When your constitutional republic has the same retirement timing problems as an absolute monarchy.
Only metaphorically incestuous, but still filled with perverts somehow.
I can't figure out the angle on this. Is he afraid that if he acknowledges how institutional power works, some liberals are going to suggest they build some?
yeah uhhh conservatives accomplished their most vocally desired goal by accident. fuck yeah that sounds smart
SHUT UP S HUt Up SHUT UP! They literally have their long game spelled out in the materials for the Federalist society and every other Conservative Fake charity and Christian “University”
How is he always so perfectly wrong about every single topic. The consistency is amazing
...aside from him being entirely wrong about his main point, wouldn't they still have a 5-4 majority if she had retired?
The conservatives would have but roe vs Wade would of stayed settled law. Correct me if I'm wrong but roberts was one of the 4 on the losing side.
Roberts has to the shagrin of conservatives always gone with precedent and seems to actually have an idea of how much the court can do before it ruins it's rep with the country.
So his last point, imo it's correct.
Rbg is solely to blame for roe vs Wade.
Yes we know for a fact he would of kept his position. There's a bunch of articles about it.
His beau worried about the institution and stepping on precedent.
It's his own words. And like i said his voted several times against the conservatives wants.
But either way i don't really care. It's a stupid institution. And this is solely ruth and Obama's fault. That's just the facts
Doesn't that make it like infinitely worse? Oh, this reactionary minority party didn't design and execute a strategy for about 50 years, they simply Mr Magoo'd their way into total control over everyone's legal rights despite our best efforts

Some further thoughts on Bangladesh.
I have to say that my overwhelming personal response, as a writer and as a human being, is to be annoyed by the responses that I’m getting.
Lol, tbh in a way he's kind of right. Like there was definitely an organized conservative project to take the courts, but it's so funny that it finally succeeded purely on RGB being myopic and selfish, and Kennedy not.
