Dems need to win elections. That means voting for people like Hillary even if she is not an ideal liberal. The supreme court, the ACA, taxes, they are all the high costs of electing Trump.
It is also high time for Americans to democratize their undemocratic system of government. The senate wildly over-represents citizens who happen to live in states like South Dakota and wildly under-represents citizens in states like New York. In what way is it democratic to give Californians two senators and Rhode Islanders the same 2? California has 40 million citizens, Rhode Island has 1. Add to the senate the electoral college, which further favors citizens in underpopulated states.
The US has an antiquated constitutional republic that was never designed to give the people too much power. If Americans can stop paying homage to the imagined excellence of their government, which no country on earth has copied in history, they might decide to host a new constitutional convention to update their government and constitution, something the framers encouraged future Americans to do every generation.
Americans should worry less about a supreme court’s interpretation of their constitution and think harder about rewriting it to be more democratic and less susceptible to extreme right or left wing exploitation.
