Another example that Trump supporters love being lied to.  I'm sure there's a name for this condition. 

i·dol·a·try
noun
  1. the worship of idols.
     
    • extreme admiration, love, or reverence for something or someone.
      "we must not allow our idolatry of art to obscure issues of political significance"
       
      Idolatry is the worship of an idol or cult image, being a physical image, such as a statue, or a person in place of God. In Abrahamic religions, namely Judaism, Christianity and Islam, idolatry connotes the worship of something or someone other than God as if it were God.

    He [Trump] is truly a winner and as each day goes by millions upon millions of Americans will see the light! I for one only hope we can make it to 2022 without speaking Chinese.

No a problem. The "Christians" supporting trump are uniquely adept at swallowing camels so this little issue regarding worshiping idols is merely an easily digested furball!

You didn't see his speech at CPAC? Filled with lies. Calling out members of congress by name and asking to get rid of them?

 

Sadly, some are still falling for the BS. Stunning.

 

Mike Pence, as in "kill Mike Pence!", who hasn't been hung yet, is still beating the drum.  What's a death threat between friends, eh?

 

Pence pushes false election fraud claims in denouncing Democratic reform bill

Same speech, CPAC speech, very good.

Just read that he used the same speech writers he was using during his campaign. Makes sense. Still spewing the same BS.

It's pretty crazy. Because of him the party he took over lost the house, senate, and presidency. Of course he did obscenely pack the supreme court. A healthy party would have taken the chance to cleanse themselves of the human stain former president guy by convicting him for inciting insurrection. But they caved. Again!

Miller is with Trump plotting how next to destroy America. Along with Brad P. who was fired by Kushner. Kushner is apparently out. Great news!

What is court packing?

Court packing is adding more judges to a court than there are now, something that can be done on the federal level simply by passing a law.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/09/22/packing-supreme-court/

 

 Jingthing, please remind me - with reliable factual sources - when Trump and his party added more than the 9 judges that has been the norm since the mid 1800s. You know full well that he did no such thing, and then you ramp up the BS even more to say he "obscenely" packed the court. I have had a few suspensions recently for posting supposedly "questionable" and "misleading"  words that challenge the woke narrative. Your words are not questionable, they are outright lies.

Better to use an unbiased source for this.

Quote

People often use "court packing" to describe changes to the size of the Supreme Court, but it's better understood as any effort to manipulate the Court's membership for partisan ends. A political party that's engaged in court packing will usually violate norms that govern who is appointed (e.g., only appoint jurists who respect precedent) and how the appointment process works (e.g., no appointments during a presidential election).

So yes, he has been court packing.

Before one makes accusations like yours,  it's highly sdvisable to make sure you know whereof you speak. In fact "court packing" can mean either increasing the number of justices or changing the composition of the court to advance an ideological agenda.

What an obnoxious personal attack.

Cool your jets dude. 

 

 

Your narrow definition of court packing is your opinion alone. 

 

Here is broader definition explained to you.

 

But in the context of the supreme court I meant via sleazy obscene dirty trick tactics the Republicans and 45 engineered an absurd imbalance of far right wing scotus justices. Without their dirty games Merrick Garland would have been confirmed and President Biden would have had a pick. The republican party under 45 has morphed into an authoritarian party with no interest in the actual voice of the majority of voters. Because they know they can't win any federal power without dirty tricks, corrupt gerrymandering, and race baiting voter suppression.

Apparently "packing" is being applied to "stacking" by some.

Do you also get them for calling someone a liar when they obviously (and demonstrably) are not?

I can imagine that, somewhere, "packing", "stacking" and "splitting hairs" are all terms used in hair designer academies (are there hair designer academies?).

trump is indeed out of office, a situation that still brings a smile to my face every day.

 

Especially when he starts whining about about the fact President Biden kicked his posterior in the free, fair and above all democratic November election as he did at the cpac event.

"Kushner is apparently out."
