Let’s not beat around the bush. It is more likely than not that Donald Trump will return to the White House next year. Right now, polling averages show Trump with a slight popular vote lead over incumbent President Joe Biden. And, even if Biden overcomes this small deficit, the Electoral College system effectively makes Trump votes count more than Biden votes.
Although there may be signs that the Republican Party’s advantage in the Electoral College is fading, that advantage was substantial in the last two presidential elections. Democrat Hillary Clinton beat Trump in 2016 by more than two points in the popular vote, but still lost the Electoral College. Biden beat Trump by more than four points, but would have lost if a small number of votes had flipped to Trump in a handful of states.
That means that, if Justices Sonia Sotomayor or Elena Kagan remain on the Supreme Court past this year, they risk allowing their seat to be filled by a convicted felon who tried to overthrow the duly elected government of the United States of America, inciting an insurrection at the United States Capitol in the process.
The full picture for liberals on the Supreme Court is even grimmer. It is still possible that Biden will prevail this November — polls fairly consistently suggest that the most engaged voters prefer the incumbent — but Democrats need a miracle to keep their majority in the malapportioned United States Senate.
Senate malapportionment is such a liability for Democrats that Republicans would not have controlled the Senate at all since the late 1990s if Senate seats were distributed fairly based on population.

Insurrection? Russia collusion? “Felonies”? So boring.
These people are demonstrating their evil hearts/morals now more than ever before. It boils down to their desire for complete sexual perversion with no way to stop it and they are willing to sacrifice EVERYTHING to get that. I never knew they were THAT evil until Trump came along.
They forgot to add "impeached".
Exactly. The other side has clearly demonstrated that we can NOT live together any more. Their morals/values are completely intolerable and their view of us is exactly the same. There can no longer be any compromise. One or the other has to go and they are telegraphing that with all of their might. It's just that many Americans can NOT see the writing on the wall for this nation if we don't get these people removed from any form of authority.
What dreck. How do these people stand themselves.
Good to see their panic, but do not let us relax.
Ds must be buried good and deep in the house and senate. It’s our best and perhaps last chance to return sanity to this republic.
Dems & Soros & Co. will spend heavily there to save themselves, knowing WH is lost.
Bury the bastards.
I cannot spare this man, he fights.
The Senate is not “malapportioned” because the Senate is not subject to apportionment at all.
In fact, to obstruct popular democracy is why the Senate exists at all.
Here’s hoping both Sotomayor and Kagin have Ginsberg-like egos and hang on until it’s too late.
My theory, in a nutshell, is that the Civil War was fought because the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness recognized in the Declaration of Independence trumped states’ rights in that instance. It was an extreme situation and something not resolved at the founding. Otherwise, states’ rights should prevail except for the federal powers enumerated in the Constitution.
This author has no basic understanding of our system of government and how it is constituted. Mind boggling how nonsensical and ignorant this article is in its comments on the Senate and the Electoral College.
Leftists have been destroying baseball by changing the rules in order to allow 10 men on the lineup card (designated hitter.)
They’ll get around to reversing the 1960 Works Series.
Or they’ll throw out any statistics from the time before blacks were allowed to play, saying they don’t count. So say “Goodbye” to Babe Ruth’s 714 Home Runs.
Don’t forget Kunta Kinte. She doesn’t even know what a woman is. She has no business on the Supreme Court. She should be running the ice cream shop counter in the basement of the Joe Pedo White House.
This nutjob Millhiser is a full-on crazy suffering from a severe case of TDS and anti-Constitutionalism.
Of course, that is a given.
My point is the doofus showed right out of the gate that he couldn’t even pass the test a legal immigrant would have to pass!
Mad libs want to (1) do away with the Electoral College and (2) The Senate (e.g. why should lowly populated Wyoming have two Senators… just like New York?!).
“This blithering bastitch has no comprehension whatsoever of the Constitution and the Republican government it established.”
Hey Bruh, stop reading my mind.
That’s almost exactly what I was thinking.
