    They don’t. I made this comment in another thread.

    I find this part pretty telling:

    …63%, supported enacting an 18-year term limit for Supreme Court justices – who enjoy lifetime appointments – with a bare 51% of Republicans in favor along with 61% of independents and a whopping 83% of Democrats.

    But then:

    Some 58% of Republicans considered Biden’s long-shot proposal to impose term limits and enact a binding code of conduct on the high court a “major threat to democracy,” compared with 26% of independents and just 10% of Democrats.

    So basically most Republicans are like “yeah we need term limits… Wait, Biden wants term limits? Fuck that!”

      How I long for the day when a Republican accidentally holds a compassionate, justice-loving, non-hypocritical, decent position on something.
