re: #40 Targetpractice

Let’s be honest, if they faced any pressure at all, it was in the form of having their fee-fees hurt by being called out in the press. Every time a scenario like tonight was suggested, being forced to stand by their bullshit by having their “No” vote recorded, the immediate response was screaming fits about how they’d leave the party if made to feel too uncomfortable and then “ZOMG, WE’LL NOT BE ABLE TO SEAT ANY MORE JUDGES!!!”

And this is why we are in the mess we are in today — Democrats have never made the Supreme Court nor judges in general a priority in voting. If we had, we might not be facing the voting catastrophe in 2022 because the VRA would still be in effect, Citizens United would not be the law of the land, and Roe v Wade would not be on life support.
