Ginsburg

That's all well and good, and I agree to some extent, however, the way she hung on to the job for political reasons, sleeping thru hearings and such, tarnished her image to me.

Look on the bright side, she lived long enough for Trump to replace her.
 
Apparently Grassley, Collins, and Romney promised not to vote for a new SCOTUS appointment until after the election. I suspect the cover will be that there could be a constitutional crisis in case of a 4-4 vote by the SCOTUS to determine critical issues for the 2020 election.

If that's true that means 4 republicans won't vote for a new nominee which means 49-51. We're screwed then.
 
Grassley will not be the one senator to screw that up. Romney, Collins and Murkowski will letting Pence come in and cast the tie breaking vote.
 
Ruth Bader Ginsburg hopes Garland vote happens 'sooner rather than later' - CNNPolitics

Washington (CNN)Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg told an audience Wednesday night that she thought "cooler heads will prevail" when asked about the Senate's refusal to hold hearings to fill the seat of Justice Antonin Scalia, adding she hoped it would happen "sooner rather than later."

The comments were an elaboration of Ginsburg's belief that the Supreme Court should have nine members.

Last May, she told an audience in New York: "Eight, as you know, is not a good number for a multi-member court."

And yet Any Dem on tomorrow's shows will whine that Trump and McConnel are evil to do the very thing Ruth is very publically on record calling to be done.
 
The DMC has their panties in a wad over the GOP doing EXACTLY what the DMC advocated. People like Schumer Pelosi Clinton and even Ruth herself .
Now it would be the worse thing even and people are threatening fires riots and loss of live if Trump et al do it.
 
The best Twitter comments today:

RGB had a prolonged illness but stayed on the court hoping for someone other than Obama and Trump to replace her. It’s not Trump’s fault that we have a vacancy now.

If the House can impeach in an election year, why can’t the President and Senate fill a Supreme Court vacancy?

If we let RBG decide when she will be replaced, then we have to let Trump do the same for the presidency.

To troll the Dems, Trump should announce that he is appointing himself to the SCOTUS and will also serve as president if re-elected.
