Not celebrating anything

They love throwing that elections have consequences around because, Obama.

Stop stealing elections. When your electoral strategy depends on fewer people voting it means you know your policies suck for most.

Even if the election was rigged by the Russians with Trump's involvement?

That is, if that were proven, would you still support "elections have consequences" as your line?

I dont think the new court will change much

Even the Roe vs Waders are in error.  I dont see that overturned with Kavanaugh in.

National security interests are more important to me.  The new justice could help out in that area.

Why don't you see that overturned with Kavanaugh in, given his past related votes?

And... if national security interests are more important to you, then why in the name of Cthulu do you support this administration?

Security theater =/= national security.

Senator Harris knows the answer to the question Kavanaugh doesn’t want to answer but knows damn well he’d better not lie.

I know you have multiple personalities, Red, but even when all of you agree on something it is still only one.

And no, "we" know no such thing. I would tell you to provide some evidence, but you don't do that.

We had more voters in 2016 than 2012.

So did we.

So what?

It doesn't mean that the GOP has not been actively seeking to, and sometimes succeeding at, getting people to not vote who they believe would vote for their opponents.

Your disingenous attempts to deflect the conversation have no bearing on reality.

Red thinking his party actually wins elections and has public support is just so much sadder than when he was simply clinging to his god and his guns. Red has never been strong enough to get to the truth. Now he’s just pitiful.

Question for Kavanaugh tomorrow;

If a sitting president orders the illegal assassination of a head of state, what legal consequences should follow according to our constitution?

I think it has to be asked without the word "illegal" in it to have a ghost of a chance of being answered.
