see a government made up of AOCs, and Kat Abughazalehs, Zohran Mamdanis, and Jasmine Crocketts but even if you end up with a government of those people the Republicans who are left and the Republican governors will obstruct change for a generation at least.

In order to effect real change you would need at least 3/4 of the states to be solidly in Democratic hands with 2/3 of Congress in Democratic hands.

Completely agree.

Let’s be clear, I am not going to blame a large portion of the population for being lied to.

I'm not blaming them for being lied to. I'm blaming them for not doing the absolute minimum critical thinking to realize that they are being lied to. We've all heard the lies. Tens of millions of people listened to those lies, thought about them critically, and came to the conculsion that they were weapons grade bullshit.

You don't think that the red hats are seeting with resentment at being made to feel stupid by the "intellectual elites"? Why do they complain about the "intellectual elites" then? Why do they complain about the "woke" or the "progressive"? They are seething with resentment about being told that their intolerant, backwards, racist beliefs are bad. That's why they love the cruelty. They love Trump because he's spiteful and cruel. I watched a video where Jennie Gage, a former Mormon, white supremacist, Trumper said, "I loved Trump because he was mean."
