I'd like to propose that the name of the Supreme Court be changed to the Sycophant Court

Nothing supreme about them but sycophant certainly sums up their rulings. My apologies to the sane members.

be held accountable for anything, including the N.Y. case which is going to be tossed. The court just gave a free pass to biggest crimimal & worst human being to ever sit in the W.H.

If Trump wins this Country is going to be a carbon cooy of Saudi Arabia, ruled by King Trump, his synchophants & far right wing Evangelical lunatics, not to mention his lackeys in Congress.

The court fucked over the American people big time during this term.

Changing the name of the entire Court would be unfair to the 3 liberal justices. They are still a part of the Court, even though their numbers are small.

The Sinister Six are certainly sycophants (some more than others). They've also gone rogue on a lot of things, including the divine right of kings presidential immunity decision. They are a scary bunch!

I can't help wishing that at least 2 (guess which ones) of the majority would suddenly drop dead. (Sorry if that sounds terrible, but I can't help it.) Joe would be able to replace them, and McTurtle wouldn't be able to do a damned thing to stop him. It would be so lovely.
