While true in general, I can't think of any unjust laws that bind the President. In fact, Trump has shown that there's not enough laws that rein in the President. Stuff like the Presidential Records Act not actually having any penalties or enforcement mechanisms (besides impeachment) are really giant oversights.

Not true, they passed Obamacare in that window. I remember it was a rush to get… i think the last Kennedy brother to vote on it before he died and they lost the advantage.

Sure bud. I'm a Republican troll. Don't worry about going through my comment history to learn a shred about who I am or what I stand for.

You think I'm not aware they'd try to repeal it? Trifectas are rare so it'd be some work to pass a law repealing it. It'll die in a chamber or get vetoed. It took a Republican trifecta just to end the Individual Mandate of the ACA, but the ACA is otherwise still in effect. But even if it only took a few years for Republicans to repeal an act granting the right to an abortion, at least they tried directly addressing the issue instead of shrugging and going "well that's that."

Yes, it'd be a lot of back and forth at the federal level for a while until people got sick of it and an Amendment actually made it to ratification. Until then, Amendments are practically impossible. Over 10,000 Amendments have been proposed since founding, but only 27 have been ratified. We can't even get the Equal Rights Amendment ratified, despite its popularity. So what makes you think 37 states would vote to ratify an Abortion Amendment? Would you also have been a naysayer in '64 when Johnson signed the umpteenth Civil Rights Act into law?

Don't get me wrong. I want an Amendment too. An Amendment is the strongest form of protection. But it's also got a very slim chance of happening within our lifetimes. I'll celebrate the moment I hear of its proposal, but I'm also not holding my breath for ratification.

I'm sorry, WHO is trying to demotivate people?

"Republicans will overturn everything anyway so fuck it why try"

GTFO here with that. Abortion was a losing platform in multiple states this last cycle - If we had locked it into law on the federal level, yes Republicans would overturn it day one but they'd have had to do it in front of the whole world on the national level removing any wishy washy state by state bullshit argument that they love using to compartmentalize themselves from every evil thing the right does.

As if they wouldn't do that anyway if they didn't have the court locked down already. Please quit acting like we can appease Republicans into acting reasonable.

This. This is when things start burning.

At this point, I won't be happy unless Hunter Biden is the next Supreme Court Justice.

For them it's a form of fascistic kayfabe.

The fact that he's an uninspiring and largely disappointing president is what makes dark Brandon funny. If we wanted to laugh about a president who really does act like a demonic entity, we'd just vote for the other guy.
