Expand Court

[foszoe]

I want a constitutional country not the lie, cheat, and crimes country the democrats are pursuing...

Reminds me the love it or leave it crowd.

In respectful accordance with forum rules, I will refrain from fully delivering my opinion.

Why the change of heart?

 

[churchmouse]

Yup. 80 million people supposedly voted for this ****.

And a few of them are members inn here for Gods sake.

 

[Tombs]

Well, how about this "compromise"?
Since the Dems expanded the Court last time, we expand it, but Trump picks the next 4.
And then we leave it alone for 50 years, since that seems to be the precedent.

No compromise is possible anymore, it's clearly scorched earth policy from here on out, otherwise this wouldn't even be a consideration in the mind of the most radical of the dems.

Abolishing the filibuster and this are the first shots of a civil war.

We were well beyond even being able to have a discussion even 4 years ago, this is the natural next step, which carries consequences.

 

[Tombs]

80 million... still laugh every time I hear that as if anyone actually believes it.

 

[Ingomike]

You will have chance to redress those consequences. People are just running around like their hair is on fire because they take elections personally.

Not if the vote is not secured. We know it was stolen and if that is not fixed there can be no redress. Which is why those you voted for are taking steps to lock in the vote cheating...

Anyways, back to an expanded court. I used to not agree with it. The Merrick Garland fiasco changed my opinion. If you cheered the "dirty (but technically legal) tricks" that was involved with that, then you'll understand why the other side is willing to do the same thing.

Just flat out falsehoods!

What’s false?

Me too. It is a solid lie.

Just like “11 million” illegal immigrants. They’ve been using that number for years.

I would be surprised if that even was a large enough number to account for all the illegals in one state alone.
Much less, nationally.

 

[Twangbanger]

Going nowhere.

Ruth Ginsburg is pushing up daisies. Amy Coney Barrett isn't. No amount of posturing will change that.

SCOTUS rules the expansion "Unconstitutional".
Problem solved.

Could SCOTUS just avoid swearing in any of the Bonus judges? Keep them in the lobby and never officially sworn in as justices.

Nothing gonna grow above that wretched corpse

No, because I don’t think anything will happen. Everyone else seems to think we’re on the brink of collapse. We’re not. Not even close. I’ve listened to family who’ve lived through a lot worse. And this is small potatoes

Confirms what I already knew about leftists: their either evil, ignorant, or both. You’re not overtly evil, but the ignorant part...

Any moderate knowledge of history shows exactly where the philosophies of the left lead, and you seem happily unaware of that.

Of course if you do in fact know history and you do in fact know where the philosophies of the left always lead, and you’re still willfully pushing the needle that direction, then I’ll have to re-think my position on you not being evil.

Are you sure? Isn't that up to legislative branch?

You're giving far too much credit, this forum has absolutely informed him of every single piece of biden's policy. The excuse of ignorance expired a very long time ago.

Where does it say that the L branch can do that?
Also, where does it say the SCOTUS has to justify?
