Majority of Democrats, young people want to abolish Supreme Court: poll

By Miranda Devine
July 11, 2022

A majority of Democrat voters believe the Supreme Court is a racist, sexist institution that ought to be abolished, according to a new poll commissioned by the Heartland Institute. And in a clear threat to the court’s future, almost as many young people aged 19 to 39 feel the same way.

The national survey of 1,025 US voters split strongly down party lines, with 53% of Democrats in favor of abolishing the current Supreme Court and replacing it with a “new, democratically elected . . . court with justices chosen by the American people directly,” and 33% “strongly” in favor. Just 21% of Republicans and 38% of independents favored the proposition.

A majority (54%) of young people aged 19 to 39 wanted the court abolished. Overall, just 37% of total voters agreed, according to the Rasmussen poll conducted on July 6 and 7, almost two weeks after the Supreme Court overturned the Roe v Wade decision on abortion.

While 67% of Democrats believe the court is a “fundamentally sexist institution that favors men over women,” just 18% of Republicans and 36% of independents agreed.

That is very true. Only, they have now given it a new name: “diversity, equity, and inclusion”.

Do they even teach 9th grade Civics anymore?

That little checks and balances aspect that the founding fathers envisioned has been lost to an entire generation.

It's the revolutionary mentality - the ends justify the means.  This is how they will attempt to justify and rationalize disassembling the Founders' systems of checks and balances for ideological expediency.  What they fail to consider is that revolution may be followed by counter-revolution; their own revolutionary tactics will be used against them.

That evolved from at lease 2 generations where the little bastards always got their way when being raised.

They should go ahead and do it. There is nothing stopping them and there is a very simple guide laid out in the constitution itself.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

And now, the little entitled bastards are the teachers.

And if Republicans narrowly win all nine seats, what then?  Judicial activism isn't as popular as they think.

Its so easy to get hell to reign in a Country but a great deal harder to get it out of your Country.  So many Lewinskys on their knees feel really special being devoted serving on their knees to the evil and corrupt.  Big SURPRISE, THE End Times are here!

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
