The ironic part is that in order for any new nominee to go through before the election, the senate has to invoke the so called nuclear option, which only requires 51votes to pass.
And when/who invoked the nuclear option for the first? You guessed it, the dems. The first president to support the nuclear option? Obama.
Are you really that daft? I swear to god you guys live in a world of false equivalencies.
Do you remember why the Obama had to invoke the "nuclear option" back in 2013? It was due to unprecedented blockage and filibustering of his nominees.
It was the Republicans who decided to decide to enact zero policy other than obstructionism. They are the one's that decided they wanted to make the first black president, an entirely lame duck president by blocking his appointees. As said, this had never been conducted against a president in history prior, so what exactly were the Democrats supposed to do? Of course they enacted the nuclear option.
You're not foolish enough to not understand the disingenuous nature of the politics Mitch and the Republicans are practicing here. To claim it's "same same" is absolutely ridiculous, and a complete false equivalency.
Not only that, Trump is far ahead in appointing judges than any of president in comparison here, the Democrats are not practicing any level of obstructionism to the likes the Republicans had practiced during Obama's tenure, the numbers below clearly show that fact.

Fascinating enough, Trump is also appointing a far higher amount of white judges then prior presidents as well, how convenient, and telling, huh?
Lol. Chill lefty. I’m just pointing out the truth. Neither reps nor dems care about any of us. It’s about power grabbing. If you fantasize that dems are going to do any better, grow the fuck up. That’s not how real world works. If dems has enough vote at senate back then, they would have named a new judge.
You know what fascinates me? For being such a hardcore liberal figure, you know what I read the most about her passing from lefties? Nothing about how inspirational a life she lived, but complaining that she shoulda retired under Obama so that he coulda named a liberal judge.
Talk about priority.... I guess lefties care nothing other than their agenda. The people, the legacies... etc, don’t mean shit if it no longer work FOR the lefties.

Maybe it's just Canadian media cutting out the important stuff but do the Democrats actually have a platform? Everytime I see Biden on the news, he's just criticizing Trump.

Only thing trump supporters have is biden bad. Almost 4 years and trump has no healthcare plan. I guess we will see it when we see his taxes.

One could realistically argue that they don't really need a platform. The more Trump fucks up and digs his own grave, the better for Biden. That's a great example just above where his own words are more than enough to make him look terrible.
But if he's digging his own grave, why waste time pointing out what he's doing wrong? Campaign on what the Democrats are going to do right. Again, he might be doing that but I'm not seeing it on Canadian media. I don't have US news channels.

Trump says something stupid or incorrect almost every single sentence so everyone gets glazed eyes about it... Biden says a few things wrong here and there and it’s like zomg he’s senile.
Also Biden was/is a stutterer, so it’s remarkable he’s able to talk at the level he does at all nowadays
Awesome! Trump has finally gone down the path of no return into eugenics and promoting racehorse theory... full circle to white supremacy / Nazi party rhetoric now.

Time for him to go
I caught that report on his speech in Minnesota yesterday. I guess all those reports from back in 2015, speaking about him and his father's obsession with eugenics and superior genetics, along with Hitler's viewpoint on a "super race" were in fact true.
It was shocking to hear him expound those views in his speech yesterday to a crowd of white Minnesotans.
Scary stuff here, you have a president literally telling people that their white genetics are superior, and how immigrants are "destroying" their homogeneous communities.
I guess we don't sound so crazy anymore comparing this nutcase to Hitler, huh? It's no longer hyperbolic.

But, but........... Hitler was a genius.
Took a country on the brink of disaster to one that spawned the world's greatest inventions and innovations. Economy was hopping and they almost took over the world.......... then he went all postal/mental. So, I guess Trump is like Hitler. In that sense.

Well, if there's any silver lining, Trump has nowhere near the mental capacity of Hitler... he can't even write a tweet let alone a book on propaganda and nationalism... so he won't ever have the same rise to prominence.
