The historic precedents fit the president’s actions. Despite the lies and hysteria of the Democrats, left-wing activists, and the propaganda media, the historic fact is that President Trump is simply following precisely the precedent set in 1800. There is nothing to suggest a President cannot nominate a replacement if a court position is vacant up until the day his or her term ends.
Furthermore, given the hatred and vitriol with which Democrats have tried to destroy President Trump, why should he worry about their hand wringing and whining?
Trump supporters elected him to change Washington.
He has an astonishing opportunity to nominate a third Supreme Court Justice and truly define the judicial tone of America for at least a generation.
Leader McConnell has carefully nurtured his members and seems to have the votes to confirm a nominee if they can meet the standards of intelligence, education, experience, and character which is appropriate for a Supreme Court Justice.
The viciousness of the slurs and slander heaped upon Justice Brett Kavanaugh and his family may be repeated by an anti-religious propaganda media and the hysterically wound up activists of the left.
That will only harden Republican resolve to vote “yes” and will further alienate the Kamala Harris-Joe Biden ticket from the country.
President Trump is about to make history again.
It is fun to watch.
