September 19, 20204 yr 26 minutes ago, Green_Guinness said: I want a 1 term limit for ANY political office and you can only serve a total of 20 years in politics and you're done. NO REELECTIONS. EVER. The idea behind the lifetime appointment was to prevent partisanship. I think we’re beyond that at this point (though I think most SC’s in my lifetime took their job seriously and weren’t overtly partisan).

He’s already up in every swing state and literally been out stumping non stop for a week. He and trump are the same age and I have no doubt that trump has at least 75 lbs over Biden. That’s a lot of work for a heart that doesn’t see any exercise.
September 19, 20204 yr Re: TJ TEW others on undecided voters. I think most would agree Trump Hilary were polarizing overall than Trump Biden and enough voters were swayed by Comey inquiry at the last minute to get them to switch from Clinton to Trump. You absolutely have voters who can be influenced

September 19, 20204 yr It could just was easily pull disaffected trump voters back in... these pundits get so much wrong. They really dont seem the grasp the intersection of behavior and game theory

I think we’re beyond that at this point (though I think most SC’s in my lifetime took their job seriously and weren’t overtly partisan). Yeah, I get that. SC and politicians are different and they wanted the SCJs to surpass the partisanship of politicians. Politicians should only be able to serve 1 term and only 20 years total in politics and NOT be allowed to be lobbyists after their political careers are over. Back to the private sector. I do think some of the SCJs outlive their usefulness and become antiquated as the times change, so a term limit in this day and age wouldn't be a bad thing.

They really dont seem the grasp the intersection of behavior and game theory There isn’t that much there. The silent majority doesn’t exist. Again, even in 2016, the republican turnout was flat. The elections since 2000 have all been about democratic turnout. If you give them a reason to turn out, like in 2018, it will be a big deal. This gives them a reason to turnout.
September 19, 20204 yr 2 minutes ago, ToastJenkins said: If they didnt have a reason by now, they arent going to be swayed by this. I tend to agree. I do think Trump has a hard time winning over moderate suburban women in this election though and RBG dying won’t help that.
September 19, 20204 yr Just now, Dave Moss said: Also, Biden is going to say he’s going to nominate a woman to replace RBG. If Trump was smart, which again he isn't, he'd nominate a woman too.
September 19, 20204 yr 2 minutes ago, we_gotta_believe said: If Trump was smart, which again he isn't, he'd nominate a woman too. He will. Amy Barrett.

September 19, 20204 yr McConnell and the Rs blocking Garland for an entire year because it’s an election year and then having press releases prepared within 90 minutes of RBG’s death saying there will be a Senate vote for Trump’s nominee like six weeks ahead of the election is one of the most infuriating things I’ve ever seen in politics. There is no decency and there are no ethics with that man. It’s disgusting.

September 19, 20204 yr Lindsey Graham, who famously said to the Senate in 2016 that he'd hold any administration to the same standard, told a CNN correspondent a few months ago re: a nomination in 2020: "We'll see what the market will bear." Oh, so it's a market now, is it? Not a nation. Fuccitall.
