Actually progressive or "biden is the most progressive president in recent US history" progressive? I'll take either over the alternative, but I'd love it if it was more than former than the latter.
If he promises to let Bernie Sanders pick them then I bet he'd gain whole percentage points in polls.
Can Bernie be president on Wednesdays and Thursdays?
he has pickle ball on Thursdays
Wednesdays and Fridays then.
Cmon, you know it's the latter.
Still a lot better than anything Trump would come up with.
They'd absolutely still be massive corporatists who think freedom dies if Americans can actually afford any of their basic needs.
I'll take anyone who isn't a corporate careerist at this point. The people sitting on the supreme court shouldn't be expecting to leverage it to make an exhorbitant amount of money.
At least he's talking about the views of a justice he might pick, rather than what race and sex they're going to be as though that's the most important criteria.
Yes, but he's also shown himself willing to say anything to get support and votes. He had a lot of big progressive talk during his campaign when he was against Sanders, but then dropped that facade pretty much within the first few months and started giving out corporate handjobs.
He's going to appoint Merrick Garland again.
