Factually, that’s what he did during his time in office as well. I’m not sure what they thought had changed.

    I wish every election could be this easy

    Remember to still vote, there was a time when too many people just didn’t because it was assured Hillary would win.

    Roe V. Wade was appealed and many women are dead now as a result

      I know that the Republican party made this happen, but Democrats are absolutely complicit in letting it happen.

      Obama promised to codify Roe v Wade when he had a super majority, and he just didn’t. Why didn’t he?

      Ruth Bader Ginsberg could have retired and let us set a better judge into the Supreme Court, and yet the Dems somehow couldn’t look one presidential term into the future and try to have a contingency plan. Why?

        Obama never had a supermajority. He got close but peaked at 59 senators in the senate and one in hospital. One shy of 60 is not enough.
