    The Senate Democrats want to eliminate the filibuster rule to ram through whatever laws they like; the House Democrats instituted proxy voting where one member can cast the votes of multiple members; the Democrats trampled all over past impeachment practices to try to unconstitutionally remove the President; the Obama-Bien administration used the FBI and Intel agencies against candidate and then President Trump; the Democrats want to get rid of the electoral college; the Democrats want to add four Democrat senators via DC and Puerto Rico; the Democrats are using mass mail-in voting to create chaos on election night and talk about a violent insurrection against the President; the Senate Democrats were the first to widely use the filibuster against judicial nominees when they were in the minority but then ended the rule (in part) when they became the Senate majority; for months the Democrats trashed law enforcement during riots in which they refused to denounce the violence; the Democrats talk about packing the Supreme Court with radical ideologies; the Democrats have denounced the framers of the Constitution as a bunch of slaveholders as the basis for rejecting the Constitution when it’s inconvenient toward their unconstitutional ends; the Democrats agreed to a 110-page radical manifesto that would destroy America as we know it; the Democrats appoint judges who thwart elected representatives and the will of the people; etc.

    Yet, today the Democrats and their media propagandists lie (they do that often) about some non-existent tradition or practice preventing the President from nominating a candidate to the Supreme Court during an election or the latter part of his first term. Of course, the tradition and practice are indisputably the opposite. The Democrats want power at any price. Wherever possible it must be denied them.

    The President should proceed quickly with the nomination of a proven constitutionalist and Senate Republicans should proceed quickly with this or her confirmation.

    Gentlemen's Agreements like filibusters, blue slips and the mutually agreed-upon numbers of judges on courts are over, for better or worse (worse in more areas than less). If Democrats find themselves in a position after November 3 in which they can add seats, then the new era we now exist in will see them doing just that. Republicans were in a position of power that allowed them to block Obama's nominee for nearly an entire year left in his Presidency, and so they did. This is just the new dynamic.

    Certain traditions desperately need to return to normal, such as the barrier between the White House and the DOJ so that the American public trusts that the DOJ is working in the country's interests than as the President's personal attorney and attack dog.

    The admission of DC and Puerto Rico are excellent examples of agendas that could be seen as obviously beneficial to one party, yet are inherently good by their own virtues. If you are an American citizen and you pay taxes, then you should be appropriately represented. West Virginians, for example, would find it inconceivable to have their votes taken away and yet still be considered American citizens and pay taxes, yet that these are the conditions Puerto Rico and DC residents find themselves in.

    There's no evidence that mail-in ballots are prone to cheating, so that argument can be dismissed out of hand. The first investigation by Trump into voter fraud found no evidence of it, and in court when a Federal judge demanded the Trump Campaign to provide evidence of voter fraud, they admitted they could find no examples of it.

    Impeachment is in the Constitution. Getting to that point was difficult, but I had to stop reading there.

    There is plenty of evidence however it seems to be invisible to democrats.

    Presenting the evidence has been the problem for the Republican Party over the decades, but it remains an article of faith of their base. It doesn’t seem to invisible it is invisible.

    If you work for the post office throw out those ballots because there will be no evidence of fraud.

    Kind of hard to listen to liberals who have been trying to undo the 2016 election for 3 1/2 years lecture us about election integrity. It's slightly hypocritical for liberals to call Trump authoritarian when they used impeachment as political tool to try to undo an election.
