Reid opened the door and McConnel followed his lead. If the democrats pack the courts like they are threatening, are you gonna complain that they are doing something more than what the republicans did, or are you gonna cheer about it
If the dems try to pack the senate by giving PR and DC statehood and the republicans decide to split a state like Texas into 3 states to counter it, are you gonna complain about that?

Read my last post, the facts contradict your cherry picked opinion.....

.....

Trump, Nov 6: You know, it is true, when I first came to office — because of what I said before, that I’ve always heard how important it is the choice of judges and the number of judges. And in my first day, I said to one of our assistants, “How many judges do I have to pick? How many are there?” And I figured I’d hear none or one, maybe two. They said, “Sir, you have 142.” I said, “No, no, no, tell me truth. I want the truth.” (Laughter.) That was it. And I say: Thank you, President Obama, very much.

When Trump took office, there were 112 federal judicial vacancies. That’s a high number of vacancies, but as we have written before, that was not the result of complacency by Obama, but rather opposition to Obama’s judicial nominations from Senate Republicans who held a majority during the last two years of Obama’s presidency. Experts told us Senate Republicans confirmed far fewer judicial nominees in Obama’s last two years than had been confirmed in the last two years of previous presidents. As a result, in early January 2017, just before Trump took office, there were 59 federal court nominees pending. That’s why Trump inherited so many vacancies.

What she wants is outside her power.
I will remain consistent with my last argument and say it needs to wait till after the election. will it? i doubt it.

I believe his point is that congressional districts have exactly zero to do with a vote by Senators.

You act like thats something new. The democrats did the same thing to Bush and the republicans did it to clinton, etc, etc, etc....
Reid went nuclear and now the Dems are feeling the consequences of it.

It is a shame that one persons death can have such an influence on society. If we restricted law making to Congress and have the court interpret those laws, a Supreme Court Justice would not be so important.

As long as the Constitution is followed, Que sera, sera.

 

[Jack Fabulous]

This nomination should wait, IMO, but it won't.

Democrats will be able to rightly claim that Republicans are hypocrites... but at this point I don't really think that it matters. Discourse is at such a low point that words like "hypocrite" are just going to kind of blend in with the rest of the mud-slinging.

She made you do it. Right.


Don't address the fact that the GOP made up bull**** rules to justify stealing Garldand's seat. Don't address the fact that they now excuse themselves from following their own made-up rules. Blame Ginsburg. It's her fault the GOP is deplorably corrupt.

Right.

Fill the seat. Dems would do it.

In fact Biden agreed with it:

Vice President Joe Biden declared in 2016 that if he were chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee he would push ahead with the nomination of a Supreme Court justice "even a few months before a presidential election."

Biden in 2016: President Has 'Constitutional Duty' to Nominate Justice

The current Democratic presidential nominee said in 2016 that he would push ahead with the nomination of a Supreme Court appointee "even a few months before a presidential election."

Democrats don't have any leg to stand on, especially on this issue. They're now flip flopping like a fish out of water.

It also wouldn't help the liberals have the same reaction over everything whether its supreme court nomination or what shoes Melania is wearing. They're truly unhinged .

So Mitch McConnell didn't flip flop on this issue?

He absolutely did and so did everyone on the right who supported not giving Garland a hearing. But then again the Democrats who were demanding that Garland receive a hearing are flip flopping, too.

 

[post]

So Mitch McConnell didn't flip flop on this issue?

McConnell weaponized the blocking of Obama's judicial appointments, as the facts I've posted three time, support.
McConnell had declared an agenda of denying any Obama accomplishment, as Trump has also done since his birther Con.
McConnell could not be certain he was not merely blocking judicial appointments soon to be filled by Clinton. It is obvious racism is at the
heart of both McConnell's and Trump's aggression towards Obama. As I posted earlier, I know non-Trumpers know all of this and proTrumpers
are enveloped in the Sgt. Schultz, "I see nothing.....nothing!"

 

[Aunt Antifa]

I honestly don’t understand all the hub bub from the left. This is great news if you think it through like a cold bitch.

Hi, I’m here to help.

-Of course we would have loved for RBG to hold on but she was 80 hundred years old and filled with Mr Burnsian type cancers and sea creatures.*

- GOP already has a conservative majority. I don’t care if they want to run up the score on their plans to take away my rights. So this doesn’t scare me even a little. I was there prior to this stuff! (I mean, I live in CA so I’m not too concerned about access to KILLING FETUSES.)

-GOP base is already activated on this issue. Maxed out. Ain’t no room to grow. And ya’ll got what you wanted. This is a victory lap, and of course you want to rub it in our faces.

-GOP now look like complete phonies with those video clips circulating 24/7. And there is no argument, spin, LISSEN HERE LIBTARD maga magic that’s gonna make it stop. Ya’ll said what ya said, and we all know you lied. You don’t get points for saying shit like “Everybody knows you guys would do it too!” Yuup, that’s the point - we tried. And you virtuously stood in our way for the good fo the country. 4 years ago ain’t enough of a lifetime I guess, eh?

-Thus far the GOP talking points on why they need to break with their own virtuousness range from “We need another justice in case Trump is close enough to steal it” to “No, really, we’re gonna kill Roe. No ****in’ around. We mean it. Bye bye Roe!” Ummm...good...good luck with all that? Just before the election? When people are *right now* voting based on words ya’ll are saying about stuffs? And Trump was desperately trying to claw his fat tiny fingers at suburban wimmen? Are you totally sure NOW is the time you wish to discuss Abortion? Let alone the ACA? Are you SURE this is the fight you want? (These questions are rhetorical. Much like of course Mitch is going to jam through a nom, of course we are gonna bury ya’ll in this stuff.)

-This galvanizes the dem base like a mother****er. Ya’ll have already seen the donation haul, my wife and I gave to the get mitch or die trying in a big way. Now we are activated for the ****ing *senate*.

It is my hope that President Werewolf’s got Nars nominates the most conservative piece of shit around around a vagina he can find. THe most right wing christian sharia law person imaginable. Make her look like Bill Barr’s idea of a porn series. Do it.

 

[GhostlyJoe]

Pure hypocrisy from the GOP, but they don't care. I dislike McConnell more than Trump.

McConnell is absolutely being hypocrital here.

The Democrats -- Biden included -- are also being hypocritical.

It's worth noting that the executive and senate were politically split in 2016, and both houses are in GOP hands today, so it's not a 1-1 situation.

 

[Helix]

"The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president."

"I want you to use my words against me. If there's a Republican president in 2016 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say, 'Lindsey Graham said let's let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination."

Here's what Mitch McConnell said about not filing a Supreme Court vacancy in an election year

"I believe that it is today the American people who are best-positioned to help make this important decision," he said in 2016

You can play dumb if you'd like, and act as if the GOP isn't doing everything it can to deal with the fact that demographics will render it unviable without massive voter suppression.

Ginsburg's last wish was to 'not be replaced until a new president is installed': report

The late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg told her granddaughter that her dying wish was not to be replaced until a new president is sworn into office, NPR reports.

Fat chance, Mitch McConnell will show his hypocrisy and Lindsey Graham will show himself to be a liar,

Not really an issue, it is going to be a Trump landslide and control of the House and Senate by Republicans regardless of what you anti American radicals want to believe. Most people love this country and won't vote for the radical left how has spent the last 4 years participating in the politics of personal destruction and showing radical behavior of destroying liberal cities and blaming it on Republicans. If you want racial equality people of Seattle, Portland, LA, SF, Minneapolis, Chicago, Kenosha, NYC stop voting for the same ideology over and over again as all these cities have been run by Democrats for decades and they hire, fund, and train employees implementing racial polices.

Anyone that votes for Democrats truly hates this country and regardless of who gets in office the control of the Court remains with Conservatives who will do what they always do, put country first unlike radical Democrats who offer the American people nothing but radical ideology. If Democrats win then this country really is in a downward spiral.
