Let's see if the people from another thread bashing another legislator they don't like come here to trash Val.

She's right.

that at least two of the justices MAY have SOME integrity. I sus pect that would be Roberts and (amazingly) Gorsuch, who, evil though he is, seems to be squeaky clean personally.

they know they have nothing (no policies, plans, ideas, values, etc.) that would convince the electorate they deserve to win. They are not seeking to represent us in the marketplace of ideas to generate solutions to our problems, they simply want power.
