Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

I thought that Clarence Thomas rarely speaks. I would venture, he spoke more in this case than in a couple years of him on the bench.

Overturning USSC cases is actually a huge issue because - in my opinion - it was never meant to happen. The entire logic of the Supreme Court is that these justices are almost perfect and they don't make mistakes when it comes to constitutional law. But then the Supreme Court got dragged into the slavery issue with Plessy vs Ferguson and it all went downhill from there. Politics destroyed the Court as an institution, and we've been dealing with it for over a century now.

I think the abysmal economic outlook and constant Chyna virus bullshit blunts any gains the left would get from rallying behind Roe. What I think would really happen would be the west coast and NY/CT/MA going super blue, but everywhere else pushing right as to go all in on abortion means sticking to all the other crazy progressive things. Ironically, this happening under Joepedo is more beneficial than under Trump
Hopefully it also throws a wrench hard into white women's superiority complex, but that's a tall order.

The abortion issue is the Republican version of gun control. Gun control has long been the albatross around the neck of the Dems, during the Obama years it was one of the biggest stumbling blocks that prevented them from completely taking over the country. Back when the US left was more ideologically diverse, there were a good number of left-wing people who begged leaders to ditch the anti-gun position outside of big cities. They pointed out things like absurdity of pushing "assault weapon bans" when pistols are used in the overwhelming majority of gun murders. The national party always refused and got steadily more anti-gun. In theory this was because of fat Shaniquas crying over their sweet little angels who dindu nuffin and got shot by a rival gang member. The truth is more likely that US elites hate the idea of peasants being armed.
For many people who find themselves alienated by the left, abortion is the issue that absolutely prevents them from considering the right. Just like with guns and drugs, you can ban abortions but that won't stop people from getting them in much less safe ways than before. Guns are an issue where for pro-gun people, gun rights are often their #1 or #2 priority, but for anti-gun people, banning guns is their #7 or #8 priority at best, therefore pushing gun bans was idiotic for the Dems. Abortion is the same way; there are lots of people who will vote against a Republican because they support abortion rights, but there are very few who will refuse to vote for a Republican because they aren't doing enough to ban abortion. Most people who oppose abortion agree with Republicans on most other issues and will still turn out and vote even if there's no movement on abortion, while banning abortion will create a fanatical base of opposition.
Tl;dr abortions don't kill people, abortion bans kill the chance to take the country back from the left.

You’re not wrong on the lack of game selection. I was big into video games back during the ‘Bit Wars’ and remember saving up to buy a Jaguar because it ‘had the most bits’ only for my Mom to talk me out of it because there weren’t any games.
The difference here is that back then I could find a Jaguar or a 3DO. Yeah, they sucked but I could play them and realize that.
I have literally never seen a PS5 and every time I look at them on eBay they’re selling for twice MSRP.
This isn’t something I follow closely, but I wonder if the reason that there aren’t any games is because the consoles aren’t widely available, so it’s better to program for both generations of consoles to make as much off a title as they can.
I remember back in the early days of the PS2 there were only a couple titles that were really utilizing the PS2 hardware to the best of its abilities (SSX Tricky was the shit back in the day) but the rest looked like PS1 titles. It took the game companies awhile to really max out the capabilities of the PS2.
A year into it, there haven’t been many games released exclusively for the PS5. I wonder if that is because the console hasn’t been widely adopted yet due to supply issues. Why release a game that will play exclusively on the PS5 that will just be ‘old’ when the consoles to play it are actually out there when you can just ‘remaster’ games you’re releasing for an older console and charge $15 more.

the GOP won most presidential elections in blowouts during the cold war and despite that things kept getting worse. it took kennedy to give the dem fuckers a win. after the cold war the GOP has only one the popular vote once. which means if you were born in 1971 and have been voting since you have only seen it once, and you would also be well above the average age in this country and firmly in the conservative base overall. hell if we only allowed people in their 40s to vote it would be a 50/50 shot that the dems might win.

its most likely supply chain issues for the slow roll out this generation, which might be a good thing, this generation had fuck all for launch titles, i know when i got my first console it was so far into the gen that there was numerous great games to play, and i bet we'll be seeing more of that in 2022/2023. This actually was semi-great as a console gen. compared to the original PS4/XBO, compared to the PS4 pro XBO pro it was rather unnecessary. but they really tried to make these better options than getting a PC this time around. not just in cost like the pros but in performance as well.

Not necessarily.
People who have abortion as their top issue primarily vote in favor of the GOP. Youngkin won those voters by over 10 points. The pussy-hat woman with a post graduate degree are also gurenteed to vote in most elections.
Abortion has steadily decreased in popularity since the 90's, and furthermore, with Democrats pushing late term abortion, it actually has made them lost ground on the debate. Baris was polling this during the Texas Heartbeat law was enacted. Most support it. In fact, he found that younger people now are more pro-life than millenials. You would most likely juice Trump's base instead, since they like the repeal of RvW.
If you ask the question " Do you support reproductive rights for women?" , you get a much different response from " Do you support abortion when the fetus has a heartbeat or feels pain?" Many pollsters phrase the issue like the former and refuse to elaborate. It's why you see "99% APPROVE BUILD BACK BETTER BILL " because they ask "Don't you support filling potholes and fixing our infrastructure?" instead of what's in the fucking bill.
Also, lol. No one will care if they repeal it in a month as long as its not close to the election. The economy is dogshit right now. Buying food, the #1 issue under cost of living, takes precedent over whoring yourself out and not accepting the consequence of your actions.
No amount of WAHMAN RIGHTS pandering will drive people to vote if they are near the brink of losing it all under an stagflation suffering economy.

There were articles from local Mississippi news about how joyous all of the local black people were because of finally getting jobs at the plants, showing pictures of how they were in abject poverty and how they were happy to finally have a place to work.
It's stayed with me for a long time.

I am. And I support Abortion rights. This is one of the big issues which has alienated me away from the Democrats. It would toss it back to the states, which is where it should have stayed until Roe artificially made it federal law. This ensured that it would be an issue for as long as Roe stands, as it prevented a natural consensus from arising. I'd note this was Ginsburg's position as well, and she was the lawyer who 'won' that.
I have been saying for quite some time that the bottom of support for Biden is about 37% without shitting the bed hard, and Kamala's was about 27% which represents the absolute bottom for them both.
Non taken.
Eeeeh, don't be so sure. @Vaclav has a point comparing it to the 2A issues, but both of you miss something important here.
The Democrats have steadily been bleeding support on this issue.
Their continued pushes for ever more extreme abortion laws have been very steadily wiping away their independent support for this. Additionally, it'd be a SCOTUS decision and generally, SCOTUS appointments are only really a push for older, Republican voters. Also, it might energize some of the core left, but that group is the least worrying for the Democrats right now.
It would not have -no- effect, but it is also unlikely to seriously renew the Democrats chances without some serious backup.
Addendum: I'd say less ninja'd and more us both covering different aspects of the same response. Still, good post @GuntPunt!
