That's why the whole doom and gloom narrative of "we might as well just let them win because they get what they want anyway" is so freaking dangerous. If they get control of the Court just once, and we likely lose the right to keep and bear arms, and forums like this might be shut down as being considered "contributions in kind" to particular candidates and therefore violate election law.
I do think also you have to give the GOP as a party credit for killing that 6 trillion dollar spending bill, and especially I do think you bring up a very good point with respect to letting voters see the true consequences of implementing progressivism. But I think the best place to let that happen is on the state and especially the local level, because that's where the victims of it are primarily other progressives rather than the rest of us. Let them learn their lessons by living in their own ruined backyards, not by ruining ours. And certainly not by giving them control of the national government, especially the Supreme Court, and being able to mandate their madness for the rest of the country.
You’re very right. Once the court is stacked, we are pretty much done for. The America of my youth, warts and all, was a pretty good place to live and raise a family. That is darn near gone now, and a progressive SCOTUS would drive the final nail into the Land of the Free’s casket.
I just don’t see how we win this with the team we have, and I have no idea how to fix it. With a MAGA party—and believe me, I have posted against a third party for as long as I can remember—at least the choices will be clear.
