It's a terrible situation all around. Especially considering the anti-trans bills already coming out. I think the biggest issue is we can only vote for senators in our state, meaning it's go big or go home. You should probably remind people the importance of voting for congress.
That's what pisses me off so goddamn much about this BiDeN BaD TrUmP BaD bullshit pissing contest.
IT'S ABOUT CONGRESS AND THE JUDGES THEY PICK.
just look at the last decade. It wasn't the president doing the most damage and changing law, it was the scotus
Republicans used to go on and on about "activist judges" because that was their exact plan. Install partisan judges and have lawsuits come up in favorable locations (looking at you 5th circuit from hell) that can then work their way up to the conservative rubber stamp that is our current scotus.
Yeah. I have an uphill battle in my state, because a legitimately popular former governor is running for the GOP in the Senate position that opened up.
