How a Donald Trump presidency could change the Supreme Court | Election 2024

If former President Donald Trump returns to the White House, he’ll probably have the power to replace any Supreme Court justice who retires. The GOP has since been projected to win a majority of seats in the U.S. Senate, according to NewsNation / Decision Desk HQ.

I’ve been a supporter of NewsNation. I had high hopes that the reporting would be unbiased. So disappointed. Do better. Please! We need you to do better. It is so important. Stick with the facts. We don’t need to know your opinions.

Good, all the gaslighting calling names did not work.

Didn’t say these things during Biden, Obama, Clinton or Carter.

[edcoad]

Biden failed to pad the court, Biden failed to kick arse.

Where’s that Professor’s keys to the White House?

Historically, U.S. constitutional protections and judicial oversight have acted as barriers against extreme government overreach. However, even in the post-9/11 period, some laws like the PATRIOT Act expanded surveillance and reduced individual privacy rights. While some Americans accepted these restrictions for the sake of safety, they also generated debate over how much freedom should be sacrificed in the name of security.
A "Reichstag event"—a reference to the 1933 Reichstag fire that Hitler used to consolidate power and dismantle democratic institutions—the idea in a modern American context would involve an incident that could be leveraged to impose severe restrictions on civil liberties or alter governmental checks and balances. This type of event could hypothetically be used to justify more centralized power or a curtailment of opposition voices, especially if the incident could be tied to domestic opposition or international adversaries. The suspected Russian-linked parcel bomb plot, which may have been a dry run for a similar attack on the U.S. and Canada, could serve as the pretext to justify extreme security measures and bypass democratic safeguards under the guise of national security.

Justices dont have anything to do with politics, so why do they have to tell stuff that is not important?

[nmc]

Her supporters deserved better. President Trump never would have walked away

[Mrinternational]

I hope Trump puts 2 black men on Supreme Court. I would like to thank all the black men who stood with their American brothers and helped make this happen. All men and women also. But especially black men for changing parties.
