If we for example take a 20 year term limit those judges should be past retirement age anyway. If you are still concerned they might need a job, pay them a generous pension. Order one less F35 to pay for it.
The worry isnāt that theyād need a job. Itās that theyād be promised board positions for no real work upon leaving the bench. Which is still of course a possibility if a justice chooses to retire.
Also, the DNC or whoever makes these debate rules needs to talk to a poker tournament director about how to escalate blinds. At this rate there will be five people still on the debate stage the day after the general election.
I donāt get the complaint of it not being narrowed down enough yet, castro isnāt making the next debate, the blaine gabbert of the dem party who I wonāt name anymore shouldnāt, beto probably does but isnāt a lock.
Republicans had more than this in a debate during Iowa/South Carolina/etc last go around. Theyāre doing fine.
itās just impatience on my part. i like the slowness of the system from a fairness perspective. iām just itching to see a smaller debate with the (inevitable) final 4 (5?)
How many times do we need to hear Pete say conservative things before his supporters admit
A. Heās not progressive
B. Heās just your run of the mill opportunistic politician who will say whatever he needs to trying to appear electable
C. Both
Pete is a Republican. Hard pass, and frankly he has no chance so just stop talking about him.
LOL Klob.
This dynamic where there are 3+ GOP-lite turds, each polling at 1-3%, crowding the stage and piling on Warren is unfair to her and terrible for the party/country. And the debate questions are consistently GOP talking point approved AIDS.
I donāt see how Pete is a Republican. He seems like what Iād be looking for in a Cabinet secretary. As a presidential candidate, I think he is insufficiently divisive and doesnāt say enough to make corporate America hate him.
He seems like an intelligent person who could competently implement someone elseās agenda. And Iād like to see some appointments who arenāt retreads who served in previous administrations.
I could have gotten behind someone like him in 2016, given the alternatives. He doesnāt stand out as much to me in the 2020 field.
