What can actually be done about SCOTUS before they destroy our country?

[Murphyb849]

[Demsrule86]

1. Elect Democrats at the midterm.

[ananda]

11. *This*

Then we can codify Roe and pass some more
beneficial legislation.

[Demovictory9]

18. elect Dems at state and local level, school boards, dog catcher, every office

[LuckyCharms]

2. Overwhelming victories in the mid-terms.

Which I'm actually optimistic will happen.

[spooky3]

4. I think we will take at least two Senate seats. Not sure about

The House.

3. "Vote like your life depends on it because it does."

[PXR-5]

5. Get Dems out to vote!

Repugs always vote, especially the old cranky ones.

We must GOTV!!!

(Get Out The Vote)

Sign up for door knocking, they will give you friendly doors of known Dems to visit.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

9. Ha!!!

I'm a cranky old Democrat who is going to vote like my nation's security depends on it, because it does.

6. Realistically? Nothing.

Nothing at all.

The time for this was 2016, it was the last hope we had and we failed. We failed to convince enough people to vote for the most qualified person to ever run for the office against the least.

We could go back further to 2000, when our guy actually did win but was denied the office and we just let it go.

[RockRaven]

7. Increase the House/Senate majority. If Biden were delivered a judiciary reform bill which

included expanding SCOTUS, he would sign it. So get that bill onto his desk. In order to do that, we need more Dems in both houses (because not every single one in either house will vote yes, but most will).

8. FIFTY FOUR OR MORE -- GOTV

12. Expanding the court is the only definitive solution

Electing Democratic majorities who support killing the filibuster and codifying all the rights - voting, reproductive, marriage, etc.- that SCOTUS has stripped away is the next best option.

[rurallib]

13. I agree and with 13 districts it makes sense to expand the court

to fit the reality of the 21st century.

[gladium et scutum]

16. which will only work in the short term

A Repub Congress and a Repub Pres can take exactly the same action.

[Fiendish Thingy]

17. Yes, but each expansion dilutes the power of each individual Justice

So I say bring it on.

[BannonsLiver]

14. Hope Thomas and Alito drop dead.

[roamer65]

15. 1932 level landslide.
