That’s right, get Trump to nominate someone for the Supreme Court who cannot possibly get confirmed, due to GOP opposition. That would be real smart. NOT.

I am not sure I would care to see it depend on the Senate.

I wish Trump would cut loose all these backstage groupies like Chris Ruddy...he’s a sleazy, backstabbing jerk and Trump has no need for him.

This is one of the more insane suggestions from LIB lunatics. She’ll die soon. Nominate the most strict conservative. Ram them in...no quarter to the Constitution - hating LIB lunatics. MAGA!!!

Why negotiate at all? why concede anything? they wouldn’t.

The liberals messed up by forcing the removal of the filibuster on Gorsuch. Thank you!!

Now we can put ANYONE on the bench with impunity, as long as he is in the list of 20 names already proposed by Trump and vetted as a conservative judges.

Give them nothing, and take away from them everything!

I’m not believing that Trump would make this kind of deal.

It would be an interesting question to ask Gingsberg who she would like to see replace her....

Dollars to donuts she says Michelle Obama...

The story doesn’t really make sense since the Senate is not going to be part of any bargain with Ginsburg.

I'd be OK with the plan if Trump and Mitch, or better yet Grassley made a deal to not confirm him.

That'd be a winner.

Garland is a certified Liberal.
Southern man don’t need him around, anyhow...

Imagine the following scenario:

A bank robber shoots the guard at a bank, demands and gets a bag of money, and runs out of the bank.

The police are called and give chase. During the chase several officers are injured.

The getaway car crashes after killing several pedestrians in a crosswalk and the suspect is apprehended, cuffed, and put in the back of a patrol car.

On the way to jail the suspect offers the police a deal. He will give back half of the money if they repair his car for him, return his gun, and let him go.

A "deal" for Republicans to needlessly give up a seat on the Supreme Court makes just about as much sense.

[Cutting a deal for Ginsburg to retire and then nominating Garland] actually sounds like a brilliant plan except for the small detail of virtually everything involved in it being insane.

My thoughts exactly...

Mr. Ruddy trying to be relevant by telling Trump how to handle SCOTUS rather than describing what Trump has on his own mind.....

I agree about this is a non-serious discussion.

This is all Ginsburg has to live for so she won’t retire. She is like all liberals, sacrificing for the greater good is something other people should do.

I don’t view replacing an old leftist with a younger leftist a very sound strategy
