Cooke 2,041 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 If Biden adds more supreme court justices in his favor, what's to stop the next Republican president from doing the same thing in 4/8 years? It seems like a short sighted plan to me. Link to post Share on other sites

lostfool 680 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Well I don't know. But as a citizen of the United states that is not a retard like conservatives there is no law on the books that mandates a number. There could be 5, there could be 9, there could be 12 etc. It will not happen and even if Biden wanted to, the majority of the senate would have to approve it and I believe it would have to be a super majority.

Delita 698 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 So about that court packing. The projection from this party is fucking embarrassing.

You seem to think you're some down the middle independent thinker, and like I've been saying since the start of the year when I returned, you seem to just repeat alt-right rhetoric exclusively and most of the sources you cite are either right leaning to full alt-right material.

jehurey 3,299 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 (edited) First response nails it. And to answer Cooke's question, Republicans need to have control of the Senate and the Presidency. If Democrats get 50 Senators Plus Kamala Harris as the tie-breaker, they set up rules to eliminate the filibuster. And then they eliminate the Electoral College, and make the Presidential Election based on popular vote. Boom, there you go. Republicans could take back control of the Senate, but they would never get the presidency for the forseeable future because they're not going to win the popular vote for the forseeable future, unless they can find new 70 year-old Boomers to vote.

LMFAO take that shit back to high school, son. Group think. Let me be clear. I am not s republican, I am not alt right. I'm not even close to right wing. For the most part we would agree on major issues like universal health care, drug legalization, public education, gun control etc etc. Where we split is on the sjw/antifa stuff. I find it to be detrimental long term to progressivism while you think its important, and that's perfectly ok. Link to post Share on other sites

Right-wing media talks about Hunter Biden.................you talk about Hunter Biden AND NOTHING ELSE RIght-wing media talks about Burisma.................you talk about Burisma. Right-wing media talks about Biden supposedly being slow..............you talk about Biden supposedly being slow The mere fact that you mention Antifa, as if its a thing...........when there is repeated proof that there is no actual organizational Antifa, is proof that you DEFINITELY READ AND FOLLOW right-wing talking points.

Just because a right wing outlet says Biden has cognitive decline does not mean it's fake news. You need to wake up to your own delusions. I follow intellectual lefties, but you would call them alt right because they also agree wokeism is divisive and dangerous to society. Most of these people despise Trump. As do I. This does not make Biden good either. Think with both sides your brain sometimes Jehurey, it might help you. Link to post Share on other sites
