No. We don’t have to be “nice” to Democrats anymore.

I guess he won’t object to Trump nominating someone now, then.

I’m sure that’s exactly what he would say if the shoe was on the other foot.

Appointing a judge now actually DEFUSES the situation. Can’t get motivated to vote for the court pick if it is already filled.

And it prevents a 4-4 ruling by a split court over Democrat vote fraud / lawfare.

“Ginsburg’s replacement should be chosen by election victor”

That would be Donald Trump. You are the victor and president until the day you leave office. Your term doesn’t “end” because it is approaching. It’s always approaching.

Confirmation may be the problem.

The Demo-rat ‘leftists’ see it as the end for them. They’ve all got their pants in major knots if they haven’t messed them already....many say they now have no chance to win the election, which of course evidences they intended to cheat.

McConnel has already said tonight that he is going to get whoever President Trump nominates confirmed. He has gotten more than 200 judicial nominees confirmed for President Trump. Right now is not the time to spreading the kind of nonsense that you are pedaling.

Yurtle SAYS he’s going to do all kinds of stuff. If I’m wrong, I’ll eat my hat. The one made of meatloaf.

For a man of God, you have very little faith. The timing of Ginsberg’s death was a god send. Mitch McConnel has managed to get more conservative justices confirmed than anyone in recent history. He also did a great job blocking Obama nominees. Mitch has focussed on shaping the judicial branch for decades. He is the right man for the job right now. The fact that you are not aware of this reflects poorly on your predictive abilities.

They ‘said’....Ginsberg’s dying message:... “My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed.”

I don’t believe that for even a nano second.

Even if she did say something like that, it is improper to suggest that a deceased justice's *wishes* have any bearing on the matter. In related news, people in Hell fervently wish for ice water.

You have given a very excellent analysis. I think this is a gift from God for Trump, also.

obama is a traitor to this country and should go get a job with the mullas that he loves so much.
