    Not really. Republicans would have done ANYTHING to block that one too.

    All of this needs to begin in the first week of Biden's presidency.

    I will give him a week to begin this, because he also needs to replace Barr and begin a lot of legal prosecution of the criminals running this fucking government right now.

    If none of this happens, well then, America is lost and I'm going to be looking into dual citizenship and moving to Canada as soon as the border re-opens because the world is trying to quarantine are plagued-asses.
    So your answer to to implement dictatorship? Forget rules, forget history, break everything and change it to how I want. No questions or push back allowed? Rebuild the government exactly how my side wants it. My side and everything they do is always right.... right?

    Good to know that all the accusations about Trump being a dictator and all the antifa crap about the fascist government is really just just complaining that it not my side with all the power.

    Back to the appointment if they do it, they do it. Its no different then all the other times it has been done, yes even in election years. The key difference between this year and Obama's last year is that the democrats didn't have the Senate, so there was no way they were going to confirm a supreme court appointment before the election. As stated by many, that has not happened in over a century from both sides.

    There is no high road because everyone should admit that the democrats would not confirm it this year if they held the Senate right now and we know that if they held the Senate and Hillary was the current president they would push their pick in no matter how loud the republicans would scream.

    Oh and since you want to make DC a state, where do you want to move the capitol of the country to? The land of Washington was removed from the state it belonged in because they didn't want the Capitol of the country to be in any one state. If you want to change that, then we have to move the capitol and Washington City (no longer DC) would go back to Virginia.

    Since you want to make Puerto Rice a state I guess we can move the Federal government to .... Guam?

    The democrats had both the Senate and the House during Obama's first term. You know that right? If she had stepped down, they controlled fully the replacement.

    I'm sorry what?
    Dude, as all of my antifa friends say. You dont argue with a fascist, you crush him/her. Gaming the system in order to make it resemble the current America and make it more representative and less opresive, is not fascist, quite the opposite, in fact.

    If i was given the power, i'd send all (and i mean ALL) of the GOP senators, the white house (barring, maybe the youngest Trump childs), Barr et al, to a gulag in northern Alaska.
