Did you expect to disenfranchise 50% of the voter base, without any blowback?

First, threatening judges is a little more than simple "blowback."

Second, this illustrates my complaint. As long as the process yields the result the extreme MAGA resentment class wants, they support it. But when they same process yields a result they don't like, they start threatening the decision makers.

Isn’t that why you’re supporting this ruling? Because it yields the result you want

I don't know enough about it to support it and expect it to be overturned, based on what I've read, as there is apparently precedent that the clause at issue does not apply to presidents.

Regardless, if the US Supreme Court does in fact reverse it I won't threaten them over it.

Do you ever consider political violence to be justified

What's so fascinating to me is the left is so afraid they can't beat him straight up. They have to indict him, remove him from the ballot... whatever they can do to give their side an advantage.

They. Are. Terrified.

And they are gonna lose big time.

Oh, and isn't intimidating and violence exactly what one Maxine Waters was calling for? Isn't that what was happening to one SCOTUS justice Cavanaugh? You are a bunch of ****ing hypocrites

So just to be clear: the "ends justify the means mentality" only applies to situations in which people want it to apply?
Am I doing this right?
I ask because republicanism was not intended to work, and will never work, when the ends justify the means.

We know it won't be Trump who will step up and call for the violent rhetoric and the threats to stop. It's his go to play.

If they find these people, they need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent and imprisoned for as long as the law allows.

Funny thing is you didn’t make a similar post when SCOTUS was threatened after the abortion ruling leak or the ruling being released.

We are terrified for what he might do to the country and the world, correct.

Sure I did. Such threats have no place in our society, left tor right, Dem or Rep.

I do believe, however, that the incidents of such intimidation tactics, seemingly endorsed by the leader of your party, are much more prevalent from the right than the left.

His previous tenure was a nightmare.
As to another term, for the USG, rightfully so, but not for reasons you believe.

According to the link you posted, no judge has been threatened.
law enforcement responded to a justice’s residence Thursday evening “on what appears to be a hoax report.”

While the analysis found no specific threats to the judges,

The rest of the article is a bunch of word salad and speculation.

I haven't before and can't bring myself to vote for Trump, but TDS is real.

In the country with the best economy, highest standard of living, democratic rule, and low taxes, etc, it's more than slightly red-headed to think our problems require violent solutions. Being pushed toward violent solutions is a part of the "set the factions against each other" tenet of viking warfare that's been deployed against us by the russians since 2015.
