We’d really like to see Judge Brett Kavanaugh confirmed as soon as possible, because the think pieces from liberal sites are going to kill us soon. Now The New Yorker is teasing liberal readers with exactly the kind of catnip that drives them nuts and begging for more: the idea that conservative political power is all “unearned.”
Ultimately, the conservative takeover of America’s courts hinged on ruthless power politics: the G.O.P. exploiting its unearned advantage in the Electoral College, the U.S. Senate, and the Supreme Court itself. https://t.co/bKUKrVetMs pic.twitter.com/Lqw7326hJG

Um …
"Unearned," is the very key word here, it opens all the progressives locks. America is illegitimate because it is supposedly a white male kick back system posing as a meritocracy. That's the current grand unifying theory of the American Left. https://t.co/paB0dQfok7

Muh bicameral legislature established by the constitution was okay for hundreds of years until we lost

Unearned advantage? Have you people at the New Yorker read the Constitution?

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE? https://t.co/PqazqVlq56

Here is what’s sad. You don’t understand the workings of a democratic republic designed to prevent abuses of power. Ask for an educational refund.

"Quirks."
"..unearned advantage in the Electoral College."
"Republican Party has relied not just on the quirks of the Electoral College but also on another electoral body that was designed to limit majority rule: the U.S. Senate."
This article is satire… right?
— sbvegas (@sbvegas) July 15, 2018
Any news organization that describes the Electoral College and the US Senate as quirks is not intellectually honest. Sadly too many buy into the drivel in this article. There is a lot to complain about politics on both sides but this is just sore loser writing. Try to do better.

Cry harder and go back and mandate a Civics course for your employees – like at 4th-grade level so your staff can understand it ?

Winning elections and using the Constitutional framework to legally appoint judges & justices to own the libs

This is complete dumbassery. How did they not earn their advantage in the electoral college and Senate? They won elections. That’s how power is earned…

“Unearned advantage”? Well according to Democratic Socialism, we don’t have to earn anything anymore. So your point is moot.

Sounds like whining about rules after you lose. Dems are so afraid of judges that actually adhere to Constitution and don’t force liberal beliefs down our throats like judicial tyrants

LOL. You lost. Get over it already. It’s getting boring.

I don't have an exact count of the number of people who've been driven into complete idiocy because of trump, but it's surely in the millions.
