      "The norm destruction is a given." Oh. Okay. So, do we want the judges he's appointing? Not if the price of the judges is GOP control of the Senate enabling and deepening the destruction of those norms. Also, the goal should be to put a stop to the destruction in 2020.https://twitter.com/philipaklein/status/1103092690114301952 …

      This is not a live question right now. Trump is president. The norm destruction is a given. So the relevant question is whether we want the judges he’s going to be appointing regardless to be good. https://twitter.com/Morning_Joe/status/1102911042789744640 …

      I’m with you as far as opposing Trump and I have left the GOP. But there isn’t a single D currently in the 2020 circus who I could bring myself to vote for. I wish there was one, but so far nope.

      That's the problem with Tom's argument. He thinks Democrats will salvage whatever "destruction" is going on now, but will they? Look at their response to the emergency declaration. It's not, "Hey, he can't do this. It's wrong!" It's, "I can't wait until we're in power and do it!"

      Steve, I promise you that if President Eric Holder tries to add seats to the United States Supreme Court, I will object to it. Until then, I prefer to focus on the wolves closer to the sled.

      You do realize there is already one declared candidate floating the same idea, right? Will it concern you if others follow suit?

      Replying to @baseballcrank @redsteeze and

      Sure. Right now I’m concerned about the guy who thinks that Matthew Whitaker should’ve been the attorney general of the United States. And two thinks that he can order the US government to halt mergers of companies that criticize him. I mean, hypothetically.

      If your big concern is former attorneys general, perhaps Holder should worry you.

      At some point, you will have to deal with the reality of the danger we’re in, not the hypothetical of the danger tomorrow or how angry you are about the danger that could’ve been yesterday but wasn’t.

      We are indeed facing an existential danger: that Trump will continue to erode conservatism & usher in an era of Democratic power, in which the real permanent damage will be done.

          So you’re a yes on Trump in 2020 despite his anti-Semitism? Because you fear the left?

          Permenant damage such as ensuring all Americans have access to healthcare, education, and economic mobility in a system which doesn’t punish or condemn them for being poor, sick, or under-educated? Wow that’s so much worse than Trump. *clutches pearls “The horror!”

          If that’s what it takes for the Republicans to learn you can’t just blow up the constitution to try to get a few judges, so be it.

          @baseballcrank It’s actually the complicit, enabling @GOP, & the complicit, enabling right-wing pundits & press who own that. The era of D power is coming. Accept your part in making that happen. Of course, when that time comes, you’ll be crying for bipartisan cooperation.

          Then why are Congressional Republicans so unwilling to say a word against him and it, other than a few folks regularly and maybe a few more every now and then?
