A message to leftists who are hesitant about voting for Centrist Dems: just vote for the Dems. A Dem Senate prevents Trump from appointment Thomas and Alito’s replacements. If a Dem becomes President in two years they could give Dems a 5-4 majority

Roe v. Wade can come back. All the damage SCOTUS has done can gradually be reversed.

Ngl roe v wade will only come back with Congress writing it into law. The Supreme Court won’t touch it again, and if they do it won’t be in our life times. So elect people into congress you know will do something, not a fence sitter who will use their entire representative seat doing what establishment tells them to

Alito and Thomas are getting close to retirement age, a Dem president could appoint their replacements and make it 5-4

And a dem president could appoint a middle of road nobody who votes with more right leaning justices. Vote for people who represent your views, not to win the sporting contest

And the world could blow up. That’s just a random hypothetical.

It’s really not. There’s been a fair bit of recent Supreme Court rulings where more left justices agree with right, right justices agree with left, unanimous decisions, one dissenter, etc. Supreme Court is highly politicized now but it’s not entirely supposed to be and it’s been shocking us a bit with its decisions. Don’t vote for a piece of shit just because they’re a Democrat and maybe a dem president next cycle and maybe need to appoint a new Justice.
