    That’s weird. When the right is gaslighting others about injecting deeply radical activist judges into the system, they claim that judges should just be calling balls and strikes and so on. And now they are screaming about what are most likely center-right judges, LOL.

    The butthurt is strong with the GOP, that’s for sure.

      once you assume that everything they say and do is about manipulating the system to gain as much power as possible, then using that power to reward loyalists and inflict violence on people they don’t like, everything starts to make sense. at this point the republican party is an attempt at a junta in the US.

      Once you realize that they don’t give a damn about the rules you know how to deal with them.

      Vote all of them out.

      They just have no morals only self enrichment. They aren’t butt hurt, they are evil.
