They're getting through either way we don't have the means to stop them. So slowing the process as much as possible means he seats less judges which is good. Even a "well qualified" Republican judge is still a negative.

That's a wild leap from what I said. You've been championing that actually Republican judges are good and our system is good and we need to vote for Republican judges to stop Trump. Our system got us Trump so your insistence that we have to keep it running no matter what smacks of self importance.

It's wild that you don't think it's currently broken and tells a lot about how much you care about it's impacts. The institutions that allowed and encouraged our current issues will not save us from them.

Yeah he's simultaneously saying we need to vote for Trump appointees because they're ABA qualified while also saying if we don't then we'll get awful judges like Cannon who was...ABA qualified.

And that was a response to you already being a condescending dick to other people in this thread. Seems we're at an impasse. I will likely never think we should celebrate Republican nominees getting appointed quick and easy. You can celebrate them if you want.

On the off chance you genuinely don't know IANAL is "I am not a lawyer"

You'd have more luck with people accepting you as an expert if you didn't act like an insecure jerk the second someone doesn't felate your opinions. IANAL but there's a bunch of Dems who are and they lose constantly and achieve very little. What's your political feat that makes you so impressive?

You get an Aileen Cannon by not using all levers to slow things and allowing them to fill more vacancies. You'll eventually get one that way.

You're making a strawman that nobody said up to argue against. You seem unwilling to accept that attempting to slow processes down is a thing that is possible even if stopping them isn't. You also seem to think a seated GOP judge is better than a vacancy which shows you don't care about results

If you want to see our nation turn more authoritarian and despotic you have a great opinion. A court backlog is not the end of the world. You "moderate" institutionalists have no ability to see the actual impacts of government. You just want it working you don't care about results.

We're aware they can't completely block all nominations. That doesn't mean they should vote for a single one or not use any means to slow down things as much as possible. Even just making sure they use all their talking time limits how many they can approve.

I'm sure the courts will be better off with more fascist Trump judges you're right how silly of us.

Reddit is a tremendous example of enshittification. Especially now locking old.reddit.com pages behind a login.

RFK needs to never see the outside of a prison cell.

Even being purely results oriented and ignoring morality it's a dumb decision from Dems and Dem strategists. It kills a lot of enthusiasm and votes in exchange for nothing. Nobody who has as an important part of their voting calculus that the candidate is anti-trans is ever voting for a Democrat.

Our Ohio democratic party is pathetic. They lose so often and way more than they should. It's been damn near 30 years of Republican control of all three branches of state government with a couple years of Dem governor in between most of those with a veto proof supermajority.

I was likely to donate and canvass and phone bank for Acton. Once this came out I decided I wouldn't. My personal voting calculus is harm reduction so I'll still be voting because Vivek is worse but I'm not going to be advocating at or judging people who it's a deal breaker for

Centrist and establishment Dems have lost here in Ohio for 30 fuckin' years. Maybe we try some progressive or leftist candidates. What are they going to do lose? Dems already do that.

The dumbest and worst people you know really hate Rory.

They can't read.
