    Requesting him to resign is the same thing as asking cancer to just… please leave.

    Dissolve the court. Arrest Gorsuch, Thomas, Alito and Kavanaugh. Bring in an independent investigator and if any of the others have so much as gotten a ride to their car from someone with business before the court arrest them too. No more “well it’s only a little bit corrupt” or “yeah but you’ve gotta understand” or that horse shit. You want your word to be the literal law that almost 400 million people have to live under? You need to be fucking flawless.

    Why would he resign? Like really why would he do it. You can’t force him to, his time won’t run out and corpos and lobbying will never let any sort of political entity take him from his place.

    Dude is there until death you can cry all you want but he’s not leaving.

    I will gladly be wrong about this btw but I know i probably won’t.

    he won’t resign unless he is compelled by the law or court order. there are too many people who have invested in him for him to just walk away.

        Well, he could be impeached. Simple majority in the house and 2/3 in the senate though, iirc. Don’t see that happening any time soon.

          Republicans hold the house for now, so that’s absolutely not happening, esp. since the poorly-name “Freedom Caucus” would immediately move to remove McCarthy if he even brought it to the floor for a vote.

    That would be ethical and the right thing to do so there’s no way in hell that corrupt sex pest would ever resign.

    The only way he’ll ever leave his position is feet first. Just like RBG and Scalia.

      He has literally stated his life goal is to “make liberals’ lives miserable” because some Catholic priest wannabes were racist to him in seminary.

      Which would be cool of him if he’d like, not picked the bootlicking side. Or if he wasn’t doing what those miserable dicks wanted? Or knew what a liberal was?

          I have three theories.

          1: They were mostly Democrats, and he’s too dumb to realize they almost certainly became Republicans.

          2: He never abandoned his Marxist roots, used the term “liberal” ideologically to a bunch of Republicans that didn’t know he meant them too, and is entering the final stages of his accelerationist master plan. Because he’s a moron.

          3: He’s actually just a greedy sociopath who does what he’s bribed to do.

    There is literally nothing compelling him to resign and if he did resign under democrat rule, the republicans would make sure that he will never feel safe again.

    Maybe a system where someone can be this openly corrupt while making decisions for a large group of people shouldn’t exist?
