Are you in favor or opposed to the Democratic Party significantly altering and packing the supreme court, eliminating the filibuster and the electoral college? Also, are you willing to accept the consequences of them doing so and whatever additional burdens may be inflicted/imposed on you personally as a result of giving them the right to do so these days?

If President Trump pushes a grossly-incompetent, corrupt, or extremist Justice upon us because he can , then packing the Supreme Court may be a necessity. Eleven justices would still give the GOP a 6-5 edge.

So, what's going to happen to you when the Democrats try to push their agenda down our throats? Are you going to be able to afford a loaf of bread? Are you going to be able to voice your opinion without fear of being persecuted or killed? Like I said, we are still being relatively nice and still content with leaving nature to determine the coarse. You don't seem to realize that you have chosen to be on the wrong side of history which is fine with me. Your senators are supposed to be wiser than they seem these days.

Did you look in the mirror when writing these words? Believers and synchophants are blind to the emperor having no clothes. Some people love a dictator and cannot see him for what he is. Such is the case with you and all other Trump followers, as The Donald carries out his plan to "get rid of the ballots," shut down debates, stuff our Courts with justices that deny our rights, shove aside the press as the enemy of the people, refuse to follow the law if it doesn't suit him, threaten to use violence and send goons to arrest and gas peaceful protesters, use government for his own private enrichment, and other projects worthy only of tyrants and their deceived, sheepish believers.

What rights of yours are being denied? You're free to speak, free to vote, free to make a living, free to defend yourself and free to own a firearm too. The only dictators that I see are on the Democratic side these days. You better start learning to play by the rules and you better start placing a higher value on the rule of law as well. You see, if we end up at war with each other, there will be no protections for you or any of your politicians and we will be free to directly engage and eliminate all of you. Dude, the only world you know is the world that we represent today. You don't know anything about living in a world like Somalia or war torn Spain or the old Soviet Union or Nazi Germany or old Russia but you're going to find out soon enough if you so choose and opt to continue on the same destructive path that you're on right now.
