I'm sorry that you don't understand the Electoral College. It's only been around since the 1780's. But now you understand why we are a constitutional republic and not a democracy. And they never said that they would never overturn it. It was reported that Kavanaugh gave private assurances that he wouldn't vote to overturn Roe v Wade, but those were unconfirmed. In fact, an email was "leaked" where he said it wasn't settled law. But you are mad because you believe everything the corporate media tells you.
You people act like this is the first Supreme Court decision to have ever been overturned. It is not. Win more elections and you too can have somebody nominate Supreme Court Justices. Good luck in future elections.
We can talk circles and circles about this. But I really don't feel like it, since it's just retreading the same shit all over.
1. We live in a representative democracy. You can continue to claim it's a "constitutional republic" but that's straight up false. Why?
In a representative democracy, you have as many representatives equal to both power and total people being represented. This is mostly accurate within the house of representatives, and senators.
2nd. the electoral collage was
intended not not have gerrymandering in mind. Something the Republican party profusely protects at all costs. Gerrymandering allows for over representation of a particular group.
The people who made the constitution choose the electoral collage as the best choice for the time. Since trying to get representatives to know certain things who where several states away in Washington, wasn't exactly possible to react in a timely manor.
3. Madison (the writer of the constitution and bill of rights) blatantly called it a democracy. Along with Alexander Hamilton. Lincon used constitutional republic and democracy interchangeably in his speech.
So in other words, just be honest that you don't support a democracy. Because even the people who setup this country, called it a democracy.
You people act like this is the first Supreme Court decision to have ever been overturned. It is not.
This is the first supreme court decision made by a truly rogue court. Even when they made controversial rulings, people accepted it even if they didn't like it. Because we at least could at the time believe that the system was bipartisan. We can't now. Because a president, the ONLY president, to elect 33% of the supreme court justices in HIS favor. 2 of them,shouldn't have even happened. I'll just restate what I said in the past. the first judge trump choose. Only happened because the Republican senate stonewalled Obama's pick for 9 entire months. citing that people should vote their next justice.
And the second pick. was rushed through by and with the Republican senate in almost less than 2 weeks before the election was finalized. The Republican's explanation? Oh we got to file vacant seats as fast as possible.
The amount of hypocrisy on this case is absurd. Either Obama's pick should of gone through if we believed in the speed rule. Or, Biden should of got to choose the last supreme court justice, as a result of the "people voting"
The courts got straight up rigged. If you cannot agree on at least that aspect alone. Then I'm done wasting my time talking to you. If you can't see the hypcrosisy in this, nor how it was rigged into Republican favor. Then you just care what you like, and that's it, no principles, no honesty, no integrity.
