BREAKING: Lindsey Graham gives his support to President Trump's efforts to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court
Lindsey Graham's Twitter Account ^ | 9/18/20 | Lindsey Graham

Posted on 09/19/2020 11:35:32 AM PDT by Yossarian

Here is the Twitter feed last updated 11 minutes ago from Senator Lindsey Graham:



Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
US Senate candidate, SC

The two biggest changes regarding the Senate and judicial confirmations that have occurred in the last decade have come from Democrats.

#1



Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
US Senate candidate, SC

* Harry Reid changed the rules to allow a simple majority vote for Circuit Court nominees dealing out the minority.

* Chuck Schumer and his friends in the liberal media conspired to destroy the life of Brett Kavanaugh and hold that Supreme Court seat open.

#2



Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
US Senate candidate, SC

In light of these two events, I will support President @realDonaldTrump in any effort to move forward regarding the recent vacancy created by the passing of Justice Ginsburg.

#3



Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
US Senate candidate, SC

I know Jaime Harrison -- who opposed the Kavanaugh nomination and joined the mob in the destruction of this fine man -- will oppose ANY Trump nominee.

I hope the people of South Carolina know that as well.

#4



Lindsey Graham
@LindseyGrahamSC
US Senate candidate, SC
Replying to @LindseyGrahamSC

Jaime Harrison will be a loyal foot soldier in the cause of the radical liberals to destroy America as we know it.

As to me – I will be part of the Resistance and oppose their radical liberal agenda as they try to fundamentally change America.

This nomination/confirmation is more important to the future of the Republic than a fleeting Senate majority.

A confirmed conservative justice could stop the dems from stealing the election.

The confirmation fight will probably have a significant impact on the election, including POTUS and the balance/control of both houses of congress. Outrageous behavior by the left during confirmation, along with more riots and "mostly peaceful" protests, might benefit some Republicans, but don't forget that we lost the House of Representatives right after the Kavanaugh fiasco. It could be a mixed bag.

“Collins and Romney will vote against Trump, you can bet on that.”

If we have the votes to confirm SCOTUS nominee without Collins and voting No helps her in Maine Senate election, then she can vote No.

I actually think the vote will occur after election date during the lame duck session. Between Nov 4 and 29th.

Very good! I hope the other GOP senators realize that their own future depends on this, whether they like Trump or not.

“All of them realize leaving a 4-4 court in place is dangerous and not what our forefathers intended.”

The first supreme court had 6 members.

It looks like McSally is a yes because I just got a campaign email talking about how important it is that she beats Mark Kelly so he can’t stop Trump’s pick. I sent her $20 and I don’t live in AZ.

>>OK, that’s one of the question-mark Senators making it clear he’ll do the right thing.

Graham was never a question mark on this... it’s still before the election. He would only become a question mark if the confirmation vote was AFTER the election.

It takes at least 12 hours to lightning poll enough spread to get to the interval you're paid for.

Linda's internal polling came in favorable to Trump appointing #ACB. That's why LightLoafers staff committed him to #ACB.

Further, it's rapidly dawning on the GOP that an empty #SCOTUS seat would be an ant picnic inviting Democrats to turn out en masse.

The rapid yet judicious appointment of Justice Amy Coney Barrett would be demoralizing not just to Biden's base, but to the same lazy Berniebros who passed on Clinton last time.

You have to admit, the timing of RBG’s passing couldn’t be better for our side.

The RINOS are slowly moving into sight...CAREFUL! Make no sudden move lest you spook them and they flee back into the forest..let them get a little closer before you attempt to tag and release. They’re a skittish bunch.

Grassley could kill it. Of the uncommitted’s he’s the one that could kill it dead. They must do this to take it off the board as THE election is issue. RBG’s vacancy will electrify the rats bring them out in droves. If they replace her they will be angry as hell but it will be moot. If this was the rats the vote would be done by the end of next week.

I think the Rats were already as motivated as they could be, it's just piling on now.
