    In fact it’s one of the other major reasons why we need to vote democrat. RvW was overturned because SCOTUS is stacked with republicans. You want to prevent shit like that happening again, you need to vote so we can rebalance the courts.

      The democrats have openly refused to pack the courts. How are they supposed to campaign if they don’t have Republicans to threaten us with?

          They had two years of majority in both houses under Biden where they could have added justices to the bench.

            yeah obviously moderate dems and DINOs like Manchin are never going to go for that. If that’s your bar for voting for democrats you’re being completely unrealistic.

              Realistically, we’re going to have to demand the impossible if we want to solve climate change and half a dozen other major existential issues.

                and how do you intend to “demand” that? if you mean withholding your vote until they cater to your specific view of the way things should be done you’re going to be waiting forever. and in the meantime republicans will keep fucking things up even worse.
