Convincing Americans that these 3 branches have failed us is way more of an attack against our democratic system than "checking to see if my vote was counted" is.

I disagree. Attacking and undermining confidence in our institutions (rule of law, free and fair elections, bill of rights) is the real danger. We have seen most of those attacks eminating from the right unfortunately.

That is literally what saying the SC is corrupt is doing...

The bill of rights, the rule of law, free elections...

Literally none of that can exist without the SC

Every banana republic has a bill of rights.

Have you ever read the Soviet Unions? It's more democratic sounding than Americas, but they dont have a separate branch to enforce it. So it is meaningless.

The 3 branches of goverment, are our only institution, the rest are ideas that those branches protect.

Samuel Alito’s Boundless Contempt for Democracy

Fully unmoored from legal reasoning, the justice’s voting rights ruling is cynical and un-American.

Complaining about fanatical evangelicals hijacking considerable parts of our federal government by stacking the courts is downright unpatriotic.

You're literally saying that the system working as intended is "hijacking"

You're trying to say the entire democratic system is corruptible/corrupted.

You're not trying to fix it lol you're trying to say it's collapsed.

That is un patriotic. You're trying to hostilely take over the country.

Democrats: "hey left leaning judge, can you retire early, so we can get a judge that likes our political party into your seat?"

Judge: "no, I dont give a rats ass about your political party"

Democrats: "THIS SYSTEM IS RIGGED WE MUST COMPLETELY REVAMP IT!"

gtfo you terrorist.

I haven't voted for a republican in my life and I actively posted negative things about trump during the election and have voted democrat in every election except for 1.

So if you mean my Democrat party, Yes: Democrat candidates are all grifters.
