Looks like McConnell wins again

[rightwinger]

Nothing Democrats can do about it. McConnell will get his 6-3 Supreme Court and even Roberts will not be able to contain the Conservative Court.

Democrats have learned that elections have consequences and what matters most is getting your way, not doing what is right.

So what can Democrats do if they win the White House and Senate in November?

There is much talk about packing the court and expanding seats. But I think that is excessive. What they should do is end the filibuster in the Senate.

Democrats should immediately:

1. Repeal the Trump Tax Cuts
2. Pass effective Gun Control
3. Expand Obamacare and make it impossible to repeal
4. Pass Immigration Reform
5 Pass extensive Environmental Protections

Expand the tax cuts
Repeal gun laws
Penalty is gone finally. Ocare is dead
Enforce the immigration laws that we ALREADY have
Continue to downsize the EPA

Tax cuts did not pass filibuster and can quickly be repealed. I would like to see a return of Pre Bush tax rates for business and the wealthy

Ban assault rifles, large capacity magazines and enforce strict rules on who can purchase firearms.

Restore the mandate, expand Medicaid, expand Healthcare Exchanges......all leading to Medicare for All

Make DACA permanent, defund the wall, expand temporary work permits and a path to citizenship

Raise Minimum Wage to $15 and permanently tie increases to inflation.

Make permanent changes to Climate Change goals and environmental protections.


All can be done by Democrats if they repeal the Senate Filibuster

My God, talk about destroying the country in short order. This is a short-sighted wish list for the brain dead.

Once Dems win in November...
Who really cares what you think?

If the roles were reversed, the Democrats NEVER would have blocked a SCOTUS appointment for a year.

Bullshit, it’s disingenuous to pretend otherwise. They’d play whatever game they saw necessary to obtain advantage

Show me where Dems have ever done anything close preventing a President from filling a SCOTUS seat or holding a seat open for over a year


Your “Dems would have done it too” is total Bullshit

What should be done is a return to full filibuster and a reversal of the Reid stupitdy.
The current system is untenable and will lead to utter chaos.

I know....
Everything they are threatening to do is what they have planned to do anyway. Showing restraint in return for conciliatory reaction from the left is laughable at best....
They will shake your hand but only to hold you still while they stab you to death with the other hand.

...Trump is a Republican politician.

Rump is a 'Reformed Democrat'...what matters to him is Personal Power... and to-the-Devil with the rest of us... of either party. Believe it.

 

[justoffal]

The Senate filibuster will done away on the first day of the new term.

This is over for the Republicans as they are now constituted.

Oh please grow up....every threat you are making was set in stone long ago.
There is no new motivating force for the left to seek its Tryanny....it has always been there. The idea is premature....what will you do if the GOP beats you to the punch.....doubles the court and then Packs it?
You're very stupid.

Democrats are now talking about impeaching Trump to stop him. They are talking about packing the courts by expanding the number of justices so they don't lose power. They are talking about trying to get rid of the electoral college system so they can win. They are even going as far as to talk about making Puerto Rico and DC a state so they can pack the Senate.

But you don't think it's beyond them to stop a Republican President from nominating a new justice in a years time? You have to be kidding me. In their actions and words, they have made it painfully clear they will do anything to gain or maintain power regardless of the will of the people. Since they took leadership of the House, they spent most of their time trying to devise plans to get rid of President Trump. But oh! They would never think of stopping his nomination for SC if they had leadership of the Senate. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Very true

If Trump wins.......Dems can’t do anything

That is why it is essential that Dems get out and VOTE. They need to win more than the Presidency. They need to win elections at the state and local levels. They need to have control when new voting districts are drawn next year.

Anti Trump outrage can bring out those voters

They didn't do it only because the opportunity never presented itself. I did show you that they would based on all the other more radical ideas they are talking about today.

And yet during the Obama years you Dims lost over 1000 State House seats. It was a complete repudiation of Obama, socialism, and Obama's and the Dim desire to "Fundamentally transform America. ".

But instead of learning from this experience Dims went all in, becoming even more left wing, more socialist, and more out of touch. This crap does not play in middle America. It plays in shit holes like Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York but those places do not represent American thinking at all.

We sure did and Democrats paid a heavy price for ignoring local and state level elections.

Allowed Republicans to form the voting districts for State Govt and the House In 2010

That is why it is essential Dems take local elections so they can Gerrymander the hell out of Republicans

I hate to reply to a post twice, but I just found this going through the news this morning:

Democrats prepare bill limiting U.S. Supreme Court justice terms to 18 years

Democrats in of the House of Representatives will introduce a bill next week to limit the tenure of U.S. Supreme Court justices to 18 years from current lifetime appointments, in a bid to reduce partisan warring over vacancies and preserve the court's legitimacy.

www.reuters.com

So here we go. What does this tell me? It tells me that Democrats are not just concerned about Trump and his pick this year, but are concerned for the many years upcoming. Or....... given the fact Obama's pics are safe (nominated in 2009 through 2016) for now, Bush's picks (nominated in 2005) would soon be off the bench.

But noooooo. Democrats would never dream of holding up a Republican nominee if they were in charge of the Senate.

You still don't get it. In order to win elections outside of a handful of major urban centers and truly be a national party you need an agenda Americans can get behind. Banning fossil fuels, cars, and cows will not get you there. Supporting riots an defunding police.....bad idea. Putting illegals over working Americans dumb. Socialism in general....Very dumb.

The Democrat Party when I was growing up was supposed to represent the working man. You Dims have completely given that up. Now it's about where transgender people can pee, and allowing illegals to come into the Country without check and take jobs away from ordinary Americans.

You Dims have a shitty agenda. Demonizing Trump with the media's help is not a long term strategy. If Biden does get in and follows the current Dim agenda you guys will get killed in subsequent elections. Stop being so damn Dim. Seriously.

Democratic agenda

A strong response to COVID based on Science not politics
Preserve America’s healthcare and make it better
Environment over short term profits
Affordable higher education
Raise the minimum wage
