Sure is a good thing that she and her husband got the ball rolling for the Republicans! What would we do without deregulated and monopolistic media, Neo-liberalism globalization that gutted the middle class, deregulated markets that created the sub prime crisis of 2008, and a judicial system that punished people for being poor and/or BIPOC.
She was not wrong, she just was also complicit.
YUP. So much deregulation happened under the Clinton presidency and everyone sings his praises. He's a traitor to his constituents and country.
The legislative branch are just cowards, period. Don't like the way the SC has interpreted a law? No fucking problem: re-write the law. It's LITERALLY thier fucking job.

If a Republican president can do it, so could Biden in order to prevent that from happening. Why didn't he? Why didn't Kamala run on stacking the courts in her favor?
Because the president needs the congress to approve those judges, and the last time team blue had both the presidency and the congress was when Obamacare was passed.
You mean Romney's ACA? Cause Dems love to co-operate with Conservatives?
Uh what the fuck? Dems won both houses in 2020.
which was watered down because we had people LIEBERMAN.
It was 'watered down' because Obama is a Reagan-era conservative that fully believes and has wrote about supporting neoliberal economics (aka trickle down) and was using naive 'progressive' liberals to get elected and take the steam out of popular protest and progressive movements that did threaten the oligarchy. Just a reminder the same exact companies sat in his cabinet that sit in Bush's and Trump's.
There was never any 'Hope,' there was never any 'Yes we can,' there was only 'Please God stop protesting and don't ever realize that with literally 2% of the country freshly homeless due to the 2008 crisis that Obama's future cabinet members directly explicitly caused knowing it would cause a massive economic crash that there are more than enough people to actively revolt against the US government and oligarchy that have absolutely nothing else left to lose.'
There's a reason Biden, one of the most right-wing politicians in the History of the United States, tapped Obama and encouraged him to run for the presidency despite having practically no political, military, or economic experience outside being a mayor and senator for a couple of years.
DMC: Run Biden 15 more times you say?
It will be 2036 and AOC will make her presidential bid and the DNC will be like "guess we need to get the shovel to dig Biden back up"
It's Run-DMC btw
It's Tricky
I guess more people should've voted for Bernie in 2020.
yeah, they should have
And Bernie should have not gone soft on his "good friend Joe" like he did. Bernie voters should have made it clear they wouldn't vote blue no matter who - and Biden would lose the election.
But those mistakes were made, and here we are now. With the consequences of them.

The people who needed to hear it weren't listening while the rest of us were screaming.
Yeah. I remember saying this shit 10+ years ago too. Jesus fuck I'm tired....
they have no need, 6-3 is already a supermajority. thats why they have been brazen in the last 2 years repeal every case they can, they cant touch interracial relationships yet, because alot of gop are married to poc wives. they made sure thier scotuses arnt that old fart, if they are about to step down they replace it under 30days much like with RBG.
The tweet is from 2016
This is false. Any president in US has the power to do this and in a proper democracy no president should have the power to meddle with the justice system. Sepaeatipn of power and all that.
"in a proper democracy, power should be vested in lifetime appointments to the court that cannot be changed by later elections"
It was sorta expected they would be highly qualified senior judges, so you have like 20 25 years, not grabbing law school grads that can sit for 50 years. I would support 20 year term, the point is that they should be less sensitive to politics.
they should be less sensitive to politics
How's that working out in practice?
And yes, she was right ten years ago.
BE A BETTER CANDIDATE
She was a better candidate. Better than trump.
That bar's so low, it's in the Earth's core.
