Brakebill was not Justice Kavanaugh’s first ruling. If you so much as glance at the Court’s opinion, it’s hard to miss its second sentence: “JUSTICE KAVANAUGH took no part in the consideration or decision of this application.” Expand Kavanaugh took no part in gang rapes, either...but he did nonetheless.

A lot of good work could be swept under the rug if the dems gain control. Expand It's most important to retain the House because otherwise they'll try to impeach everyone, with Speaker Nancy Pelosi third in line for the White House.

Expand The House can try to impeach people all they want but even if they do and send it to the Senate they'll never get the 67 votes. The Senate on the other hand still has a lot of lifetime judgeships to approve. During Trump's tenure he might even be able to flip the Ninth Circuit.

Expand Doesn't matter if they don't get the votes in the Senate. What matters is the House votes to impeach Trump and Kavanaugh. So when the Democrats eventually return to power, they can say something something Trump impeached so something something something about Executive Orders and something something something about foreign policy and something something someting about those judges are illegitmate and something something something decisions they don't like that Kavanaugh voted for/against are illegitimate and something something shut up because you're a racist.

Expand Yes, this, pretty much. Hell, after the shitshow we just saw involving Kavanaugh, you really think it matters that the Senate won't convict? Senate Democrats will just throw accusation after innuendo after roadblock into the hearings to string out the "Trump's impeached, his presidency is illegitimate" narrative. Side note: have the Democrats realized yet they have "grounds" to impeach three judges? Kavanaugh, Thomas (for raping Anita Hill), and Gorsuch (as an illegal nomination who's in Garland's deserved seat.)

Expand You sound like you're where I was a couple of decades ago. I used to lean toward the democrats when I was younger, partially because I was a bit more idealistic then, but also because they were big on national defense, were staunchly anti-communist, and were significantly more pragmatic with regard to the economy. They no longer even remotely resemble the democrat party I used to support, and I no longer vote for any of them, even in races where they run unopposed. Now that I think about it, it was more than 'a couple decades ago". It was more like four decades ago. &$#% I'm getting old. Edited October 16, 2018 by Azalin edited for accuracy 3 1
