good question.

If so, and she been to Chinatown in SanFran, then Nancy Pelosi killed her. If a restartant in NYC, DeBlazio killed her. If she self isolated in DC, Trump killed her.

More importantly though, do we know how RBG self identified? Male or female? Gay or straight? White or black?

For some, it is tribal bloodsport.

For them, the most important aspect of tribal self-identification is "in power" or "out of power."

from what im gathering on the unternuts, you have 2 options.

a) the jackboots of communism stomping on your neck forever

b) the rise of the american taliban, removing all womens rights, gay rights and hanging black people.


may you choose wisely.

According to Mr. Perfect, one of those is Republican, the other is Democrat. But I can't remember what he said about which is which.

Pretty weird you finding yourself in Mr. P's camp..... but this is 2020.... I think your timing is impeccable!

Trump should have thrown the media some red meat and said "She's dead? She just died? Do you know if she heard my speech tonight?"

RBG didn't go far enough.

I'd be her biggest fan if she was able to make abortion legal up until the 163rd trimester.

Nope. Both side in hysterics doesn't work anymore.

The neo-taliban vote was Kavanugh. That's what justified taking the dorkiest, squarest guy in the galaxy and smearing him as some sort of quintessential alcoholic sex pervert running rape gangs from a tender age; with zero evidence, and we had to sit through that pretending that there was enough room for doubt to justify forever defaming him.

That was the swing vote.

Some believe in tax and spending cuts, some believe otherwise.
Some believe there is no constitutional right to an abortion, some believe the opposite.
Some think guns should be totally legal, some believe they should be totally illegal.

Etc
