Someone started drinking early today
Oh for fucks sake. It’s you who has to be drunk to tell us that Biden and the dems are handling the campaign well.
They’re as sloppy as they were with Clinton, or even more so and without any other choice that makes them kinda responsible for trump leading the polls. They are relying on people with IQ over 80 who know that the only right choice is not trump, but there are a lot of people who still need to be convinced and they are doing the opposite.
What does teaching the Bible in schools have to do with Biden or the dems?
I completely understand your frustrations, trust me. This is a state issue which I have no doubt will get kicked up to the SC.
Even if you had the next greatest democratic nominee, that wouldn’t affect the situation regarding this post.
Isn’t Biden the sitting president of a country in which Oklahoma is located?
Good question. It’s a judicial issue not an executive one. It’s also a state issue and not a federal one. There are no King’s in the USA.
I think you're wrong on both fronts here. The executive branch executes the law. The First Amendment is being violated. That isn't a state law, but a violation of federal law. Democrats need wins to fix it but they ran a terrible candidate like in 2016.
You are absolutely correct that it is a First amendment, federal law, being violated and that the executive branch has a role enforcing it.
As I said however, we are a land of precedent and it’s up to the judicial interpretations of the First amendment. Historically, this is how these matters have always been handled..
As far as what could Biden do.. well I’m not sure if it would make much difference.
Probably some other things that I’m not thinking of right now since I’m drinking beer but you get the idea
Didn't the Supreme Court just say Biden could execute the Supreme Court justices for being terrorist and he'd have immunity?
Well, yeah. Sinking down to their level makes us no better really. Not that I don’t enjoy thinking about that
… yet
So against n, how is this Biden and the Dems fault? Why inot the people who are pushing for this?
Polls show Trump's lead widening. Biden has failed for a week now to show voters that he hasn't beat medicare. No drugs or alcohol here... Just straight up reality. You'd have to be on drugs to think otherwise, unless he steps aside.
Schools have tried this bullshit in the past and have been beat at the Supreme Court level. The only thing that can stop this is once again the Supreme Court - which has nothing to do with the dems.

Couldn’t Biden nominate more judges and maybe temporarily get the institution that wants to crown trump under control?
Then what’s to stop the next incumbent from doing that until we have 1,000 justices? The US is a nation that loves to establish precedent so I can see why no one wants to mess with the issue.
There does need to be reform but that has to come from Congress. They have been a bit busy sharing pictures of hunter bidens penis lately to give a shit about things that matter to their constituents.
Well if he doesn’t do nothing the next incumbent will not need any justices anymore. Desperate times call for desperate measures and thought out reforms might have to wait until there is no real and imminent threat of authoritarianism taking over. The time for reforms was in the 80’s and 90’s Now its time for consequences because those didn’t happen.
A tale as old as time (or Biden)
