We need term limits on every government position… PERIOD
c. j. macq we are a Republic not a Democracy.
I agree
@Allie Hughes There are worse things out there than just threatening a persons career though. If you place a justice which one party has significant “dirt” on then they’re as compromised as any other politician. I think one of the biggest issues is that the constitution needs serious amendments that actually promote progress and not endless corruption.
@c. j. macq You forgot to mention random lie detector tests for integrity that are televised for your entertainment.
I agree and especially for the Presidential spot, 4 years only and one time only!
the people hire you. the people fire you. lets start with hospital prices and drug prices and work our way down to insurance.
i think that is what POTUS is doing.Plus he signed 3 EO’s on health and medical issues.
If you want an independent objective judiclal system, you shouldn’t let politicians appoint your judges !
🎲 One third of all US Presidents appointed a Supreme Court Justice in an election year. Trump is exercising his right to do so as well.

🌈 RUTH herself stated a president has the constitutional right in consultation with the Senate to choose the next Supreme Court Justice nominee. At 1 min 54 second into video.
Washington Post also reported this on September 7th 2016.

@M Hartung You’re the one that responded to me telling me we aren’t a democracy right after I said we aren’t a democracy. So whose the moron?
@Jennifer Harris but maybe they shouldn>t be.
*Every single Democrat should begin their opening statement by quoting Lindsey Graham, like he asked of them…*
“I want you to use my words against me. If there’s a Republican president in 2016 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say Lindsey Graham said let’s let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination.”
*“If an opening comes in the last year of President Trump’s term, and the primary process has started, we’ll wait to the next election.”*
We’re way past the “primary process”; we’re well into the GENERAL ELECTION already! Lindsey Graham’s word is worthless, and the Democrats should take this opportunity to illustrate that fact, and make it known to the SC voters.
@devorah711
💧How did Democrats influence the pandemic spread? First they called Trump a racist when he tried to shut down the border to China. He compromised allowing millions of tourist to celebrate Chinese New Year around the world. Second, Democrat Mayors encouraged hundreds of thousands of protesters for 4 months allowing the twenty-year-old to bring home this disease to their 50 year old parents and 70 year old grandparents. Third, Democrats were not honest about the death numbers and failed to tell the whole story including the fact that only 10,000+ died, the rest of that number had underlying causes and the doctors cannot unequivocally state the coronavirus contributed towards their deaths.
@devorah711
📮 If this was so deadly in January why didn’t the World Health Organization call it a pandemic then instead of waiting until middle of March when 100 countries had been infected? If this was so deadly then, why did the World Health Organization state the ordinary citizens did not need to wear masks out in public? If this was so deadly then, why did the World Health Organization tell Trump that it was unnecessary to shut the border down in January when he initially suggested this but got backlash from the Democrat Party who called him a racist? Every country in the world got its directions from the World Health Organization.
devorah711 pfft standing up to anyone except Trump if reps actually had a spine the impeachment would have gone through…
And it still won’t do a damn bit of good. She is getting in, quit crying about it and just accept it.
Sparky Sparky Ok , thank you for sharing.
I’m from a large family of doctors and nurses. Let’s agree, That this virus gets under control and people stop dying.
This virus will act any body who has a weak immune system.
I have nothing else to say!
GOD BLESS AMERICA 🇺🇸
UNITED WE STAND!
DIVIDED WE FALL!
Wow, Senators working on a Federal Holiday. The Republicans are trying to get this confirmation asap..
@citruscider no it is Democrats screwing up your stimulus.
@Matthew to them it is Columbus Day. Lol
@c. j. macq not illegal but despicable and hypocritical based on what they all said over 4 and a half years ago.
@Matthew Indigenous Peoples Day is gay.
And they will get it done for sure .
Lack of national healthcare is an international embarrassment.
@Richard Kendall We have plenty of social institutions that you benefit from:social security,the army,medicare,public college,just shut up already. Expanding our ENORMOUS social welfare programs to include healthcare is good for the nation. You being a lapdog to a power structure that prefers your death over your life is irredeemable. Quit failing as a human,it’s embarrassing.
@Richard Kendall socialist europe *lol* have you ever left your mountain?
@Lephas Nobody asked you to like it, quite the opposite, if you don’t like it, quit worrying about it.
@Matthew go figure..your country is just about circling the drain, but you’re still no. 1 at looking down on others. we have roads and bridges over here that don’t collapse under our arses, everyone is fed and housed, we don’t stand in line for hours for unemployment benefits (or to vote, for that matter), we’Re not uneducated and obese, and on top of that, our tax dollars aren’t stolen from us to fly orange assholes (who don’t pay taxes) to the hospital..we have excellent healthcare for everybody.
Medicare. Medicaid.
Why don’t they just replay McConnell’s speech against Merick Garland over and over?
@New Profile are you kidding!! that is a very uninformed comment from where, Fox News, the neo-nazi sites. Don’t know how old you are, but you missed your History Classes. In 1982, President Ronald Reagan appointed Scalia as a judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. In 1986 (Yes, that is 1986… 34 years ago!!), he was appointed to the Supreme Court by Reagan and was unanimously confirmed by the Senate, becoming the Court’s first Italian-American justice.
@Kaiser Mayhem Yes, just like those idiots that declared they hated Obamacare but loved affordable care. Last 3 and a half years has been a celebration of stupidity.
@Jonathan DeBusk I remember McConnell told Harry Reid, Not to eliminate the filibuster and that dumb arse still eliminated it giving the repubs all the ammo they needed to put who ever they wanted on the court. You can thank ol Harry Reid for that one, not the republicans.
@S.A. L. Hard no, I don’t want a socialist country.
@Jon Collins You mean a moderate country, if you mean under Biden.
I can honestly say I’m one of the millions that really did not care about this madness maybe because we felt we had nothing to say anyway in changing politicians views. Unfortunately now we have seen what our indifference has cost us, I’m not singling out Democrat’s its Republicans also,. Everything that has happened in the last 3.5 years has proven that politicians believe they can do whatever they choose, the only way to stop this, is to vote them out of office and bring in new blood, perhaps people who will think of the American people first before proposing bills that aren’t representative of the American people’s view.
Amerikkkan’s govt has NEVER NOT BEEN AN ILLEGAL SUPER-MAFIA.
(By contrast, everything the nazis did was technically “legal”! YIKES!)
Yes, vote out the ones who try to take an excessive amount of our money in taxes and the ones who wont protect our freedoms.
Facts: this not Donald trump country it’s your country

@Matthew
But WHAT are you saying?
What is your beef?
Do you even know??
@Daniel Kolbin right?
Their biggest crime is taking our money and not doing their jobs.
@Jimmy Bagodonuts right?
@Barbara West With ironclad proof but these folks are..,behind.
@evol1 Dumb comment.
DO you nit get that his policies will actually give you a better life?
More money you can keep and protected freedoms.
What – pray tell – do the Dems offer?
America, this is your moment, vote wisely, don’t let yourself down 🇺🇸
@Tessmage Tessera He will win by a landslide. Presidents are selected not elected. Time to get with the program.

Daddy Trump You cant even answer my question
Daddy Trump so your gona reply “TypIcal LibèrAl” I’m not even a registered democrat lmao 😂

Cindy McCain runs an organization that is supposed to prevent sex trafficking https://youtu.be/oiGi-VnmbJU?t=81 . Yet she knew all about Epstien and was unable to stop him while being married to some one so connected like McCain.
Thank God

You have a number of Republicans working hard for all of us.
To stop the robbing, corruption and attacks on our freedoms.
It is the Dems who do these things.
You are a loser because you cant see who’s working on your behalf.
Four more years of liberal tears 🖕😆
The richest country in the world without a functioning health care system. If you don’t have the money you die.
@The Orange Pekoe Teabag Band Seems to me they went through legal channels. I never said that demo’s were communist. I did say that some of the demo’s in congress are brain dead.

Crazy we have 3 weeks left.
@Fuzzy Navel When did you dream.that!
@Harriet Honaker yea and if you couldn’t tell were not in the least bit worried about it.
@alexis devitre naw we real homeboy. Your just shocked by our numbers but it will pass.
That’s the sort of spirit and leadership this country needs. Thank you Senator!
Why do we have liberal judges and conservative judges when their only job is to interpret the law and constitution in an unbiased manner
b/c the SOLE REASON COURTS WERE INVENTED WAS TO BE A PLACEBO TO PREVENT THE LITTLE PEOPLE FROM REVOLTING: courts FOOL the public into thinking they have civilized, non-violent ways to obtain justice. (They don’t.)
LITERALLY the existence of courts is criminal under current laws!
That’s what conservative judges do.
Steph J not entirely true , it definitely goes both ways come on now…
@SleepingDog
Sure, some can be flawed or even corrupt.
But they tend NOT to try to legislate.
They are more likely to stay in their lane.
That’s what we want.
Sleeping Dog…..that’s a good question. My answer would be it’s our political system we have. Ones either a Democrat, Republicans, or independent. By appointing more of a conservative or liberal court, the thought is which party affiliations will make decisions based on political beliefs. I tend to believe this is true.
Canada is hoping all Americans will do the right thing to protect their institutions and save THEIR country.🇨🇦🍁

And Australia too!
canada needs to worry abut their commie country falling apart.
Yea Americans sit back and stay comfortable, don’t forget to vote

“This isn’t Joe Biden’s country…”
It is yours!
Heather Royes, Trump is the one ” we the people” elected to lead us. It’s his country, it’s my country, it’s everyone’s country. If Biden gets elected it’ll be China’s country because they already gave Creepy Joe a 1.5 billion dollar bribe. They own him.
@Ted Aspane Four more years of liberal tears 🖕😆
