    Doesn’t they currently have the power? Democrats have had tons of opportunities to make sure republicans could not remove them. Why do you think it will be different this time?

      No. Republicans control the House. Democrats cannot pass a bill without their support.

      I don’t mean to be a jerk, but why don’t you know that?

          They were commenting with confidence about the current political situation. My first thought was non American, but their statement is quite definitive for someone that doesn’t have a basic understanding of our legislative process.

          Like I said, I wasn’t trying to be a jerk. I really wasn’t.

          I live in a democratic society so I don’t know all the ins and outs of your 2party dictatorshipin in that shithole country

          Where might that be? And if that’s how you feel, why do you care so much about our politics?

            What does it matter?

            Well I care because the US elections effects the world.

            It’s also quite common to have a interest in things even if it does not directly effect me personally.

            Such as the current ongoing genocide sponsored by your sitting president.

            Lol admin is a baby.

      They need to win both houses. Obama was the last one to have that and he put his cards into the ACA. You really seem to only get one these days. As far as most people were concerned Roe v. Wade was settled and a long standing precedent that in no sane world could be overturned. I don’t think many people imagined we’d be here today. Let’s not blame the victims either. The left didn’t do this.

      No. It wasn’t the legislature or the executive that removed those rights, it was the supreme court, stuffed with conservatives by the republicans.
