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.

President Donald J Trump is likely the most investigated individual in human history. I cannot recall anyone who’s been this deeply investigated. They have snaked him worse than anyectomy and he came out clean! The only thing they can come up with is this “novel legal theory”... “oh well... we cant get him for anything else so we need to change some laws to make them stick!” I am amazed and you better believe they’re worried. Because when DJT gets back into office he won’t need any ‘novel legal theories’ to put these dirty f@##$%s behind bars...
FOR-EH-VUR!!
Wonderful idea.
No longer possible.
I meant to say slavery was the excuse.

Unfortunately, it’s a problem for my children and grandchildren.
I'm not quite sure what you're referring to here, but if this statement is with regard to the U.S., you might want to see how General Lee felt about it.
Vox is a pox on freedom & liberty...
It is a fully funded communist propaganda tool...
You can see the rage-spittle flying as he types.
Sotomayor is in bad shape. She should retire now.
And the voter fraud in commiefornia is out of control also.
See the part that said I wasn’t sure what you were talking about?
You post can be read more than one way.
Uh-oh. Ian Millhiser doesn’t like women.
