re: #12 Charles Johnson

Not gonna lie - I’m seriously depressed about the future of the US today. If Trump gets to appoint another right wing justice, and he probably will, we are simply fucked. For a long, long time. There’s not going to be any quick fix for this.

Sure, stay strong. Keep fighting. Et cetera. I’m not giving up. But the tiny flame of hope is in danger of flickering out.

nah. we’ll pack the court. seriously. there is absolutely no reason we can’t have 11 justices on the court. the other issue will be that IF Trump is both impeached and removed, his picks will be politely and quietly asked to resign. It would be intolerable for it to turn out that the Manchurian Candidate gets two lifetime picks to control 1/3 of the checks and balances.
