When you can't win the game, change the rules

[airplanemechanic]

I think it's very telling how many democrats want to change the way we vote in this country and how the SCOTUS is set up.

1. They want to drop the age to vote to 16, meaning allowing children to vote in our elections.
2. They want to increase the number of SCOTUS judges and impart term limits.
3. They want to do away with the electoral college ensuring that the population centers of the country rule everyone.

Honestly, I think this is more a sign of a dying party than a strong one. If you're so strong and everyone loves you so much, why do you need to change the rules so much?

We need it to make voting more strict too

Maybe they're tired of a democracy that keeps electing presidents that most of the electorate voted against.

Because presidents don't campaign to win the popular vote.

The states, are the electorate. Not the people. Welcome to the constitutional republic of The United States of America.

Play devil's advocate on this one, if you will. You might be intelligent enough to do so. Can you be honest about it, though?

Pretend you are a Democrat. Why would you REALLY consider these initiatives?

Right, they pander to about a dozen states and ignore the rest.

All votes should be equal. Right now, they're not.

You're asking too much.

Remember what site you're on and adjust expectations.

You forgot that the Democrats want Amnesty for Illegal Aliens which is effectively Open Borders.

FDR tried to stack the Supreme Court when his socialist agenda started to fade. It was the beginning of the end of FDR's popularity despite liberal media support. This is Banana Republic stuff when democrats see President Trump appointing possibly two more constitutionalist based Justices and they hate it as much as they hate the Constitution.

Some people just understand our founders wisdom better.

you prefer the new idea they're putting out?

The electors of a state give their votes to whomever wins the national popular vote?

 

[candycorn]

Its the political silly season.

You left out the idiocy of reparations for people who were never slaves paid for by person who never owned slaves too…

Crazy assed shit is the order of the day it seems.

They are floating trial balloons all over the place, because they already know how the rest of their ideas are being received.

The truth is--------->the Democrat/Leftist/Socialists, are collapsing before our eyes. They know what is coming in the run up to 2020, and they used all the arrows in their quiver on the collusion/delusion. The arrogance of the Left was shown, when they forced/prodded Sessions to recuse himself. Sessions was a nice, decent man, but they could have controlled him. All of this would have gone away on a political deal, and the Left would not be facing exposure. But they could NOT help themselves! They bet they could get Trump out before anything else would happen, and they LOST! If they could turn Trump into Nixon, they would totally regain control.

Now, they are the ones who will look like Nixon, and they know from history, EXACTLY what that means politically for 2020, and maybe beyond!

Maybe they should take a civics class and learn how our government actually works.

Shame uneducated fools like them are allowed to vote

Maybe they know their civics but don't like the way the power in this country is distributed. In the age of the internet, maybe we don't need a layer of bureaucracy between the people and their government.

obviously they don't know or understand it.

What they want requires a constitutional amendment that will NEVER pass the required states.

All they're doing is making fools of themselves

I doubt anyone thinks it will pass today. Never is a very long time and, as they say, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
