How do you think the passing of RBG is going to change up the supreme court?  Will Trump get a new member in before the election?  I'm thinking this could be big

If President Trump decides to go forward with his nomination to fill Justice Ginsberg's seat, get ready for a brawl, no matter who he chooses, but particularly if he nominates Amy Coney Barrett.  Prepare for a spectacle much worse than what we saw with Brett Kavanaugh.  We knew this day was coming.

Who ever he chooses I hope and pray for them to have thick skin like Trump does, because we all know that they will go threw hell just because he choose that person.

The way Kavanaugh was treated was one of the most vile things I've ever seen......Kamala Harris cast the first stone.  Her true colors shined through right there.

Y'all don't think he would go with a liberal to try to get some of those votes do you????

So far he has keep his word and only picked from his list. However I do think it will be a woman.

I read today that he will likely pick a woman to fill the seat in the next week.  I agree that the better be on tough hided, tough willed gal because they are going to come after her with both barrels smoking.  I just really hope and Pray that he can get one seated before the election just in case he doesn't win for some reason.  I really don't want the dems to fill the seat.

The best thing the GOP could do is appoint and confirm fast. 

Kamala will have to recuse herself from the Judicial committee and they've really used up most of their #metoo bullets against Justice Kavanaugh. A conservative woman Judge would the obvious choice here and a fast confirmation takes that bullet out of the Dem Campaign gun. 

ETA: It's time for Mitch to grow a spin and start snapping necks and cashing checks. He can push this thru if he will. And any RINO that shows thru this process should be tarred and feathered. 

A beautiful, conservative, Catholic, woman with 7 kids, a husband, and an extremely demanding career.....if Barrett is the nominee, that is.

Democrats will be out in full force against her.  They have tried to skewer her in the past for her stances on abortion, ObamaCare, etc...  Suburban women will be watching this.  Already there are threats of more violent riots and arson.  More riots is not a good thing for Democrats.  

No way.

but  when obama had the chance

"Of course," said McConnell, "the American people should have a say in the court's direction. It is a president's constitutional right to nominate a Supreme Court justice, and it is the Senate's constitutional right to act as a check on the president and withhold its consent."

Supreme Court picks have often been controversial. There have been contentious hearings and floor debates and contested votes. But to ignore the nominee entirely, as if no vacancy existed?

There was no precedent for such an action since the period around the Civil War and Reconstruction. No Democratic president had made an appointment while Republicans held the Senate since 1895.

Merrick Garland Heads To Capitol Hill For What Could Be A Futile Exercise

In a speech that August in Kentucky, McConnell would say: "One of my proudest moments was when I looked Barack Obama in the eye and I said, 'Mr. President, you will not fill the Supreme Court vacancy.' "

McConnell was not alone. The 11 Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee signed a letter saying they had no intention of consenting to any nominee from Obama. No proceedings of any kind were held on Garland's appointment.

The court had to convene that October with only eight justices, divided often betwee

Here's what the Democrats are threatening to do.  Arson and riots.  Let's see how that plays out:

SCOTUS battle prompts threats, calls for arson: ‘Burn Congress down’

‘If they even TRY to replace RBG we burn the entire f—–g thing down.’

By | Fox News September 19, 2020

“If they even TRY to replace RBG we burn the entire f—–g thing down,” author Reza Aslan tweeted. He later responded to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s vow to hold a vote on President Trump’s nominee. “Over our dead bodies, literally,” he tweeted.

Author Aaron Gouveia similarly blasted McConnell’s statement, saying: “F–k no. Burn it all down.”

A Canadian political science professor called for arson, prompting accusations he made a terroristic threat. “Burn Congress down before letting Trump try to appoint anyone to SCOTUS,” Waterloo professor Emmett MacFarlane tweeted.

“Macfarlane is a professor at @UWaterloo, promoting violence against his political enemies,” he said. “If you were a young woman in his class who was a Trump supporter, would you risk being a target of his violent rage if he found out about you? Should you transfer to a different class?”

Ginsburg’s death came just weeks before the presidential election and opened the opportunity for Republicans to dramatically shift power on the Supreme Court by confirming another conservative justice. Democrats have long criticized McConnell, R-Ky., of hypocrisy given his previous refusal to hold a vote on Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland before the 2016 elections.

McConnell has maintained, however, that Garland’s confirmation was unique in that the Senate and executive branch were controlled by different parties. That isn’t the case in the wake of Ginsburg’s death.

The incredibly high stakes prompted what appeared to be panicked reactions from many on Twitter. Writer Beau Willimon threatened: “We’re shutting this country down if Trump and McConnell try to ram through an appointment before the election.”

A member of Wisconsin’s ethics commission, Scott Ross, ordered Sen. Ed Markey, D-Mass., to “burn it all down” if he couldn’t stop McConnell. “F—–g A, Ed. If you can’t shut it down, burn it down,” he said.

Other tweets didn’t contain violent threats but indicated opponents wouldn’t take Ginsburg’s replacement lying down.

“If McConnell jams someone through, which he will, there will be riots,” warned GQ writer Laura Bassett.

Those threats sure don't shine a good light on the mentality of a lot of the Dems!  Our country needs to get back to having Values

Now Nancy Pelosi is threatening to impeach Trump if he dares to proceed with his job and make a nomination.   The woman needs to be in a strait jacket.  She's crazy as a bag of rats.

Let the Dem's scream all they want they can only blame Harry Reed he's the one that changed all the rules in the senate. Mitch is only following he's lead.What goes around comes around. My only concern are the rino's like Mitt etc.

Nancy is something else!  I'm not that political but haven't they already impeached Trump, yet he is still in office do things for the greater good of us?  

Harry Reid years back opened the door for Trump to nominate -- and get an appointee approved.  If good for the goose, it's good for the gander. Right?

Just saying ......

2020 .... Let's nominate and confirm a new Supreme Court Judge ASAP ......

Republicans = Hypocrites

2016: Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas): “It has been 80 years since a Supreme Court vacancy was nominated and confirmed in an election year. There is a long tradition that you don’t do this in an election year.”

2018: Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.): “If an opening comes in the last year of President Trump’s term, and the primary process has started, we’ll wait to the next election.”

2016: Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.): “I don’t think we should be moving on a nominee in the last year of this president’s term - I would say that if it was a Republican president.”

2016: Sen. David Perdue (R-Ga.): “The very balance of our nation’s highest court is in serious jeopardy. As a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, I will do everything in my power to encourage the president and Senate leadership not to start this process until we hear from the American people.”

2016: Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa): “A lifetime appointment that could dramatically impact individual freedoms and change the direction of the court for at least a generation is too important to get bogged down in politics. The American people shouldn’t be denied a voice.”

2016: Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.): “The campaign is already under way. It is essential to the institution of the Senate and to the very health of our republic to not launch our nation into a partisan, divisive confirmation battle during the very same time the American people are casting their ballots to elect our next president.”

2016: Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.): “In this election year, the American people will have an opportunity to have their say in the future direction of our country. For this reason, I believe the vacancy left open by Justice Antonin Scalia should not be filled until there is a new president.”

2016: Sen. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.): “The Senate should not confirm a new Supreme Court justice until we have a new president.”

2016: Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Col.): “I think we’re too close to the election. The president who is elected in November should be the one who makes this decision.”

2016: Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio): “I believe the best thing for the country is to trust the American people to weigh in on who should make a lifetime appointment that could reshape the Supreme Court for generations. This wouldn’t be unusual. It is common practice for the Senate to stop acting on lifetime appointments during the last year of a presidential term, and it’s been nearly 80 years since any president was permitted to immediately fill a vacancy that arose in a presidential election year.”

2016: Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.): “I strongly agree that the American people should decide the future direction of the Supreme Court by their votes for president and the majority party in the U.S. Senate.”
