Yeah but ya all know the Dem motto “Oh that was different” if the shoe were on the other foot the commies would have nominated someone last night
Despite what Biden claimed, Obamas nominee was not brought up for a vote in 2016 because that was his last year in office, the year he nominated Garland, and no president has had his nominee approved under that scenario with an opposition party controlling the Senate since the 1800s and Republicans controlled the Senate in 2016.
This is not currently the case for Trump as the President and majority Senate are now of the same party. Therefore Trump gets his pick and Obama doesnt! That’s how it works!
Another dead liberal Democrat wants to vote.
That's how it's supposed to work. So far, Mitch is holding firm; we'll see how the GOP stands to be counted.
The bottom line:
..If a president and the Senate agree on a Supreme Court nominee, timing has never stopped them. We all recognize that ass our laws are increasingly dictated by SCOTUS, the selection of SCOTUS becomes more and more critical. So....
Right now the ball is in our court and we intend to play the game the way we wish. If that upsets Obama/Demo-rats...tough chitty chitty bang bang......Let the DemoRats raise hell, they would most assuredly give the GOP the finger if roles were reversed.
I don’t recall anything in the Constitution about a SCJ’s wishes when it comes to being replaced.
Also in 2016 they were 9 months out from the election not 40 days, and unlike now promising to not secede as they are this election, and threatening further rioting if it doesn’t go their way. Throw in the gazillion of mail in ballots impossible to authenticate.....the entire situation has no comparrison to 2016.
RBG didn’t think the Constitution was totally binding. She said she also looked at European law for guidance.
The Pennsylvania hack court commandeered the PA legislature and unilaterally created a laa unto themselves when they ruled that mail-in ballots can be counted THREE DAYS AFTER the presidential election.
It is long past time that the GOP played by the same hack-for-hack rules that the filthy scum democrats employ continuously.
Trump needs to appoint the most fire breathing hard right conservative judge imaginable. I say appoint Jeanine Pirro or Laura Ingraham or Ann Coulter.
Nothing less will suffice.

Tell the Dems they’ll learn who the nominee is after the GOP passes the confirmation vote.
As to my view of filling a Supreme Court vacancy in 2020, I’d encourage you to review these most recent statements.
NBC News https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/democrats-warn-gop-don-t-fill-supreme-court-vacancy-2020-n1234885"
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., chairman of the Judiciary Committee, which reviews Supreme Court nominations, said he's prepared to advance a nominee if a vacancy occurs this year.
"Yeah. We'll cross that bridge. After [Brett] Kavanaugh, the rules have changed as far as I'm concerned," he told reporters, citing the intense battle over Trump's most recent Supreme Court nominee in 2018, who was narrowly confirmed. "We'll see what the market will bear if that ever happens."
Nov 21, 2014 ... Elections have consequences."
TRUMP for POTUS 2020

Barack Hussein Obama, the “Magic Negro, with His “Magic Wand” is no more!!!” Very few folks heed or listen to a word this fool, Buffoon utters..period!! Hey, Obama, why don’t you and lady Michelle move in to basement cave of Biden & Harris?
Have ya caught Biden & Harris lately. Biden is dead on his feet after one rally where not one supporter is there....and, Kamala baby just got told to take a hike and leave a Venezuelan Eatery in Miami!!! The owner threw her out, telling her...you are not welcome, here!!!
Exactly.
This is SCOTUS not the House of Lords.
The seat they have is vacated the minute they are.
Pirro? Oh bleep yeah! Ingraham? Maybe. Not unshakeable to my mind. Coulter? No way! I have memories of her drooling over Mitt Romney a while back. Instant disqualifier. Forever!
