    Democrats would have never approved why Trump nominee if the rules hadn't changed. They did their best to stop kavanaugh lying about nonsense.

    Obama nominated two justices that are sitting in the supreme court. So no but like they did to Obama.

    Democrats wanted to control the supreme Court because it's the only way they get their nonsense past

    by denying Obama his pick, saying on election year the people should decide
    by changing the rules to 50
    by giving Trump his pick on election year, saying on election year Trump should decide

    Appointment is done by Congress not the president.

    This isn't a violation of the rules, it's following them.

    not sure your point, Republican in congress cheated

    so dems should add seats and steal back the court

    if the rules allow it, nothing wrong with doing it per the right

    It's funny that's only comes up when Democrats lose. But if they want to to further destroy any chances of holding the house in it I support it. Let's not forget there's a such thing as jurisdictions stripping.

    Democrats don't get to run the country like it's their own little dictatorship.

    No.

    Do not expect the majority of Americans to surrender to the retrogression in personal liberty that is aberrant among advanced democracies but consistent with the likes of Iraq, Nicaragua, and El Salvador.

    The authoritarian statists will struggle to enforce the draconian imposition of the State into a citizen's privacy. The will of the People shall continue to assert itself.

    dems had to have 60 votes, so they were more moderate, repubs changed the rules

    dems need to change the rules on the number of seated judges and seat a few more

    lmao....Biden has spent the bulk of his political career opposed to Roe v Wade. He's the biggest abortion flip flopper on record. In 2020, he changed his view on abortion overnight (Hyde Amendment) again. What a clown!

    However you need to spin it, the precipitous loss of respect for the Court recently is an index of the American public's sentiment in the matter. Whenever government institutions lose respect, democracy is weakened.

    oh dear, you haz a sad. The GOP is no different than the dems when it comes to gaming the system. The dems blocked two eminently qualified jurists from the court of appeals-even though they have the votes in the senate to be seated. So the butt hurt bellyaching about the GOP is hypocritical/ I am glad turtle man (no relation) kept leftist Garland off the court. The guy is proving his actual ability in office is much weaker than his resume.

    Why do you need to spout blatant untruths?

    Please cite wherever I advocated banning firearms?
