This reasoning is why Democrats will continued to get DOGWALKED by the GOP
> Former Representative James P. Moran, Democrat of Virginia, said a move to stack the Virginia Supreme Court would be “just a bridge too far” and could backfire on his party.
He said he understood that many Democrats felt that their party “needs to fight back and not just be victims of unparalleled aggression.” But, he added: “We do have to keep our credibility. We have to do things that pass the legitimacy test.”
This “maintaining legitimacy” thing needs to die. Republicans literally wipe their ass with both state and federal constitution, yet somehow manage to still been viewed are BARELY worse when it comes to the economy than democrats. (Last I checked it was 42% to 52% based on a fox poll)
Stack the courts, lower the retirement age to 54, appeal everything, go nuclear. Stop it with this 2008 style of political strategy. It’s dead now. We are in a political war.
(non-violent metaphorical war. I do not condone political violence. All political related violence is bad always 100% of the time and I condemn any person, left or right, who advocates or prepares for it.)
