Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

At that point, he'll die, Vance will take his place, and will be so un-charismatic that he'll be defeated by a Democrat in 2028 which will find themselves with all this power thanks to the Supreme Court... but will prefer to take the high road and reach across the aisle only to get fucked once again.
Well, I tried.
Had me in the first half, not gonna lie. For a second, I thought you believed that the Democrats would try to do something productive.
Nah even if they tried SCOTUS would figure out some way to suddenly narrow it's ruling. And being a good Democrat they'd comply.
There's already a path for them to do this.
Trump is already calling for a ban on nationwide injunctions, saying that any injunctions or rulings can only be applied to the specific people involved in the lawsuit and are not binding anywhere else.
If Congress passes such a bill, Trump will certainly sign it.
And once that happens, the Supreme Court could at that point just anoint Trump with whatever powers he wants and not have to worry about those powers being used by the next President, since their rulings would only apply to Trump by default, which is exactly what he wants. It would literally turn our judicial system into Calvinball.
