Maybe the repukes would be having it. lol BWdem4life May 2024 #2
If we win elections, the issue is moot Kaleva May 2024 #3
Easier said than done, obviously. Sure, it would be great if we won every election BWdem4life May 2024 #4

Would we be having it if McConnell hadn't stolen a seat from Obama and then turned around and pushed through a second one at the end of tRump's reign in a complete about-face from his rationale for stealing the first seat? Probably not. But he did.

If we lose, we want to change the makeup of SCOTUS and impose age limits or term limits.

But if elections and Supreme Court seats continue to be stolen, it would be nice if one single botched (and probably stolen) election did not result in 3 lifetime corrupt judges. And in reality, the stolen 2000 election added two more.

5 of the 6 conservative SC judges are illegitimate (and Thomas should be impeached) but we're stuck with them for life. Enough is enough.

Where is your evidence?

The hard left and hard right are the same on this. Elections they won are legit while elections they lost were stolen. And neither side can produce legitimate evidence to back up their claims regarding stolen elections
