@chasmat.bsky.social: Because the Democratic caucus has a majority and there is no filibuster on Supreme Court nominations...? What point are you trying to make?

The thing I can't stop thinking about is this: I'm 48, and in my adult lifetime there has been one Republican who won the popular vote. But I will probably spend the rest of my life under the authority of a Supreme Court dominated by hard right conservatives. How is that democracy?

A biden win this election probably results in a 5-4 liberal court

do you think the Senate votes on any Biden appointees

Yes

Why would they?

I'm assuming the Dems lose the Senate this cycle, so a reelected Biden is facing a GOP Senate.
