Obama DID appoint a justice per his constitutional role.  The Senate did not confirm him.  Do the Justices that have been appointed by the Dems "apply the law" and not implement policies?  They vote a straight party line for dem supported causes.  The republs are the only ones to every break party ranks per your example of Roberts.  Your "logic" seems to run only one direction.  If Trump had suggested court packing to approves his policies as the dems are doing, he would have been vilified as a dictator who didn't respect the checks and balances of the judiciary.  But when the libs do it, it is hunky dory.

In other words, you are ok with the country being effectively run by SCOTUS... Got it.

BS.. the Republicans wouldn't even hold a hearing.

You didn't answer any of the substantive points.  Name one Justice that has been appointed by a Dem who has not voted the party line.  There isn't one.  They vote straight down the party line.  So if you are objecting to Supreme Court justices that are influenced by policies and politics apply it to them all and not just those appointed by republicans (who ironically do occasionally not vote a straight party line).  And if you are advocating "court packing," then why shouldn't Trump name additional justices before he leaves office etc?

There was nothing substantive in your opinion.

What do the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) and Epstein have in common?   Blackmail!  Interesting to see how this plays out.   This Hunter video was on his laptop and may have involved his niece Natalie - FBI says nothing of it.  I guess Hilary could have a private server at home, smash her devices and have her husband meet on a tarmack - why would this even make news?

Don't watch the link unless you want to see Hunter smoking crack and taking selfies of himself while he amuses himself with a girl. It has been somewhat censored.  Apparently it was released in an attempt to prevent the CCP from using it against the Biden's.

Donald Trump......the candidate who put the con into conservative.

For all of you who aren’t aware yet, maybe consider the Mussolini playbook for introducing authoritarianism. It likely won’t work this time because Trump is a moron. Be afraid however of the smarter Republicans, those who have yet to speak out at this attempt. They are the ones who would willingly give up democracy to retain power. There was always a reasonable support base for a populist leader with appeal to the anti intellectual, racist, nationalist groups. The problem for them is getting enough votes to obtain power from a fair election. The answer is to claim it was rigged. Unfortunately there are too many states this time to turn. The question now is not if but when. 2024?

Here's an excellent chart that shows how Cuomo got COVID-19 under control in New York after Benedict-Donald refused to do his job and save American lives preparing us for this deadly pandemic. You can easily see the bulk of COVID-19 deaths occurred at the initial outbreak in March and April then began to taper off as mask mandates along with stay at home orders were implemented. No surprise as soon as it was business as usual again, we saw spikes occur in deaths, hospitalizations, and infections. That's what Republicans were demanding, so once again, the recent COVID explosion is all on them.

What do we take from this? Failed and neglectful GOP lack of leadership caused massive death, infections, and hospitalizations. Mask mandates and stay at home orders significantly reduced the number of deaths and new infections.

These are the facts and don't let any right wing propagandist try to tell you otherwise.
