The second-ranking Democrat in the Senate has admitted that they are powerless to stop the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, unless Republicans change their mind and side with them.

Sen. Dick Durbin, who has been on the Senate Judiciary Committee since 1997, told ABC News on Sunday morning that Barrett's confirmation was all-but guaranteed.

'We can slow it down perhaps a matter of hours, maybe days at the most,' he told George Stephanopoulos on This Week.

'But we can't stop the outcome.'

The logical consequence to that big farce they pulled with Kavanaugh.

They will simply try to smear her in an attempt to delegitimize any opinion she issues. Expect virtually every news article during her tenure to read something like, “the majority opinion was written by controversial Justice Amy Coney Barret.”

No, they won’t smear her that much. They’ll use her as a prop to attack POTUS.

The Demrats & Durbin should be in the Dustbin of history. That’s where they want us bitter-clingers, deplorables, dog-faced pony soldiers, non-essentials. See how they roll...arrogantly...right in our faces. Right JoeJoe?

This must be a doubly bitter pill for the dems. If Ginsburg had retired during the Obama years....but that didn’t happen did it.

They only have RBG to blame.

She was fighting cancer during the Obama years and should have resigned.

But, for whatever reason, she held on and the Lord took her during Trump’s term.

I see this as PROOF that God has a sense of humor.

I love their tears. They want to destroy America, so I'm going to enjoy watching them cry when they fail.

“Give up, and stop trying to destroy her.”

Because the support base of the Democratic party are full-on-crazies the people leading that base have no choice but to die on every hill down to the last one.

Humor maybe be not but possibly a wake up call since RGB passed away on start of the “Day of Judgment” in the Hebrew calendar.
