Vice Presidential Debate 2020

And they shouldn't have screwed with the rules. But again, where does this stop? Republicans can stop it right now and wait until after the election (if they win) to nominate ACB. What do you suppose the chances of that are?

Dems were discussing packing the court before Amy Barrett.

Before RBG died? I haven't heard that.

DISLIKE AND "UPSET" ARE TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT EMOTIONS.
If more people realized this, we would all be better off.

Are we going to quibble over linguistics now? There are varying degrees of either and I imagine they overlap somewhere. Like when you dislike my use of the word "upset" and are upset enough to reply in all caps.

 

[hog88]

Probably, but it's hard to sink lower than we already are.

LOL We haven't seen anything yet. Every 4 years the crop of candidates will get worse.

The media has made the job so unattractive that no one other than megalomaniacs even want it.

We were much lower from 2009-2017 and I would expect even lower than that if harris takes over

Yes before

I remember the topic coming up last year. Was talked about some on here too. Probably find it in search, but I'm too lazy right now.

Let’s not forget Dotard Donny!

Or Captain Bone Spurs.

 

[NorthDallas40]

So you wouldn't be upset if the democrats had done exactly what the republicans are doing now?

Upset? No. Because based on our history it’s exactly what I would expect them to do. I’d be upset that a Justice got wrapped up in their own hubris and forced the situation.

So why would you be upset when it’s the completely expected course of action?

I did that for your sake. Glad you caught it. Adults can and should be able to control both emotions.

 

[NorthDallas40]

Or Captain Bone Spurs.

Oh yeah forgot about that one! Very fourth grade-ish too!

Democrats look at packing the Supreme Court to pack the vote - CNNPolitics

.. this was May 2019

 

[Y9 Vol]

I "dislike" most of what the left does, but if I let it "upset" me I would spend my life like LG.

Nobody deserves that.

I don't see how your expectations necessarily relate to mood. I expect my friends and family members will eventually fall ill and die but can I not rightly be upset when that happens?

Why let politics upset you? We run our country on 2-4 year cycles (our biggest weakness) so seldom does one parties actions last long term in their entirety.

What?!

Except for SCOTUS appointments I guess.

 

[Wafflestomper]

We all eventually get sick and die, yes? Presumably you expect this to happen. So when it does happen is it reasonable to be upset?

True.

Your original reply was do I think it’s fair to replace her. Yes it is. This dialog is not related to the original discussion point.
