And that’s where we are as a country. If a Democrat doesn’t like something, it’s racist. And we all know, there is no crime worse than being a racist, that includes murder.

But it was good for them before. Racist remarks now are so full of holes it’d make a nice doily - which are usually white so I guess that statement is racist also.

What a dangerous ideology. Minority rights and protection are the purpose of a republic, which we are.

This moron thinks we are a democracy. We were founded as a Republic - if we can keep it.

I’m officially fine with being, and being called, racist.

It’s a weight off of my shoulders.

“In a democracy, it’s majority rules.”

This is not a democracy, and it never was. Even considering that our schools are crap, you would think that a US Senator, on the job for some time, would have picked this up by now.

It bears repeating that we are a constitutional Republic, not a democracy.

Even US Senators don’t know we are a republic and not a democracy.

Did she think ,”majority rules” when her Democrats used to filibuster Republican presidential judicial nominees?

She’s probably working on that.

Democrats have serious problems with Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution.

Filibuster protects the minority, and is therefore racist?

Makes no sense.
