The GOP straight up said they would not approve any of Hillary's appointments. When everyone thought she had it in the bag, GOP came out with shit like "8 is a good number"


If Hillary wins, the GOP would still be on some fuck shit. In this alternate reality where Hillary wins, she still doesn't get to nominate.

GOP blocks. Breyer doesn't retire. Etc.

I know you love to look down on people and feel smarter, but you are wrong.

Yeah people should have held their nose and voted. But voters are no more to blame than RBG's ego, Obama's miscalculation on Garland, and Biden/Democrat unwillingness to be bold in the face of bold times.

Joe Biden is still waxing poetic about working with Thurmond. Dude is not built for these fights.

Bullshit. See above.

Voting Rights Act, Roe v Wade,

Even if I bought your premise- which is just built as a way to continuously rehash 2016 and predictably let Democrats off the hook for doing anything- it doesn't solve shit.

It doesn't address the issue.


Which is...right today....knowing we can't go back in time....what is the plan from the "lesser evil" party to address these things?


IF Biden and Dems are powerless to address this, why bother?


If your response/thinking is always "they should have voted for Hillary" and it ends there...then fuck it. Why worry about any of it?
