Packing the court or impeaching justices is temporarily if the other side can just come back and do it to you.  The dems need to just take the gloves off and use the “conservative “ courts to make lasting change.

Don’t care about gerrymandering?  Ok, gerrymander the shit out of everything and don’t be subtle.  Make the court rule it unconstitutional.

Don't want to take up reasonable gun restrictions?  Ok, make it legal to enter any government building including the Sup. Court with any gun you want.  Oh now they want restrictions.

Don’t care about emoluments or bribery of public officials?  Ok, pass a law to make it legal then abuse the shit out of it.  Oh, now it’s unconstitutional.

Don’t care about voter suppression?  Ok, pass laws to supress the shit out of old white people. Oh, now it’s unconstitutional.

 

I know you're joking but regarding the last point, if we have a minimum age for voting we sure as hell need a maximum age as well

I know that you have previously expressed an affinity for the young asians that look like underdeveloped teens, but that is not exactly the type of ageism that I am talking about.

Thank you for proving my point.  Bigotry against age-gap relationships is a separate issue as I stated before.

(Honestly, I think those 3 are distinct, but I haven't chased all the crumbs.)

It's also clear that he doesn't give a whit about precedent and will vote to overturn Roe.

A vote to confirm Kavanaugh is a vote to overturn Roe.

Collins and Murkowski should think about that.

It only takes two to kill this nomination.

I thought the argument was that the R's would never actually overturn RvW because it's too valuable as a political carrot for votes/base. It's actually worth more as the bogeyman than as an ideological win, right?

That's one argument. I don't buy it. Why risk it? If Roe is overturned, women will die in states that outlaw abortion.

Let’s say Kavanaugh doesn’t get confirmed, what is the play for the Republicans for the midterms?

Only Republicans can keep him from getting confirmed.

I haven't seen this, so forgive me if it's old news.  Apparently Mr. Kavanaugh is an old-fashioned Hillary-hating Vince Foster Was Murdered conspiracy theorist:

Yeah, yeah but it’s always good to contingency plan.

These Kavanaugh hearing are a dumpster fire and may have some influence on public opinion.

From what I can glean, those are going to need beefing up before they form a basis for criminal prosecution or even impeachment/conviction by a Democrat congress, or pressure from other justices to resign for the sake of the integrity of the court.  They clearly aren't going to affect the confirmation without serious beefing up, or even then.

At the current rate of change in political discourse, the only problem those would present is that I'm not a big enough asshole online.

Not having a legal degree would seem to be a bigger issue.

I think he will get confirmed, but if he doesn't, I don't think he'll be the top issue in the midterms.

And if he's not confirmed, we'll see an even more unhinged Trump, which will help the Democrats.  You know he's probably seething in rage at Booker.

And Fox News will run this photo of Booker in all of their stories.

You assume all Dems will vote against but you could see the senators from West Virginia, Indiana and south dokota vote to confirm like they did for Goursich.

Are you seriously going to argue that outlawing abortion wouldnt lead to a decrease in deaths? Sure some extremely small percentage of women might permanently damage their vaginas or worse, but the amount of childrens who's lives will be saved will dwarf that number in comparison.

You can't die if you aren't born.

Sure, they have direct control over the child's life, but that doesn't mean it is not murder. Anyone can murder someone, but being able to do something doesn't mean you aren't taking the life of a child. 

If you outlaw abortions, only outlaws will have abortions.

I should clarify my point. He is bemoaning the death of murderers when there will be innumerable lives of children saved. His point was both shortsighted and morally bankrupt.
