    Well it’s a juxtaposition isn’t it? On one hand you have the dems delaying the confirmation using the same tactics trump did. On the other you have him coming into power and having the justice department drop the charges.

      And it’s the same Republicans who said Supreme Court nominations shouldn’t happen right before an election and also voted in nominations right before an election. They don’t give us shit about anything. Why would we go through a stunt when they wouldn’t think twice about how they are hypocritics. they know then are, they just don’t care.

        Why not? Give em hell. That’s what I say.

        Repubs think they are all so crass when they break the rules. They think they’ve outsmarted everyone and really pulled one over on us simpletons.

        I know, and you know this too, we are holding back. We have morals so we cant engage. The same faculties that gave us those immutable morals could be used for other purposes though.

        Good natured people, in my mind, are brilliant people. They do the hard thing because it’s the right thing. The second they don’t have to do the hard thing anymore because it’s no longer the right thing is like removing a handicap. Think of the most clever, most hard working, and determined people you know. If they don’t vote D I don’t believe you know any.

          what do you think the results will be?

          They will point to all the laws they ignored and say they apply. When you point out “hey you did the same thing” they will change the subject or ignore you comment. They know they are hypocrits and don’t care. They will do whatever it takes to win including cheat. So again I ask you what do you think will happen? I think the answer is nothing.

      It doesn’t matter because they will just spin it, ignore any relevance to their own actions, and repeat it enough that it becomes the narrative. This is the standard M.O.

        The people it matters to won’t be Republicans. It will be a signal to everyone one who has invested the last 8 years in them they won’t go down without a fight.
