That's an easily disprovable claim based on recent history. Roe v. Wade would not have been turned over if Hillary had been appointing SC Justices instead of Trump appointing them. You're far too cynical.
- cudgy 4y agoThis is too simplistic. Perhaps there would be other poor decisions made by the Hillary judges that mitigates the Roe v Wade decision.

You've described cynicism in a nutshell. That adds nothing to this conversation. Progressive leaning judges do not have a history of taking away basic human rights. The reason people lost a basic human right that was protected for decades is because of a shift in the makeup of the Supreme Court. That shift happened due to who was elected as president. Which proves that elections and who you vote for does matter.
- cudgy 4y agoFine. Ignore the obvious point that picking a single matter that judges consider as a sole focus of efficacy contributes nothing to the conversation.
