She is being consistent. She disregarded the U.S. constitution throughout her judicial career and substituted her own wishes.
On her death bed, RBG allegedly said her most fervent wish was to not be replaced until a new president is installed.
Nothing about saving her immortal soul.
Well guess what, Ruthie....after Donald gets reelected in a landslide, he’d be the one replacing you.
If Democrats had their way, they would claim a POTUS could not appoint a SCOTUS replacement after the mid-terms.
It is silly and childish....typical socialist, because they would NEVER abide by such rules if they had power.
Did Democrats hesitate to impeach Trump because it was an election year?
There is your answer.
Someone on another thread made this observation:
FoxNews reported that Ginsburg supposedly told her granddaughter that it was her last wish that her seat not be filled by this President. If so, it really puts the LIE to chief justice ROBERTS assertion that there are no Democrat Justices and no Republican Justices.
If Trump fills the seat, they will not be involved in any election dispute. I predict they will recuse themselves, depending on the case.
I’m hearing a lot about RBG’s “legacy as a trailblazer” and similar. How well known was she before Clinton appointed her? Her entire fame is built around being the liberal justice most likely to die while Trump is President. In 2008, how many people even knew who she was?
Democrats expect their votes to count even more once they’re dead!
The Supreme Court seat belongs to the people, not to the appointed judge. RBG forgot that a long time ago. Her preferences mean zero.
This is really so SIMPLE. We should simply say to Dems, “What would you do in the same situation? Of course! That’s what we are going to do.”
Why should there be 2 different standards?
When facing my own demise my fervent wish was that my children and their families follow Jesus. Never thought about work.
“Equally important, a 6-3 constitutionalist majority on the Court would serve as a bullwark for the survival of the Republic.”
The court would be 5-4 constitutionalist because Roberts can NOT be relied upon to save the Republic.
Especially when you looked the other way when there was a high level conspiracy to undermine the duly elected POTUS.
RBG was too devoted to the law to ask for special privilege because she was an 'elite' - (and on her death bed no less.) I don't believe RBG made the request - I believe her granddaughter is lying.
How could she hear her from under that house?

Her death bed statement is like 99.99999% of the news —LIES!! When I’m on my deathbed, I’m going to ask God for forgiveness...not if my son can build and remodel homes...
