  1. If Trump’s elected there won’t be a supreme Court anymore, just a king and his fools

  2. So my first reaction was…this indirectly insults the current Supreme Court Judges appointed by Trump. That’s never a good idea. Then I thought about how partisan those Judges are, selected and groomed by the Federalist Society. How a senior conservative judge takes open bribes, and how his wife was involved in overthrowing the government….and then I think, it won’t change a thing.

  3. The answer is no. Trump will always do the inverse of what competent leaders do.

  4. Congress needs to set rules for selecting a Justice….too long and too often have presidents tried to put their thumb on the scale by appointing only those within their party.

    The court must be balanced. Because previous presidents appointed carelessly and the guarantee of a lifetime appointment, it is important to even out the justices by adding more. Three more left leaning.
    After adding justices, the Congress should add rules stating that a seat must remain either left leaning or right leaning. This should eliminate this issue. For example if there is a dem president and one of the republican judges dies, that president will have to exhibit leadership and selflessness by choosing someone who does agree with him. That is the behavior a president should be exhibiting. It shows a true desire for balance and fairness like the founders wanted to begin with.

  5. Biden is not adequately conveying the danger here.

    Multiple older conservative justices will retire and be replaced by even more extreme and much younger federalist society / heritage foundation members.

    There’s also a risk of a liberal justice or two having to retire.

    Think women/lgbt/minorities have it bad now?

  6. Supreme Court Justice Herschel Walker has a nice ring to it!

  7. Drumpf has to win before he can make that pick, and that is far less likely than many people would like you to believe.

  8. Supreme Court Justice Trump has a nice ring to it /s (I hope?)

  9. What’s funny is the two worst justices aren’t even ones appointed by Trump.

  10. A lot of civics & social studies programs in public schools were diminished when No Child Left Behind under W. Bush kicked into gear. That’s not to say there’s no civics being taught; it just wasn’t the priority next to all the STEM classes being over-emphasized in K-12.

  11. Why on earth does the Supreme Court not have term limits?!

  12. If given the chance, tfg will add seats then fill those seats with 30 year old federalist names

  13. As a filthy foreigner, I’d be amazed if the US held together long enough for him to get a nomination in front of the senate.Should he be re-elected.

  14. Yes, I do, which is the scary part. Evil, smart people are the biggest threat to Democracy.
