    Why wouldn’t they just keep pretending to give a shit instead of actually stacking the court and putting a manufactured case up? They did the thing. They caught the car. Now they’re dealing with the fallout.

          All it takes is one bad election before we’re in a fascist theocracy. They don’t care if they’ve given the game away because they’ve changed the rules so they actually have a good chance at winning.

          Thinking that the GOP is on its way out is a very dangerous way to view things.
