    Oh right. I forgot the Democrats only appoint judges they think lean right.

    And there are hundreds being heard by Trump judges (i.e., Student Debt Relief) as well; so, you don't have a monopoly on judges.

    Well, I'm not sure what the current makeup of federal judges are, but so far some of Biden's major initiatives have been shot down by Federal judges.

    ~ Did not look like it was going to happen. Now we will see what established Republican hacks on Capitola Hill actually do . With Trump-O waiting in the wings there may just be enough pressure to motivate them . I hope so ...

    It was not that they "lean right," but for other reasons.

    This is my favorite comedy gold of a talking point by rightists. Trump and the GOP had complete control of all three branches his first 2 years and what did they do before covid came? They passed a massive bill that raised the debt for tax breaks for the top 1%.

    Y'all really need to get a talking point that isn't horseshit.

    I hope the GOP doesn't waste a lot of time on paybacks. Newt said that 90% of the GOPs time should be doing constructive thing and 10% investigating all the corruption of Senile Joe, the MSM, Big Tech and Hunter Biden. His first suggestion I agree with-stopping the hiring of 87,000 more IRS agents.

    I am interested in what causes your fan boy devotion to the Democrats. I am pretty open about why I vote GOP. I am a professional shooter and I despise Democrat attempts to ban normal capacity magazines and some of the weapons I compete and win with. I get tired of being told top one percent tax payers "don't pay their fair share" when people like me pay almost 40% of the income tax and all the death tax.

    Great! There about 5 vacancies a session due to death, resignation, or something else. How many times is the majority going to change hands in the next two years?

    What if you were to work with those you believe are "stone cold morons", the "corrupt" or the
    "religious zealots"? Would you live or let live or tell them what you think about them and refuse to work alongside them?

    Congress doesn’t confirm his position. So blather and bully all day. It won’t matter. Senate belongs to Dems

    McCarthy isn't going to go full Trumpism because he isn't in any way a Trumpist. Don't worry, you won't see any Trumpist policies from this Congress, unless they are absolutely sure there is no chance of them passing.

    I'm sure I did, but most kept their views to themselves, so I'm live and let live if they can do that.

    Obviously, I'm mostly referring to those in the public sphere, not coworkers...

    So, you're now agreeing and saying Trump's two impeachments didn't matter either?

    saying you hate the GOP is worthless. I know people who vote against the GOP because

    1) they are drug legalization advocates
    2) they see abortion as an important right
    3) they are union organizers
    4) they are gay rights activists
    5) they are gun banners.

    All of those reasons are a good reason to vote against the GOP

    What if they don't? Then what?

    But you were clear to say there's only three categories Trump supporters belong to. I would think that would be very hard for you to work with such scumbags; "stone cold morons", the "corrupt" or the
    "religious zealots".
