My Facebook page has a couple of posts today about Federal court triumphs regarding school lunches and gerrymandering.

They will probably be appealed to the Supreme Court which trump and the rest of the right wing now owns lock stock and barrel. If he is re elected and gets to replace RGB, the checks and balances of the Supreme Court will be gone for 50 years. The Supreme Court is about a lot more than abortion.

Unfortunately the democrats are so divided right now it looks like he is going to be re elected. I almost hope they're right that losing the election will make the DNC start listening to the people. Then I remember it won't make any difference because they will have shredded every right and every recourse that might make it possible to actually elect a liberal or anything other than a right wing dictator.

...as you’re feeding into it 😕 At least you got the Court part right. When the Democratic primaries are open to anyone, and the vast majority vote for one person … how is that ‘the DNC’s fault’?

The first thing my Atheist mentor taught me was the seriousness of politics, if in the age of Reagan.. It’s what drives me to this day. There is only one party that can counter the pure evil the Republican party has become. It’s long been the party of the people, and still is.

Those not having paid attention, or perhaps even involved.. do not realize how the ‘the playing field’ has been changed - Citizens United Decision for example. Loss of The Fairness Doctrine for another… Add to those the multitude of Republican Voter Suppression, Intimidation, and Gerrymandering … and lock-step Republican scorched-earth political tactics -- and if the Democrats seriously plan to oppose them - that’s the field on which they're forced to play!

Why is it, those around here - as threatened by the Republican Party and Court you described … attack the softest target..? It may appear big & strong in their heads … but in reality -- it’s Chickenshit.

I await America's version of the French revolution. At the same time, I'm doubtful it will happen in my lifetime.

At least there will be a temporary relief
