1. If we fail to unseat Trump in 2020, kiss the entire Bill of Rights goodbye...

except for the 2nd amendment - which will almost certainly be reinterpreted to apply only to white men by some twisted logic...

We lose 2020, and we are looking at a permanent 7-2 conservative rubber stamp SCOTUS for 35 years or more. The damage will be incalculable and the very fabric of what "America" is and could be will be warped and lost, maybe forever.

I know that sounds like doom and gloom and fatalism, but look at the ages of the justices, the composition of the court and the people left that Trump would nominate. We just seated the least qualified, most controversial justice in 30 years and it won't get better from there...
