As insane as the Democrats are, I will surprised if we get through this without bloodshed..
Additional hearings will just turn into a circus.
Name the nominee.
Schedule the vote.
"Demand Justice" as in #MeToo?
Frauds. They will forge evidence and make up witnesses.
Wow. How classless. I really hope the country awakens to the Left’s true agenda. THE LEFT GETS IT’S WAY OR YOU WILL BE DESTROYED.
An WHO is being decisive??
“Until the people have spoken, there can be no consideration of a new Supreme Court justice”
The people HAVE spoken. In 2016 they empowered DJT to nominate, anytime between 1/20/17 and 1/20/21. In 2018 they empowered Senate Republicans to approve his nominees until 1/20/21.
Dems always kick over the table when they are losing.
Some guy is going to claim that Trump’s lady nominee raped him in high school?
Another reason for no hearings
Call the vote Mitch ASAP!
5-4 -> 6-3 -> 7-2
Not her seat. Her carcass occupied a chair. Time to move on.
Americans are tired of this, and see through the smears, the outrage and media propaganda. Trump has already declared he will appoint a woman, to cut-off the potential for sexual smears.
so what’s left for the Left after the above no longer works? Its street violence - and that will backfire on them even worse.
The impeachment House hearings gave GOP no witnesses and
no questioning.
Mitch should limit things, no opening BS statements, and
3 days total questioning, 6 hour days including lunch.
No character assassination allowed.
Although that would work turning off potential Dems winning
Senate seats, last time they were aweful A-Holes.
Left Created a Frankenstein They No Longer ControlSince the Warren Court, the left has elevated the importance of the Supreme Court by relying on courts for legislation instead of Congress. It is also the left that has deferred to the courts during battles between the executive and legislative branches. Further, it is the left that has looked to the courts to implement their policy goals when they failed to convince a majority of Americans to vote for these goals.
Now, with President Trump on the cusp of selecting his third Supreme Court justice, who will likely change the balance of the Supreme Court for a generation, the left is panicking. Liberals now realize they have created a Frankenstein monster that they may no longer be able to control.
The left will likely choose between two strategies going forward: either continue to hold the court as the supreme legislative body of the land or delegitimize it. Their choice will likely rest on how plausible they believe it will be to eventually pack the courts.
While the number of Supreme Court justices has been set at nine for more than a century, the Constitution does not stipulate the number. Congress has the power to decide. If Joe Biden is elected president and Democrats win enough seats in the House and Senate, this could be the left’s strategy.
However, in the absence of a Biden win or congressional approval, the left may very well determine that the Supreme Court will no longer be their go-to for legislative action. They may then seek to delegitimize the institution as un-democratic.
In honor of the greatness of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, there should be three justices nominated instead of one.
I say all three should be Hillsdale graduates with law degrees from Liberty university.
The democrats started all of this chaos when they took down Robert Bork.
Kaslin, these protesters are simply talking good games.
