Only people talking about packing the courts is you guys. Nobody is bringing it up and the amount of supreme court justices has not changed since the 1800s when it was 10, 5, 8, 9. You are the ones bring back the 1800s in the form of tariffs lol.
Completely wrong. There is intense pressure from the left of the Democratic party to take actions like court packing in order to get a bold progressive agenda passed.

Packing the senate? What does this even mean?
Adding additional states out of partisan motives, states which would provide safe Democratic seats in the Senate. Prime example: DC statehood. Other examples: granting statehood to Puerto Rico, American Samoa, splitting California into 2-3 states. (We've even had a dedicated thread about this here on PaRD.)

Large scale amnesty would be the easiest solution to our immigration problem. And the most humane. You support breaking up Hispanic families as a rule and that is weird. These german tendencies.
How in the world is amnesty supposed to solve the problem with ongoing illegal immigration? How is it supposed to solve the issue that legal immigration is strongly skewed toward family reunification over merit-based labor market immigration? How is it supposed to solve the abuse of H-1B visas to undercut domestic wages in fields where there is no real shortage of workers?

China's leader told his army to prepare for war after the US went ahead with a large arms sale to Taiwan. I thought you wanted to get away from HRC because of the jingoism, but you're doing it now against an even worse enemy than small Arab states that the Democrats are complicit in oppressing. Disastrous international treaties? Did Trump get us out of NAFTA or are you against the environment? That is how that reads to me. Unless you mean NATO....Trump is cozying up with Putin, who has wanted to roll tanks into Western Europe his whole life. Practicing your Russian? The only continued peace Europe has had is under Pax America and you're eager to get back into the old habits of breaking up families, making people carry papers, and fighting the russians lol.
Delusional ramblings. For the record: jointly, the militaries of France, Germany, the UK, Italy, Spain and the NL are significantly stronger than that of Russia. France and the UK got nukes of their own. The Russians waltzing into Western Europe with their tanks is no longer a realistic concern since the end of the Cold War.
