Packing the Court
Why is everyone talking about the repercussions of Biden packing the court if he’s elected? If we’re able to get all three branches under democratic control, we’ll never have to worry about GOP retaliation. And here’s why:
The problem with so many voters is a lack of critical thinking. They don’t know why their democrat president won’t get things done. They don’t understand that without congress and the SC backing the president, the president can’t do shit. So when nothing gets done, they’re like “oh well maybe I’ll vote Republican this time because democrats clearly don’t do anything.”
Then when the Republican president can’t accomplish anything, they’re like “oh well maybe I’ll vote Democrat this time, since the Republicans can’t do anything.”
Basically “I don’t understand how the three branches work, but I know the president is important, so he’s always to blame. Next time I’ll vote for the other person.” I recognized this cycle when I was like. 13.
And now we have a unique chance to have a Democratic president, a democratic congress, and a democratic supreme court and the GOP is trying to block that by cramming a square peg into a round hole at the last possible moment.
So I ABSOLUTELY support Biden packing the court in order to counteract this blockade from the Republicans. My hope is that if this happens, and democrats control the executive and legislative branches with the SC leaning left, things will get done. It’s also my hope that the corrupt Republican party will either disband due to their lies being exposed or (more likely and a much more pleasant thought) they’ll all die of old age and take their corruption to hell with them.
Either way, the party that exists right now will no longer be around to retaliate. If Biden is elected and good things get done (healthcare reform especially) he will probably be elected for another four years. (or he’ll die ‘cuz he’s old, too, and we’ll have Harris.)
Best case scenario, we get 8 years of Democratic control, during which the Republican Old Guard dies off, and we get a sort of reboot on our national politics, wherein we can finally start to move forward.
Worst case scenario (and something I am very wary of, despite the “hope” and “positivity” in this post) is that EVERYONE is fucking corrupt and we’re all doomed anyway. But honestly, I’m willing to try before everything burns down.
my god, more shit happened after I wrote this yesterday. Shit about GOP mail tampering and insight into “hoping people die” under the read more:
