This is why all of the praise for them and many of the judicial picks at the federal level were a joke. I don’t know why so many people here got brainwashed into thinking a conservative think-tank had their interests at heart.

It’s all a con to improve the lives of the richest and most powerful Americans at the expense of the rest of us. Putting those judges in only solidifies their influence. That’s why CCP McConnell pushed them through no worries. It doesn’t matter how many “judges” Trump put on the bench when most of them are hacks for a cause contra to the American dream.

Because we had never heard of the Federalist Society before. Politics have gotten so complex, due to all of these influences.

The Federalist Society has been around for almost forty years. If people hadn’t heard about it, they should have done the research and pushed back on all these nominees sooner. The swamp breeds more swamp. Ignorance isn’t an excuse for failure in this regard.

Don't confuse reason for excuse. I gave you the reason. The root of the problem is the political ignorance of the masses, just like the swamp likes it. From that ignorance, we have this idealized "Once Trump is in, it will all be better" that we are seeing. This is just following the logical course of action and reaction from the starting point. There is no condemnation or blame, no shirking of responsibility in the observation. We are learning now

Now, we did fail in our responsibility to be self educated, so we should take on that responsibility, and we are by spreading what we have learned and by getting ready for all the crap we are about to go through.

The blame game is the liberal's favorite tool, but it isn't really useful. hold people responsible for their actions, and leave the acrimony for the softies.
