Democrats need to get Citizens United reversed. Too bad all states didn't have Montana's ballot to ban corporate money, which would have been a small start.

    There's a slim chance this will happen in the next two administrations. But, if two of Thomas, Alito, or Roberts dies, or quits before January, Trump will get two more appointments. They might quit just to give him that opportunity. If that happens, then it will be a long time still before we can get rid of it.

    Pack the Supreme Court, make the Reps bitch and moan about it.

    Why wait?

    I don't even care if it ends up holding, or even working at all, but we need that 'Lyndon Johnson cockslaps you in the bathroom' kind of energy.

    Oh, the Reps want an actual law that caps the Court? Sure, if you kill the Electoral College.

    See, you can just assert your own framework of negotiations, instead of just taking whatever the Repulicans lay down as their terms, and then working within those.
