Oh, no, many of the things he did. What a nightmare. Won’t anyone consider the plight of the male, pale, and stale. Oh the humanity.
Is this guy delusional? After the way his party treated him in the convention, he still doubles down that the problem is the democrats?
Republicans are like that abused and thrashed partner in a bad relationship. Where instead of figuring out ways to leave it and be better. They willingly stay and are like “But…but…I still love them miserably!”.
That’s Republicans for Trump.
After the way his party treated him in the convention
Wait, what? Tell me more…
Thanks - totally missed that story somehow
Can’t stop felating trump ya know.
Is that a promise?
what an assholish shitstain.
he’s totally okay with handing fascists over as long as those fascists “promise” to give him a seat at the table when they take over the country
and you know what they say about people who sit at the table of fascists? (they’re also fascists)
https://www.thoughtco.com/dantes-9-circles-of-hell-741539 he’s right there at the bottom.
This gives hell a bad name … I’d rather be burned alive for eternity than to spend all that time next to him.
Eh, upon review, seeing that Dante put Epicurus in hell, most of the people on lemmy would just go into the 6th circle too, buncha lefty heretics 😁
Meh, pretty sure the 9th/center of hell for most of the world. If betraying Caesar (lords, masters or those who serve them) is all it takes to get there then all who dispelled previous rulers are there.
what an assholish shitstain.
Well…yeah. It’s Mitch McConnell. Have you not heard of Mitch McConnell before?
I have. But he’s still an assholish shitstain who manages to surprise me.
whatever their ‘worst nightmares’ are, are more than likely just what we need, and what most of us actually want.
Anything that’s a nightmare to Republicans sounds like a dream to Democrats
McConnell continued. “By the way, on packing the Supreme Court … you may know this already. It’s unconstitutional.”
Alternative headline ‘McConnell Admits Packing Supreme Court Unconstitutional’.
Hahaha, I had almost forgotten how good that face is. The eyes, the lip, the ears… perfection.
By the way, on packing the Supreme Court … you may know this already. It’s unconstitutional.
The only things the constitution has to say on the matter of the supreme court are: there has to be one, the supreme court judges should be paid, and the president can appoint supreme court justices with the advice and consent of the senate. It is completely silent on matters of how many supreme court justices there should be, or how long their terms should be.
For all his many, many faults, Mitch McConnell is not a profoundly stupid man, so I’m sure he knows this. Since he very likely knows this already, he probably has a reason for lying to the public on the matter. If the president does appoint several more justices, it’s not like the Republicans can sue: no lower court would take the case, and the supreme court would already be packed with people who will actually be faithful to the constitution. So legal threats are a complete non-starter. That just leaves non-legal threats, which is what I think this is. I think Glitch is previewing the Republican strategy in the case of Harris getting more justices hired, which is they’ll stoke up the fear and hatred of their idiotic, mouth breathing supporters. It’s a thinly-veiled threat of treason.
Man, that’s the worst nightmare scenario? Fucking weaksauce. They’d still be breathing, instead of, y’know, put up against a wall and shot, like SCOTUS has ruled is perfectly legal now. As always, every word out of his mouth is self-serving bullshit.
It’s weird just how many things that are a Republican’s nightmare are also in my dreams.
Fun fact, Congress can change the size of the Supreme Court at will for any reason.
They SHRUNK the court in 1866 from 9 to 7 because they just fucking hated Andrew Johnson THAT MUCH and they wanted to deny him a nomination.
After Johnson was out, they raised it back up to 9 in 1869, Granting 2, and it stayed that way ever since.

“The Supreme Court had just ruled that paper money was unconstitutional, which would have ‘wreaked havoc’ with the U.S. Treasury, says Marcus. But Grant and Congress quickly confirmed two new justices who reversed the Court’s decision in the earlier case, saving the Republicans from having to undo the nation’s entire system of legal tender.”
The Supreme Court had just ruled that paper money was unconstitutional
Jesus and I thought our court was making the most dumbass decisions. Wierdly gives me hope that the Harris administration can fix a whole bumcha bullshit though.
I misread Harris as Harrison and I thought that you were making a joke that it was the 1880s again…
The dream of the 90s is alive in Portland…
They also shrank the court to 8 in 2016.
That was a little different, they didn’t actually change the size of the court, they just maintained the vacancy.
In 1866 they actually went and said “Nah, 7 is good.” Which not only kept Johnson from filling a vacancy, it bounced someone else out.
Paper money unconstitutional? Wow.
Don’t threaten me with a good time, you creepy old shirtball!
By the way, on packing the Supreme Court … you may know this already. It’s unconstitutional.
Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation.
Well, of course. Consider your own reference. Mitch knows they are wildly unpopular, and making it easier for the common folk they’ve been fucking over for years to vote would be disastrous for them.
Please just die already you turtlefaced googly eyed fuck
I’d rather he stroke out and have to sit drooling all over himself in a puddle of his own shit trapped in his mind and unable to communicate with anyone for a few years. Death is too easy for this asshole.
That’s pretty much how he already is and is a big part of the problem
If he was able to communicate for this article he’s not far enough gone.
