I'm sure he could have done more than he did. Ultimately, they didn't think Trump would win and didn't fight back hard enough because they were worried about the backlash that might cause on the upcoming election.

Now, Republicans have shown that they won't allow votes in the last year, but only if the dems have the presidency. It also set the precedent that they can even do that in the first place.

I guarantee you someone who needs replacing further out than a year will now be denied in the future for some other bullshit reason.

Edit: here's my worst outcome guess. For all future terms where the dems hold the presidency, but not the senate, all future SC nomination votes will be denied since congress and the presidency is conflicted and we can't have a vote while it's in conflict.

So..

Fuck Trump obviously. And everyone who voted for him. (Edit and fuck everyone in the voting doesn't matter camp)

Also fuck Mitch McConnell

But god damnit, fuck Obama for not fighting Mitch, and fuck Ruth for not retiring when she should have.

I mean, on TV every character seems to be able to hack any system in a few seconds.

They clearly must have done some research by watching some NSA hackers who can hack every system.

So, has there been a more monumentally catastrophic series of rulings like we've had this week?

Presidents are kings and immune to the law

Kickbacks are now legal

Executive agencies completely destroyed

I know other individual rulings may be worse, but in this case the series of rulings.

Lol, that just made me think though.

Instead if made with slave labor labels

This PAC and or politician received donations from slave labor using companies and a list.

I wonder what they must think of telecommunication satellites.

The space rays are making me sick!

They should mandate a "made with ~~prison~~ slave labor " label...

Does an airline baggage-handler only get paid for the “specific minutes” when he is lifting luggage?

What's actually tragic is similar things like this do happen in the air industry

Flight attendants for example are often paid only for hours on the plane. All the time getting to the planes through security screenings doesn't count. All the work they do at the gate before and after doesn't count. It's only hours in the plane.

I guess the trope of bomb makers missing fingers in movies is based on reality.

I watched the first one, it was really well done.

There's some really interesting options in there if we can change the rules a bit.

What good does dumbing them down by defunding education have if you don't indoctrinate the new cattle?

They're farming GOP idiots.

Keep em poor, uneducated and breeding without a way to abort and in the future no contraception
