      Of course, any sentient adult already knew that this was not something he could promise, or that this lawsuit would deliver. Yet, they persisted https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/06/justice-amy-coney-barrett-proves-democrats-obamacare-doomsaying-wrong/ …https://twitter.com/nycsouthpaw/status/1405572630179155969 …

      This isn’t something Dems made up; it was a Trump campaign promise: “If I win the presidency, my judicial appointments will do the right thing unlike Bush's appointee John Roberts on Obamacare.” https://twitter.com/CaseyMattox_/status/1405529806003838987 … pic.twitter.com/yjE5AUkDo0

      It’s this kind of elite condescension of the tens of millions of sentient adults who trusted Trump that explains his success

      Trump voters were not monolithic in believing this lawsuit would succeed. Democratic leaders *were* monolithic in claiming that it would. Who are the rubes in this picture?

      You are missing my point. I am still confused as to whether this was a serious case that should have worried Dems, and if it wasn’t why two conservatives Justices voted the way they did

      Occam's Razor says the reason why conservative commentators generally got this case mostly right, & Democrats unanimously got it very wrong, is that the latter were lying or lied to.

          Yes many of the Dem comments were dumb, but anyway it’s a good thing you guys run the party. I’m glad you all think the lawsuit was a joke and am looking forward to an explanation of why two Justices went along with it

          I will agree with you on one thing: When a party elects a complete maniac who slowly reshapes the party in his image, people on the other side will get increasingly paranoid about that party in ways that sometimes are very silly. Best to address the root cause there
