Gonna be hilarious when Trump gets his fourth Supreme Court justice because another liberal refused to retire when a Democrat was president.
And it’ll be Bernie Sanders’ and his tankie Palestinian supporters’ fault

Do wonder what excuse mitch would use this time to not appointment a replacement before the election
Dems still control the Senate, so McConnell can’t do anything. Sinema could do something though.
Dems controlled the Senate for a while last time too. They were too afraid to use a simple majority to pass through any of their nominations though. 60 votes were required to add someone to the supreme Court, dems had a simple majority and were unwilling to lower because “then the Republicans would use it.”
Lot of good that did
They actually did remove the filibuster for lower court nominations. Which gave the Republicans easy justification to remove it for Kavanaugh a few years later.
So they essentially handed the Republicans that power without ever using it themselves. Strategic geniuses.
But now that it’s gone, they are shooting themselves in the foot - again - by not having Sotomayor (and Kagan really) retire.
Or Manchin, fuck could see Fetterman too if they aren’t pro Israel enough
Fetterman will be the new rotating villain after Manchin retires
It is 2013. A girlboss refuses to retire from the supreme court and her seat will be filled by the opposition when she dies after the next election.
It is 2023. A girlboss refuses to retire from the supreme court and her seat will be filled by the opposition when she dies after the next election.
Translation: We need the threat of her death in office to blackmail voters with.
Translation: We need
the threat of her death in office to blackmail voters withat least one more 40-year old Federalist Society Judge to dominate the judicial branch for the next generation, just in case Thomas kicks it and Roberts pulls a Souter.
Time is a flat circle and we’re all trapped by it.
There has to be some kind of “god” like being fucking with us at this point
RETVRN to tradition (trickster gods)
:monke-king-shining:
Sotomayakanda does roll off the tongue
Come on this is way too on the nose. They’re trolling us.
Oh that would be so funny if they did it again
simply win every election until 2054 so the dems will get a one vote margin on the supreme court, then real change can start!
JUST WIN, BABY!
Lol. Lmao.
Would be nice if they actually focused on winning elections, they seem to be trying their hardest to do the opposite at this point.
first as a farce, and then as another farce
If you’re the Democrats, you win some and you lose some and you lose some more and you lose some more…
Time for our rulers to roll the dice on our cabal of boring wizards again! Hope it doesn’t result in misery for millions.
