One thing is beyond any dispute: heartland liberals are very, very bad at the sign game.

Murkowski has not said this since RBG died. Until she does, it isnât real.

Get Romney and then a firm 4th and Iâll raise my hopes from 0.05% that it doesnât get done to 10%.

I like your name better. Iâm Fucky Fuckery
Thatâs damn good
Fuck Fucknoâs got a nice porn name ring to it.
Even if Collins, Romney, and Murkowski were to unequivocally state that they will vote ânoâ on any candidate brought up by McConnell up to and including Jesus Christ himselfâDinesh dâSouzaâwe are far more likely to lose them than pick up anyone else. I promise if we pick up anyone else that Susan Collins will have a change of heart. We know this because she is Susan Collins. And because sheâs a Republican.
I would try not to waste psychic energy on this. They are getting their justice, itâs just a matter of timing. And that is whatever they think is most politically beneficial. They could be wrong on this choice, but they will get their justice.
So then itâs on to the election. Maybe Biden can win. Maybe not. I think there are likely some true absurdities that even this corrupted SC wouldnât allow, but thatâs just me being naive. Trump is likely to just outright cheat the election. Thatâs what happens in managed democracies. There is no real election.
And even if somehow Biden wins and the Dems take the Senate with a narrow margin, they are beholden to their donors. Theyâre not getting rid of the filibuster. Theyâre not packing the court.
Itâs fight or flight now, I think. Flight is the less courageous, more privileged option at this point, but from a survival standpoint the smart one.
The fight option starts with joining a mutual aid society and getting food to people and maybe some day getting food yourself. Because really, itâs time to start preparing for what already is and has been.

Who is making the IDGAF drunk/high containment thread for not living in reality. Shit has gotten pretty brutal.

Would it be possible to get something similar to the Florida Man feature so every time I see the words Susan Collins I see Fuckn Fuckins? Maybe this is the wrong thread for that.

Iâve already moved on to being totally fine with them getting this justice because it seems to have finally clicked with elected democrats that they have to end the filibuster and pack the court if given the opportunity.

I envy your optimism tbh.
Odds of either happening is sub 10%.

Bernie Sanders was dragged out into the street and curb stumped by the democrat primary voters. If you are really into the âsocialismâ thing then there are these magical things called airplanes -get on one and go somewhere else IMHO.
Letâs say the Dems announced they were going to pack the court like some on here want. Is there anything stopping the Rs from pre-packing the court?
Also for those who wanted RBG to retire under Obama - maybe she had that plan but we know Rs would have blocked any new nominations the last two years or so. Seems like her best shot was to retire under Hillary.
suzzer â fucker as well. You were made for this game.
Fuckobet isnât bad
I am fairly certain the expansion of the court requires legislation first.
