Nasty obama can’t even wait until she’s buried to get into his politics. That’s the dems for you. Tell him elections matter, he and hillary lost.
And nobody cares.
HOW ABOUT NOOOOOO! Unicorn Fist raised high!
bammy has no say in this matter.
Emphasis on the word ‘Former’
Exactly. He is not POTUS anymore.
“...the standard they set in 2016”
The “standard” is that the party that controls the Senate controls the SCOTUS hearing process and the vote. It has nothing to do with Garland.
You corrupt Marxist bastards didn’t control the Senate. Somebody once said “Elections have consequences”
First FORMER president to open his mouth so much about what is going on AFTER he left office...
No respect whatsoever...Classless...
I expect Trump to do the work I voted for him to do.
Never do tomorrow what you can do today.
who dat? new country.
Trump had fair warning of Ginsburg’s fate and plenty of time to make a choice.
Like many others here I’m sure, I have been anxiously waiting for Barack Obama to weigh in on this topic so I would know what the proper approach to this matter would be.
Barry, light up another joint and play some more video games. No one cares what you think. The legacy of your presidency will always be two terms of Donald Trump, just as RBG’s legacy will be the term of whomever Trump chooses to fill her spot.
She had a chance to step down early in Obama's 1st term, when the D's had control of Washington.
So instead she releases a deathbed statement demanding that her replacement take place under a new President.
What type of person holds onto power until the bitter end?
Also, John Fund tweeted that it's imperative that a new SCOTUS justice is confirmed because of the upcoming election shenanigans.
Elections have consequences.
Trump has a phone and a pen.
Harry Reid changed the rules and you cheered.
And obama, you did the same thing. Except, you lost the vote in the senate with not enough support to even get a vote.
Sorry......WE WON
