Overturning same sex marriage, legalizing “conversion therapy”, _aka_ torturing homosexuals (also known as “beat the gay away”), legalizing all sorts of persecution of homosexuals.

No, but the very real danger of a liberal court is that churches will suffer the same fate as buildings named after Confederate figures.

When was the last time SCOTUS overturned itself?

I honestly cannot think of any PResidential nominee, win or lose, Republican or Democrat, who would not be at least one thousand percent better a President than Donald Trump.

Romney? Would have made a better President.  
Carter? Better.  
Dole? Better.  
Either Clinton? Better.  
Either Bush? Better.  
Gore? Better.  
Ford? Better.  
Dukakis? Better.  
McCain? Better.

If you rated every serious Presidential candidate ever on a scale of 1 to 100, with 100 being best and Washington or Lincoln, or both, at 100, and the worst to date being… well, I’ll say Breckinridge, at 7 or 8, Trump is a zero. I can’t think of a single positive aspect of his candidacy, for anyone, and can think of several ways in which he is a serious danger to his country and everyone in it.

They won’t be able to name churches built on public property with public funds after the gods they worship?? What _are_ you talking about?

When was the last time the court was stuffed with far-right ideologues for the specific purpose of having it overturn itself?

Which reminds me: is there any history of Trump physically assaulting anyone (other than his wives, where at least one such incident is documented)?

Gay rights; there was an early ruling that “sodomy” could be banned by states, and a later ruling changing that.

Oh, I believe you. I was just commenting in another thread about people that actually get more enjoyment out of screwing with their political “enemies” then they do honestly supporting their candidate of choice. You are very easy to understand.

Yep, nothing, we only found that HeweyLogan does not mind supporting incompetents and the ones that follow them. Moving along:

Most recently there was a ruling by the supreme court in 2009 that did accept that the EPA Can Regulate CO2 Emissions, but recently it looked as if that was going to be overturned as Scalia did vote to stop the new EPA regulations and to hear the case of the state opposing those new regulations later.

The death of Scalia has put a pause on that, but how the ruling will come later will likely depend on who the next president is a science ignoramus like Trump or a person that does understand the basics like Clinton.

The circle-jerk that goes on here is how you support your candidate? That this is more or less a rally at this site, disagreers fuck off?

How does preaching to the choir help your side? Your cause.

I’m baffled.

What you _are_ is content-free. I enjoy arguing with people, but you don’t actually say much of anything. You just keep throwing out vaguely insulting phrases. Nobody can engage with you because you aren’t actually saying much of anything to engage _with._
