That's because the senate controls what fed judges are approved.. You add that like its a accomplishment when you've lost almost every case your judges herd LMAO.


Senate Democrats had 26 seats up for election (including the seats of two independents who caucus with them) while Senate Republicans had nine seats up for election in 2018.


Its flipped for 2020. Republicans will be defending 23 seats, while the Democratic Party will be defending 12 seats. Democrats will need to pick up three or four seats to gain a majority, depending on which party wins control of the vice presidency.


The dems really only need 2 seats. It would put the senate in a tie with the vp having the tie breaking vote.

The dems have 47 seats plus two independents who caucus with them. The GOP has 51 seats.


I got the info from here. No clue if its not accurate.

Democrats will need to pick up three or four seats to gain a majority, depending on which party wins control of the vice presidency.

Leader's seat: Kentucky

It looks like you added the 2 independents onto the 47+2=49. It should be 45+2=47 ..They have 47 total with the 2 independents


Correct. With the 45 dems and the two independents who caucus with them makes 47. If the dems pick up 2 seats and win the presidency they will have control of the senate with the vp vote. If Trump wins the dems need three seats.

I thought I had spelled it out pretty clear. It takes 51 seats to take control without the VP. If both parties have 50 seats then the VP casts the tie breaker vote. The senate has 100 seats control goes to whomever has 50 plus the vp tie breaker or 51 with no VP takes it.



47+2=49 seats. This would give the GOP 51 seats. The VP only gets a vote if there's a tie. In your math there is no tie. The VP doesn't get to vote for anything else. His vote is only a tie breaker vote.

Thank you for posting this.

You are welcome. :ying:

I was watching some of that again and was about to have a rant about his pathetic tactics of bringing up other problems in the world to deflect from his own ineptitude.... but :covereyes: it's all been said before....

Person, woman, man, camera, TV.... psychologists would have been belly laughing at that projection of what is constantly circling in his mind.

Everything.... EVERYTHING, that he ever says or does is egocentric in the extreme.

The advertising for the upcoming presidential campaigns should be interesting. I expect fabricated mud slinging from trump. On the Biden side, he doesn't have to say anything negative. It will be way to easy to hang trump with his own words. All Biden has to do is stick to a positive leadership message with a plan.

Ahh - the internet equivalent of 'Throwing down the Gauntlet' -
There are rules to follow.

Rules

1. To be a fair stand-up boxing match in a 24-foot ring, or as near that size as practicable.
2. No wrestling allowed.
3. The rounds to be of three minutes' duration, and one minute's time between rounds.
4. If either man falls through weakness or otherwise, he must get up unassisted, 10 seconds to be allowed him to do so, the other man meanwhile to return to his corner, and when the fallen man is on his legs the round is to be resumed and continued until the three minutes have expired. If one man fails to come to the scratch in the 10 seconds allowed, it shall be in the power of the referee to give his award in favour of the other man.
5. A man hanging on the ropes in a helpless state, with his toes off the ground, shall be considered down.
6. No seconds or any other person to be allowed in the ring during the rounds.
7. Should the contest be stopped by any unavoidable interference, the referee to name the time and place as soon as possible for finishing the contest; so that the match must be won and lost, unless the backers of both men agree to draw the stakes.
8. The gloves to be fair-sized boxing gloves of the best quality and new.
9. Should a glove burst, or come off, it must be replaced to the referee's satisfaction.
10. A man on one knee is considered down and if struck is entitled to the stakes.
11. That no shoes or boots with spikes or sprigs (wire nails) be allowed.[6]
12. The contest in all other respects to be governed by revised London Prize Ring Rules.

Rules 5 and 11 are important. Prove me right.

Trump is going to win, Antifa is a bunch of pussies...BLM is a joke...prove me wrong you lefty losers

hmmm...seems like you’re saying that anyone who stands against nazis/fights nazis are pussies and that the lives of black people don’t matter.
Personally, although i lean right politically, i do not support either of your positions. I suspect that lots of other right leaning people don’t support your positions either. And since the mentally demented bone-spurred coward doesn’t believe in traditional conservative values, i won’t support him either.
