The Plot Against the Supreme Court
Front Page Magazine ^ | October 17, 2018 | Daniel Greenfield

Posted on 10/16/2018 10:47:37 PM PDT by Texas Fossil

Why did the Democrats launch an unprecedented smear campaign against a Supreme Court nominee?

The matrix of motives centers on a cynical midterm ploy to boost turnout, appeal to suburban female voters in swing states and, hopefully, defer the nomination to a Dem Senate.

But that’s the short game, not the long game.

The attack on Brett Kavanaugh was not just an assault on a man, but an attack on an institution.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg is 85 years old and Stephen Breyer is 80 years old. Presidential incumbents tend to win reelection. Even if the Democrats take the Senate, the odds are good that they won’t be able to nominate anyone to the Supreme Court until 2025.

That’s a long time away, and a lot can happen until then.

Even if Breyer and Ginsburg manage to stay in the game until a Democrat makes it into the White House, with Kavanaugh’s appointment the Supreme Court has taken on a 5-4 conservative tilt for the next seven years. It’s been a century since the Supreme Court has been this conservative.

Conservative justices have less power than lefty justices. The latter can create laws, in defiance of the constitution, while the former eliminate them, in deference to the constitution.

But those seven years can still undermine a great portion of the big government project. And, along with other judicial appointments, can neuter the radical judiciary’s effort to block President Trump’s policies.

Stopping Kavanaugh was always a longshot. But the real target was the Supreme Court.

The Democrats have a plan for taking the White House. It’s called Mueller. They have a plan for taking the House and the Senate. It’s identity politics. But they don’t want to take the Court, they want to kill it.

The ComDems want to overthrow the nation. They want to destroy it. It has never been so clear. Daniel Greenfield nails it.

Democrats aren’t finished with Kavanaugh yet. They will absolutely get one of his female clerks to accuse him of sexual intimidation. Not now, but whenever a democrat is again president. They believe his is a democrat seat and will force him to step down or be impeached. He had better be recording every interaction with every female at all times.

Males,too. If Demon-Rats can't find a female, they will find a male.

This nation will definitely not survive if Democrats get back in power.

The ComDems

That's right! They are Communist Dems or Socialist at best. They believe in 'Guilty Until Proven Innocent', abolishing the Electoral College so the small states have no say, forcing Medicare on us all 'Medicare for all' (Socialized Medicine), Open (European style) borders, and Sanctuary Cities for folks like MS-13.

They are Communist Dems or Socialist at best now.

“The ComDems want to overthrow the nation. They want to destroy it. It has never been so clear. Daniel Greenfield nails it.”

I was going to say that they wanted to overthrow the constitution, but in the broader sense, you are more correct.. they want to overthrow our country, culture, and constitution... all of it.

Both are correct. The Constitution is (was?) the essence of stability of our nation and culture.

The only way this ends is when we put some of them on trial for their crimes against the nation.

They became the ComDem Party in 1984, the last year the CPUsA ran a POTUS candidate.

Here is proof, which they now try to hide:

Totalitarianism is not about philosophy it is about force.

Totalitarianism in all forms is EVIL.

Progressive, Socialist, Marxist, Fascist, Communist, Dictator, Islamist, Bureaucrap. Are ALL EVIL!

CommiecRATs don't recognize such archaic concepts as male/female, unless of course it can be used to advance their agenda.

“They will absolutely get one of his female clerks to accuse him of sexual intimidation”

That’s why I thought he should only have hired male clerks who were conservative republicans.

He is naive if he thinks the Left won’t try to have him accused again.

If they get control of both houses and POTUS they WILL expand the court to 13 justices and pack it. Take that to the bank.

Well, it won’t survive as a constitutional republic unless the Democrats are soundly crushed before they can effect their evil designs. If they are not crushed, the U.S. will become Venezuela.
