By republicans. Clearly you've never had a civics course or you wouldn't say stupid shit that shows you don't understand how the US federal government functions.
I'm well aware of how the US government functions, dipshit. You're saying that because the results of your failed strategy are apparent.
You're really showing off that "understanding" too. Keep it up comrade.
Clearly you don't.
You don't 'reinforce' a law when there is established legal precedent because, there is legal precedent.
That's like making more laws saying murder is illegal.
You accellerationists have such a chronic lack of understanding how this government functions.
You're the only one bringing up an idea of "reinforcement".
On the other hand, you do absolutely legislate law when abortion protections only had a SCOTUS case protecting them, especially since it was one that they'd been nibbling at for decades. Which is part of the reason that it'd been a topic for decades, and a campaign promise of Obama. One he decided later to just forget about.
It's always funny to see the shitlibs show off the fantasy they construct to protect their sad worldview.
Look around at the US. This is your doing. You guys won. You drove the politics since the 90's - and this is the result. None of this was a surprise to anyone but you.
I'm bringing up the correct terms here. When the supreme court decided something was legal there's zero reason to reinforce those legal issues as they are settled law. Every conservative on the court also confirmed this was settled law during their confirmation hearings. They obviously lied. But you can't legislate based off of Calvinball.
Oh fuck off dude. I'm a shit lib? You guys don't even fucking vote during the primaries so your candidates never make the general elections. All people like you do is snipe on the sidelines and never participate.
People like you are literally why the left loses so goddamn always.
Sorry to burst your bubble, shitlib, but I am registered as a Democrat precisely to vote in the primaries, which I always do.
The point is that Biden could've made it unrepealable, but didn't
How? By what mechanism could he prevent the supreme court from overturning established legal understanding? Because that's not a thing the president gets to do, like what the fuck are you even talking about?
Court packing, among others. Something the Democrats, who controlled both houses and the Presidency, chose not to do.

That's not something the president can do, that's a power of Congress. Thank you for proving my point.
Are you unaware that Biden was elected with both houses of Congress in 2020?
That you don't understand what political parties are, or . . .?
So you don't understand that the executive branch doesn't control the legislative is what you're saying. You're asking why the president didn't do something the president can't do because only Congress can, and you're also pretending the democratic party is exactly as in lock step as the republican party (which is either stupid or disingenuous to the point of bad faith) so I can only conclude you're either participating in bad faith or don't actually know what the fuck you're talking about in the first place.
Oh, I see - you're busy pretending that the President isn't the leader of his party, and can't use the bully pulpit. Or that Biden didn't explicitly reject that, as the source I provided shows.
I gotcha. Can I ask what the point of making this fantasy world for yourself to live in is? Owning the tankies, or . . . ? Because it's just making you lose your supposed political goals.
There you go thinking the way republicans behave and treat the office applies exactly to Dems again. Obama barely got the fuckin ACA through Congress with a supermajority so your position that the president leads the party is pretty goddamn stupid. Only republicans do that demagogue shit, so we're back to you being bad faith or ignorant.
Again, all you're doing is making a case for why voting for the Democratic Party is a bad idea.
These are literally your arguments that the Democrats are supposedly incapable of doing anything. Not mine.
Jesus Christ, you ever get tired running those goalposts all over the fuckin place? Like taking to a fucking fox news viewer. At this point I'm convinced you're both bad faith and quite ignorant, so congratulations on being a republican water carrier I guess.
Buddy, I've worn out more foot leather going door to door for the Dems than your mom has on her Dom costume.
You're the one arguing the Democrats can't do anything. You wonder then why people don't vote for them?
Typical liberal nonsense, thinks politics is just an excuse to show they're a better class of person (even if they have to make it up). Nothing but secular Calvinism.
