"The Supreme Court sharply curtails the authority of the EPA to regulate greenhouse-gas emissions that cause climate change. In a 6-3 ruling, the court sides with conservative states and fossil-fuel companies in adopting a narrow reading of the Clean Air Act."
"The Supreme Court ALLOWS the Biden administration to terminate the controversial Trump-era asylum policy known as "remain in Mexico." Red states argued that Biden was obliged to keep the policy, but SCOTUS says in a 5-4 ruling that the administration can end it."
Being principled is the only thing that brings meaning to defeat or victory. Cheating your way to victory is a hollow victory.
The only time it's appropriate to throw out the rules and revolt is when facing an existential threat. Acting like every little set back is an existential threat is what the lefty activists do, and I hate them for it. I have no problem hating you for the same. You will live through this set back, and we will be back and stronger.
Feel free to hate me or whoever you want for wanting to preserve America from the deathmarch of leftism.
I completely disagree with your assessment of the current situation.
Things have gotten this bad because we had people like you who care about principles leading the right while the left continued to demolish everything we love and cherish.
The nation is flooded with illegal aliens and I should be happy that two Republicans were "principled" and cucked out.
No thanks, I am not an establishment conservative cuck.
If you don't want to do what it takes to truly stand up to the left, then get out of the way and sit down.
Being principled is great, and it makes for an especially poignant obituary. Being principled only works when your opponent plays by the rules. Since that is clearly impossible, pragmatism is more important.
They view and treat this conflict as a war, therefore it IS one (whether it suits your ideals or not). The overly principled lose wars unless they possess overwhelming force. We do NOT possess overwhelming force so all tactics are acceptable unless we reach an agreement with the enemy to discontinue them. We once had such tacit agreements but they have long since violated them, so reciprocation is in order. Imagine one of the sides in WW1 refusing to use machine guns because they went against their principles.
The left isn't playing by the rules dude. They haven't for a good 20-30 years. FFS we lost an election because of it.
You can't have a proper game if your opponent refuses to play by the same rules you do.
