Ponder that for a few minutes. Join me in pondering that.
We failed to provide her about 90,000 votes in that election. In just three states. Those who voted for Jill Stein or who did not vote at all in that election are responsible for what the three SCOTUS justices nominated by Donald Trump have done.
In 2022 and 2024, let's please not make such a horrendous mistake again, OK?

Its going to be a bad decade full of turmoil. Many are going to needlessly die. Millions of women (and men too) were just given a death sentence.
Nobody seems to realize how fucked we are.

(15,476 posts)It's extremely likely that the Republicans would have kept the Senate in 2018 had Hillary won. It's also possible that she would have been defeated in 2020, giving them 3 Justices anyway.
Note: I'm not saying any of this is likely, except for them keeping the Senate in 2018.
