If they are sane politicians who respects individual rights (among them 2nd amendment) Ok, so guns. I'm guessing the right to abortion isn't included in individual rights. So, which individual rights other than guns? However, since I live in Missouri, the state will handily go to Trump. Bigly. So what I do will merely submit a "protest" vote, or continue to calvin ball this and vote Trump to punish Democrats. So you mean that without the electoral college, your vote would matter, but with it, it really doesn't? Because. Fuck Democrats and the environment that led to the Kavanaugh embarrassments and the Convington Kids. So you think it's good when someone in a "he said she said" situation is put in the supreme court? That's bad Whemb. If you find yourself in such a situation you shouldn't go to the supreme court. Said by a dangerously naive advocate.... Is that your way to say "I don't like it when people know more than me about other countries"?

2011-2017: Congress is the place for oversight and it’s their Constitutional right and duty to act as a check against the other branches. The power of the purse is there because the President isn’t God and King.
2017-present: Fuck every asshole in congress that opposes the President. I will never vote for the party that dared to oppose him and hold hearings and investigations.

I just wish they'd get the impeachment thing started already, as that seems to be the only thing they're interested in.

So, which individual rights other than guns? The unborn has rights too. (it should anyway as it is a distinct person) When I know it's going for Trump, 100%... yeah, it doesn't matter what *I* do. My life shouldn't be destroyed on false accusations. No.

I wished the Democrat House now, like the Republican House during Obama years, used "DA POWAH OF DA PURSE" to claw back things that shouldn't have been delegated to the executive branch. Both parties are resistant to push that envelope.

Right to officially change you gender? When I know it's going for Trump, 100%... yeah, it doesn't matter what *I* do. And you like that. You think it's good. My life shouldn't be destroyed on false accusations. Is your life ruined if you don't make it to the supreme court? Because it looks like your life will be ruined then.

It is ruined if your entire life has been designed to get you “your” seat on the court “you” deserve.

You do understand the difference between Kavanaugh getting a hearing, and the GOP stubbornly refusing to hold one for Garland right?
