Got an idea on the nomination of lifetime appointment judges by the president

If we ever gain a supermajority in the Senate, the rules should be changed so that a president can only nominate a lifetime appointment judge if he/she wins the Electoral College and the popular vote.

This is the first fallacy in this  :stoner: drug-induced fantasy of yours. :therock:

And this is the other one. The "rules" of which you speak is the United States Constitution. The rules change you're seeking would require a CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT, and there's a reason the political masters of you mouth breathing imbeciles avoid those like the plague (a couple of them, actually).
  • You mouth breathers aren't as numerous as you like to think you are (probably only about 20% - 25% of the voters, once the zombies that rise from the grave every Novemberearly and often are eliminated; and
  • The individual states - their legislatures, specifically - also get a vote on this brain fart of yours. Have you noticed - as just one example point - how many of those legislatures have recently enacted, ohhh... Permitless Concealed Carry, among other leftist scum hated measures?
    You'd need 3/4 of the state legislatures to endorse this little abortion of yours, and there's no way in hell you could even manipulate 38 state legislatures into signing off on this.

Any DUmp post that starts with "I've got an idea . . . " is going to be stupid. Guaranteed.

Yep. It's like the DUmbass takes a shit in its own hand and takes to the other DUmbasses and says "Smell this. I made it al by myself." and the other DUmbasses tell it what a great job it did how magnificent it is.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

We all know the constitution is old and written by a bunch of old rich racist white guys who were probably closet fascists so why bother with it  :thatsright:

They should change the rules so that courts actually have to follow the Constitution. :thatsright:

"They" should change the rules so that politicians who propose laws which stand in defiance of the Constitution are looking down the barrel of treason charges within 48 hours of the Supreme Court striking down the law or any portion thereof.

Ahhh, who am I kidding?  :thatsright:
