âThe only court packing going on right now is going on with Republicans⌠Itâs not constitutional what theyâre doing,â
Iâd like to say Biden isnât realy that stupid. I really would, but there is video of him saying what Senate republicans are doing is unconstitutional.

Foreseeable future? You never answered the question. What did you mean by âTwo is enough for nowâ? Enough for what?
What you wrote in response to what I WROTE was âYouâre the only one suggesting 12 new justices. Two is enough for nowâ, suggests that by adding two new Justices nominated by the Democrat Party Leadership, will create a majority which may then impose the Democrat Party Leadershipâs view of social justice, fairness and reasonableness as the ârule of lawâ, even though such rulings are not in harmony with the intentions and beliefs under which our Constitution was adopted.
From you words in context, it appears you reject the people of the United States being governed by their own reason and choice as expressed in a written constitution, and following its amendment process for change. Instead, you embrace the people of the United States being ruled by the whims and fancies of a Supreme Courtâs majority untethered to a written constitution, and to do so two more new Justices, hand picked and approved by the socialist controlled Democrat Party Leadership, are needed.

The communist/socialist controlled Democrat Party Leadership is known for accusing others of what they themselves are guilty of.

And what would their âgoalâ be? Biden seems to indicate the voters donât deserve to know what the Democrat Party Leadership is up to:

The Biden/Harris Administrationâs plan to keep Obamacare, which currently covers less than 20 million people ___ many being foreigners/aliens ___ will outlaw the existing private health insurance plans for over 150 million American Citizens, and force them into a Socialist, Cuban style healthcare system.

Sleep Joe does it again! In a speech in Toledo, Ohio on Monday, he once again tell us he is running for the Senate!

And yet his lead expanded after he said that.
Looks like the voters donât care about the issue enough to not vote for him.
The question remains in the next three weeks, what other scary things will Trump supporters try and throw out there about Joe Biden that wonât stick?
Apparently Biden was running for the SenateâŚagain⌠today.
Maybe he thinks if he wins the âSenateâ race he can vote for a dem nominee?

Extortion is such an unpleasant word.

Yes. Extortion is unpleasant, but an accurate portrayal which characterizes a threat to embrace Venezuelaâs model of turning our system into a dictatorship by adding 12 new Justices loyal to the socialist controlled Democrat Party Leadership if the Republican controlled Senate dares to give its consent to a Supreme Court nominee.
And how would that threat, if carried out by the socialist controlled Democrat Party Leadership affect our system of government? All we need do is recall what took place in Venezuela.
In 2012, Hugo Chavez, the socialist president of Venezuela died, and was replaced by Chavezâs hand-picked, NicolĂĄs Maduro. Soon thereafter, the Supreme Court was âpackedâ with 12 new Justices loyal to President Hugo ChĂĄvezâs party, and it begins to neuter and destroy Venezuelaâs democratic system of government. See: 2013: Maduro Challenged by Opposition Leader
âAs Venezuelaâs situation worsens, the Maduro regime arrests opposition political leaders and shuts down news websites and detains journalists, leading to criticism from the U.N. and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. In 2017, Venezuelaâs Supreme Court, filled with Maduro loyalists, take away the powers of the National Assembly, increasing Maduroâs control. The following year, he is reelected overwhelmingly in an election that a coalition of other western hemisphere nations says âlacked legitimacy.â
Indeed, extortion is a very accurate characterization of what the socialist controlled Democrat Leadership is threatening.

Well, biggestal99 ?
Wouldnât you agree âextortionâ is an accurate characterization?
JWK
Nope. Itâs just politics.
Itâs like calling someone a traitor because you disagree with their politics.
Canât we use more genteel terms?
