        I’m rooting for a reckoning. Where each of them gets to explain their actions on trial before being the last victims of the concentration camps they’re building.

        I’m rooting for that, but after the end of the trump admin. I really hate that Trump is likely getting 2 more SC justices.

          Yeah, RBG really screwed the pooch when she refused to step down after Obama started his second term. He asked at the beginning of his second term, so he would have plenty of time to get a new justice appointed. But she wanted to have the distinction of serving under the first female president, so she refused to step down. And instead, Hillary lost, we got Trump’s first term, then RBG fucking kicked it.

          It’s honestly a gigantic stain on her legacy, because her pride had her shitting in the pool right before she got out.

          If we don’t take these nazis out by the roots they’ll have all 9 soon enough. The liberal justices aren’t that young and the conservatives keep on doing whatever they feel in the moment logic be damned. Sure they’re against this right now but they also gave him sweeping immunity. I don’t trust any of the conservatives to stand against the emperor they’ve created for any real length of time.

          So many different things need to happen for the country to get somewhere half decent much less actually good. The modern Republicans and “moderate” democrats are symptomatic of much greater issues.
