Such tolerance.

Hopefully the Secret Service and DOJ have also received copies of those tweets.

Why ? Is that because a liberal majority held Senate would wait to allow the potential new POTUS to have the opportunity to decide if that’s the appropriate appointee ?

Because in 2016 with 250+ days until the election, McConnell wouldn't hold hearings for Merrick Garland

Bump @MontyPython

No way that idiot answers. He routinely steps on his member and just ignores being called on it and moves on.

This seat will absolutely be filled before the election. You can't have an even number of SCOTUS votes with the upcoming mail in ballot BS going on.


Will be filled 100%!

What every Republican senator has said about filling a Supreme Court vacancy in an election year
"McConnell acted differently in 2016. Justice Antonin Scalia died more than eight months before that year's presidential election and McConnell said the Senate should not vote on President Barack Obama's nominee because voters should be given a say by way of choosing the next president."

Let me explain to you, how it was explained to me on here from at least 3 liberal posters , when I asked a similar question about multiple liberal leaders that are on video taking a strong border and illegal immigrants taking American jobs and burdening our health care system position .... Their political position has “ Evolved “ .

I'm curious, would you support a new judge being pushed through if Hillary were president and Dems had a majority in the senate?

I would support it if she was replacing a justice appointed by a dem president and not support it if she was replacing a justice appointed by a rep. president.

You deflected from my question I see . Let me ask again more directly .. would a liberal held Senate majority hold up the confirmation until after Jan. 21, 2021 ?

I think she, like many others, never envisioned a HRC loss.

She should have seen my prediction right here on the forum before the 2016 election.

 

[1972 Grad]

Did someone do a study to determine 9 partisan Justices was the optimal number ?

If they weren't partisan, it wouldn't make any difference which side picked them.

Hold up the confirmation of a Trump appointee made 6 weeks before an election? I would certainly hope so.

 

[1972 Grad]

That's entirely possible. McConnell is a hypocrite deluxe

And, of course, nobody on your side is.

She may have seen your multiple predictions that Biden would never be the nominee.

 

[0nelilreb]

I would support it if she was replacing a justice appointed by a dem president and not support it if she was replacing a justice appointed by a rep. president.

That shouldn’t matter if to you with Trump because he seems to like appointing a constitutionalist judge to SCOTUS . So why wait ... unless you want it to be packed with partisan judges .

Lol....

Oh what a rain that would be

What difference does it make which side appoints these non-partisan jurists, who only interpret the law?

 

[0nelilreb]

Why ? We spend most of our time complaining about congress not doing its job and now you want them to stop doing their jobs ?

 

[1972 Grad]

I underestimated the depths to which the Democratic party would stoop.

2-3 will be constitutionalist. That’s a very good nonpartisan % on your continuum scale .

 

[luthervol]

When you say constitutionalist I hear right leaning.
It's become a code word that has different meanings to different people.

Bump @MontyPython

Nope.

I think a majority of Americans want to have a conservative-leaning but balanced SCOTUS. It just makes sense. A 6-3 court doesn't achieve this goal.

I'm no longer concerned honestly. GOP may or may not jam it through, but I believe the Senate will go 50-50 with tie votes broken by the new VP (Harris). So if we have a 6-3 court, I td will be relatively brief and then the new administration will simply add 4 new SCOTUS judges.

Problem solved.

Could u imagine the CC that would occur if something about the election went to the court and it was 4-4?

Oh the FEELZ ... lets mourn the ole girl forever and never go against her incredible leftist agenda accomplishments. Lol

Then, Roberts makes the decision, while the Deep State has his balls in the wringer?
