It’s ok, Centinel. The bad man is leaving now. You don’t have to be scared anymore.

That would not only be more fascist than anything trump has done, it would be political suicide.

It polls absolutely horribly.

I thought Trump was already packing the courts?

ETA: Upvoting your own post. That's fricking pathetic.

If dems take the senate, it would be by the skin of their teeth. 51-49 or 52-48

good luck passing any bold legislation when you have joe manchin, sinema, etc rejecting the bold stuff.

You’re not wrong about this. However, after what happened to Garland and then how the Republicans acted hypocritically with Coney Barrett.... Something has to be done.

And most of the country agrees with that. Not necessarily on how it’s accomplished (through packing the courts), but they want a balanced Supreme Court.

I actually want that too. I do t want us extreme in one direction or the other.

That’s a good point. We’re far more likely to have someone open minded enough to jump ship, as opposed to current Republicans.

There was nothing hypocritical about it. Repubs had the senate both times.

You don't think the dems would have done the exact same thing?

I didn’t upvote my own post. Which one?

That’s kind of pathetic that it triggered you that much to think that someone else could like my post.

It was completely hypocritical. If we can’t agree on that, we can’t really debate the issue.

Which one? If there’s more than one upvote, umm... it’s something called math.

I disagree here. The idea was that because the senate and the presidency were opposite parties, they should wait until the next election.

This time around, it was same party so they went ahead and did it.

Even if garland was given a hearing and a vote, he wouldn't have been confirmed.

Except history shows they did do the exact same thing. Multiple times.

What does it matter? Biden is going to pack the courts. Again, I think it’s for the greater good.
