...is repaired.

How about we as Democrats stop trying to be fair and balanced in the face of a GOP who rapes, pillages, and burns our Democracy. Trump himself alone has demonstrated he is capable, willing, and likely guilty of all three. Then there are the GOP enablers.

For example, if they "steal" yet another SCOTUS seat a month before the 2020 election, IMHO a hypocritical reversal of their position when ignoring and stealing the Obama Merrick Garland nomination to the court, then our response should be in a Biden administration should be "fight fire with fire" and enlarge the court to restore BALANCE. Or, in other words, let's STACK the court to RESTORE BALANCE in response to their Trump years of stacking the courts.
