So disgusted with our current SCOTUS. Vote Blue to correct this corrupt situation. Term limits & add enough new Justices to balance the court.

[@brianpowell6058]

Each judicial district is overseen by a supreme court justice. There are 13 judicial district's in the USA. With 9 supreme court justices, that means some supreme court justices look after two or more districts. It would seem better for there to be one supreme court justice for each judicial district, which would mean appointing four more supreme court justices. The American system of making appointing judges, at every level, a political decision is open to abuse, especially as federal appointments carry life time terms. It would be better if the American Bar Association were given the power to appoint and remove judges.

[@SusiFroggyPorter]

That will only be possible if the House, Senate and President are Democrats. The two parties may disagree with policies and that's ok. That what makes us a democracy but Democrats aren't trying to get rid of democracy, republicans are. It is also very important that the voters do the same when electing in their state elections.

[@PCFLSZ]

The prosecution's failure to timely file charges should not translate into the courts rushing a trial that violates a defendant's right to a fair trial. A rushed trial with a conviction that gets overturned will lead to serious claims that the prosecution was politically motivated election interference.

[@gjaxx]

As an outsider, the US judicial system is mind boggling to me. The fact that a democracy's judiciary can be so politically biased is astonishing. The actual process which has brought you to this Republican weighted 6-3 Supreme Court is shocking to say the least. McConnell's manipulations since 2016, which have resulted in a Court which can pretty much overrule ANYTHING which threatens the power of the GOP, has ridden a coach and horses through your democracy. It doesn't appear to matter how biased and corrupt they are, they have lifetime appointments. Even Presidents only serve a single 4 year term, and a max of 2 terms if re-elected. This needs to be seriously addressed if/when Dems control both Houses again

[@mlaiuppa]

Don't rely on SCOTUS or corrupt judges, as the MAGA infected members have proven in the past that they will help Traitor Trump to DELAY a very easy decision...no POTUS have 100% full immunity. They have civil immunity, not criminal. The only fake POTUS requesting full immunity is Don the Con who is desperate to stay out of jail.

It is really disturbing that Cannon is getting away with delaying this trial. It brings much disrespectful opinions toward the court as a whole.

One would think that the importance of the case would prompt a judge to clear their schedule to allow this to be heard before an election. Additionally, if someone thinks they are innocent of all crimes then the accused would want the case heard as quickly as possible to clear their names.
