You chose 3 of the 9 members, so who can you blame when they rule against you?
Remember the republican rule. It's only politically motivated when you lose.
When they rule against voting rights, civil rights, and reproductive rights it's "doing the RIGHT thing".
The far RIGHT thing.
Donnie, you need to realize the court is politically motivated for party and social issues. Not so much for your individual needs.
Besides, they don't need you. They're SC Justices for life.
