Let's de-politicize the Court by declaring 66% of members to be strictly partisan. Also this only matters because we politicized the Court. Also this is a huge problem, even though the vast majority of cases are decided by a healthy majority.


And it reinforces the two party system.

This may be the stupidest idea I read today.

Wish we could get rid of political judges and replace them all with originalists.

The written word of a document means what it says and most importantly means what it said in light of the times it was written and voted on.

Sure times have changed but the meaning of the constitution has not.

Liberal judges do us all and themselves a disservice when they interpret the constitution as a living document.

The constitution has 2 provisions for updating with the times.

Amendment process and an Article V convention of the states!

So there would be 12 dem justices, 12 rep justices, and 1 justice spot everyone would fight over...and that would control everything.

What is his end game here? A cabinet position? Ambassador to some nice little Caribbean country? He has to know he is not going to win, but keeps stumbling onward.

The only problem with either of these is that he will get appointed to nothing when Trump wins again. Maybe he is playing the long game, hoping for a nice beach job when/if the Dems ever win again. They have yet to find an electable candidate.

He does realize that it is democratic leaning justices that have actually politicized the Supreme Court right?

We have to make sure that all the protected classes are covered, so we will need to make sure that all the religions, genders, ages, and sexual preferences are appropriately represented as well.

a do over only when you are down some leftists.

the apolitical ones won't be apolitical. the leftist supremes will pick a leftist the so called republican supremes will pick lukewarm moderates.

So the court will lean leftist again with fuzzy logic.
