RIP!

We all knew it was close.
In a time of mourning, the left is going to lose their minds!

If Trump wins the election though, then clearly he would have the undisputed right to name the replacement.

Amy Coney Barrett... come on down!

It’ll be harder for the dems to drag her through the mud, though I believe they will try.

Pelosi has no say over judges. Only the Senate gets a voice.

Ok then then the Dems will add seats there is no where in the constitution that says they can't. It will open the floodgates.

The Dems aren't gonna let Mitch get away with his corrupt hypocrisy this time. if you thought the kavanaugh hearings were polarized those Senators who are in blue or purple states Collins, Gardner, and others are gonna need to think long and hard.

Be careful what you wish for. The women vote is already galvanized, Trump replacing Ruth will further galvanize that vote...both sides actually but I dont see this as a positive for Trump.
