Ruth Bader Ginsburg Has Died from Cancer at 87. Sorry, Mitch, but Whoever Wins in November MUST Nominate her Replacement

[Chishawk1425]

During the Biden administration there will likely be a couple more openings that he will fill with liberal-leaning justices. We need to be sure a sensible balance is maintained in advance by filling Ginsberg’s seat with a conservative.

You are embarrassing.

 

[Moral]

Big loss for America. RIP in peace.

 

[retrodent]

Yes!!! Trump will get two more pucks and save this country for 25 years from insane democrats

 

[pablow]

Very sorry to hear this.

 

[Huey Grey]

I thought that was 2016. Either way, the hypocrisy of Mitch and company will no doubt reach new heights. They should do the right thing and let it ride until next January.

Sadly, I doubt they do

Zero chance they will. Mitch has already said he will confirm should an opening occur. And there will be no Republicans to oppose him.

Die in a fire.

Well, you can tell us what you think.

Remind me where mitch or any other majority leader ever refused a vote with the same party president and senate majority.

RIP RBG. Cancer effing sucks.

True, deplorables tend to be deplorable.

 

[The Tradition]

It's tragic that she died, but certainly not unexpected.

I am not in favor of the senate ramming through a new nominee this close to the election.

 

[Huey Grey]

In one weeks time, max, you will also be demanding a replacement.

 

[Formerly Rockymtnole]

I predict Collins, Murkowski and Romney would not vote to confirm a rushed nomination. Just would need one more, right?

 

[runkpanole]

4-5 months???

How long did they make Obama wait?

 

[retrodent]

I updated the thread title

Yes!!!

lol, is that how you're going to pretend this wont' be a giant bowl of hypocrisy?

 

[Nipigu]

If they replace her before the election then Dems pack the court. Make that threat crystal clear to Mitch.

Can someone translate this?

 

[Huey Grey]

I predict Collins, Murkowski and Romney would not vote to confirm a rushed nomination. Just would need one more, right?

No way. All 3 will. They will gladly vote for another conservative judge at the last second.

 

[Huey Grey]

Increase the number of justices.

 

[St. Louis Hawk]

RIP Ruth. RIP.

 

[HawkeyeShawn]

RIP RBG. Great woman, great American. It would be a mistake to rush through her replacement. Wait until 2021.

 

[lr1007]

What goes around, comes around.

The Democrats can blame what’s about to happen on Harry Reid

 

[ottumwan in tx]

I guess this is why Trump came out with the list a couple days ago

 

[farmandfleet]

Plenty of time to hold a vote now. We need another conservative to balance the court.

No reason to wait, mail in vote fraud will likely jam up the congress for 2-3 months.

 

[BioHawk]

Liberals explode in 3 2 1

Rightfully so.

 

[h-hawk]

She left a note asking she not be replaced by this President.

 

[mstp1992]

And yet you will gleefully support the degradation of her work in the following weeks when Trump trots out a replacement.

I actually don’t think @goldmom would. I disagree with her on many things, but I believe she comes from a point of integrity.

Trump, however, as happy as he can be. He is an evil human being.

 

[The Tradition]

Nope. That would be a giant political shitstorm that this nation does not need right now.

 

[Huey Grey]

She. Is. A. Trump. Supporter. She has no integrity. The excuse is already there. Biden will win, get two picks, so they need balance things beforehand. She will support this.

 

[Nipigu]

Further proof that you all only care about upsetting people and have no interest in doing what is right.

Certainly this isn’t ground breaking agenda on this site.

 

[Huey Grey]

Nope. That would be a giant political shitstorm that this nation does not need right now.

I'll believe it when I see it. Trump will drag the court into chaos and you will still pull the lever for him.

 

[Bobcat07]

RBG dying on the night that Rosh Hashanah begins is excessively cruel. This year sucks so much.

 

[Franisdaman]

Odds on McConnell/Trump ramming someone through.

The President is a hypocrite

Mitch is a hypocrite

I would be shocked if they don't try and fill the position ASAP.

However, ABC News just said they probably don't have time to get it done if they tried.

 

[DogBoyRy]

You need to go try and fvck yourself with a one iron you worthless pile of shit.

So you don’t have one.

 

[biggreydogs]

How long did they make Obama wait?

Yep. I seriously could not remember time of Garland. It will be interesting.

 

[Nipigu]

Increase the number of justices.

Did you read the complete quote?

 

[ConvenientParking]

There's basically no reason to pretend to be civil any more if Republicans try to do this. I'm going to be very rude in public.

 

[hawkguy77]

What is sad is how political the nomination and confirmation process has become. Joe Biden and Ted Kennedy are responsible for a new word being added to the English language because of what they and the other dems did to Robert Bork.
