No nominee before the election and nobody expected her to last or serve through another four years, so nothing really changed here.

The Court is now, technically, 5-3 heading into a possible Presidential Election court case. But CJ Roberts cannot determine the majority now.

I would love to see a conservative replacement before January. But I don't want the politics of that process to impair the reelection of President Trump. If the Democrats get control they will just pack the Court using this issue as the fairness vector.

That being said.... the Kavanaugh hearings were Democrat killers and this replacement process might be similar. But the proximity of the election would probably give the Rats too much cover. But if Trump wins, and we lose the Senate, all bets are off and it should be full steam ahead.

SOLID WIN!! The confirmation hearing will be a huge boost for the election of President Trump… If they wait till after the election… It will be a huge boost for President Trump.

Either way, it’s a huge win

“ A few days before her death, she dictated a statement to her granddaughter Clara Spera, “My most fervent wish is that i I will not be replaced until a new president is installed.” Sorry, Ms Ginsburg; we are not waiting five years to get another justice.

Murkowski announced she won’t to confirm new SC nominee until after innauguration. Expect Romney and other Rino’s to follow suit.

I wonder if our President knew something the other day when he named his list of potential nominees.

Murkowski hates Trump. Not surprising. Alaska really needs to do better.

because Biden is looking so pathetic.

That is what we think. The liberals think Biden is looking strong and coasting to a comfortable victory.

A nasty confirmation hearing will help Trump. Also it will remind people of the nasty Kamala behavior towards Kavanaugh
