Wondering what kind of dirt the left will manufacture on Amy Coney Barrett when Trump nominates her... She's a great mother who has adopted several children, so I guess they will manipulate that and say she is an abusive mother. After all, mothers should be able to abort their babies right up until the moment of birth, even during dilation right?
All RBG has to do is hang on for another 12 months. Then it will be in the last year of Trump's term, so he won't be allowed to nominate anyone, right? It should be left to the next president. That's what McConnell claims. Maybe that's what she is holding on for.

Hmm. Nope. Trump did what his predecessor was unable to do, and increase his party's representation in the US Senate.
RGB has to last until the end of 2020. 23 Months.
Elections have consequences and Trump is sitting pretty on this one.
Its the duty of the collective to obey and a violation to question anything. Not sure if they have to take an oath but they must follow the instructions from "leaders". Its a masterful form of manipulation.
Let's say, for example, RBG was in a coma. Comas can last a long time and even when you come out of one as a young adult, there are severe health repercussions for years. Who decides when it's time for her to resign? Are there any rules?
Well the good thing is that it does not matter, because RBG is not in a coma. Filmmakers of a new Ginsburg documentary reported to CNN that they spoke with Ginsburg on Tuesday, and that the Supreme Court justice sounded “strong and cheerful.” “She is writing opinions and continuing to stay on top of work,” the filmmakers said.
If a SCTOUS judge could be removed because of illness, it would be when 2/3 of the House and Senate agree to boot that judge out.
On the topic of impeachment, I don't think that is enough. Impeachment is like being tried in court and removal from office is the guilty verdict. Removal from office should happen more often to federal politicians and judges.

I just read on American Thinker that Ginsburg hasnt been seen in 54 days! Has anyone read or seen anything to the contrary?
Saw her chatting about her recovery on the news recently. She says her ribs are improving rapidly, and she has started doing her exercises with her trainer, although modified for the ribs. So yeah.
Maybe you should not pay attention to American potato.

Oh don't worry. She is alive and well and writing opinions from home and voiced cheerfulness and intent to start working out soon,stated documentary writers who spoke to her Tuesday of this week.
FYI: Some Trump allies think Ruth Bader Ginsburg is hiding or dead. It Started on QAnon. She’s kept a low profile while recovering from cancer surgery. Some Right-wing meanies turned that against the liberal Supreme Court Justice.
Top figures in the pro-Trump media are claiming Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is hiding a secret illness or is even dead, elevating a bizarre new claim from the fringe QAnon conspiracy theorists.
Yesterday, former White House adviser Sebastian Gorka suggested on Twitter that Ginsburg, who has cancelled public appearances since undergoing surgery to remove cancerous lung growths in late December, might be hiding a medical condition. Pro-Trump internet characters are suggesting that Democrats are covering up Ginsburg’s near-death state. Some even claim that she’s already dead, but Democrats won’t admit it because they don’t want Trump to fill her seat.
“Q,” was one of the first to suggest that Ginsburg’s absences were part of a cover-up about her health. On January 5, Q claimed that Ginsburg was only being kept alive with illicit drugs.
Other right-wing personalities began actively pushing conspiracy theories about Ginsburg this month. Jacob Wohl a young Trump supporter and internet troll who attempted to smear Special Counsel Robert Mueller with a sex-assault hoax in November, claimed three weeks ago that Ginsburg would resign January 11.
When Ginsburg didn’t resign, Wohl pivoted to suggesting that she was secretly dead, and demanded video of Ginsburg doing a sudoku as proof-of-life. Wohl has also pushed an online petition to “impeach” Ginsburg, which has failed to meet its 5,000 signature goal.
On Twitter, the #WheresRuth hashtag was driven largely by conservative actor James Woods, who promotes conspiracy theories to his nearly 2 million Twitter followers. Woods tweeted the hashtag twice, racking up nearly 13,000 retweets each time.
Wayne Allyn Root, a conservative pundit who opened for Trump at a rally in 2018 compared Ginsburg’s absence to Weekend at Bernie’s, a 1989 movie in which two men prop up a corpse and dress it up with sunglasses so they can party longer.
Gorka and others claim that attendance at the State of the Union is mandatory for justices, and that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) delayed the address so Ginsburg wouldn’t have to attend.
In fact, though, Supreme Court justices are not required to attend the State of the Union address. Ginsburg and four other justices skipped Trump’s address last year. And we all know Speaker Pelosi delayed the State of the Union because of the Trump-instigated government shutdown, not as part of an elaborate cover-up to help Ginsburg.
Don't fall for this sick nonsense. Although in multiple threads on this forum this week, I have seen her name and various false statements re her.

"For example"?
You mean she's not comatose?
