Just waiting to see how fast the same republicans will try and push for a nominee in the next 6 weeks that stalled Obama for a year. The hypocrisy of politics. Its how to better themselves first, the companies they work for second, & the party third. Maybe the country makes the top 10. If I could go back 30 years, I'd get involved in politics. My vote would be for sale to the highest bidder for sure.
This is different. Barack was not running for re-election when he nominated Garland. Trump should nominate now and make it an election issue.
^^^ This.
That was waaay different. And frankly, even if it wasn't - tough s**t. This is politics and politics have become war. War is hell. Get Amy in there ASAP...!
Just days before her death, as her strength waned, Ginsburg dictated this statement to her
granddaughter Clara Spera: "My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed."
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.
Name one POTUS who has not wished nor taken advantage of something that will cement their legacy for decades after leaving office.
An open SCOTUS seat is something US presidents dream about; and getting two or three nominations through ranks as a super wet dream.
Even if DT is voted out in November, his current and future (replacing RGB) nominated judges will influence things for one, two or more generations. Given the current bent of Justice Robert's court, he himself likely would welcome a firm "moral religious majority" on court
Mark my words, RGB's body won't even be cold before Mitch McConnell and his instruments have begun going down a list (likely long since prepared) for candidates. Only main question is whether announcement will come before election day, or after....
