Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden on Sunday called on the U.S. Senate to hold off voting on President Trump's Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett, claiming that the right thing to do would be to wait to fill the vacant seat on the court until after January's inauguration.

"The Senate has to stand strong for our democracy," Biden said in remarks Sunday afternoon. He went on to say that senators should "take a step back from the brink," and that "this is a time to de-escalate."

President Trump told "Fox & Friends" co-host Pete Hegseth that he thinks his nominee to the Supreme Court could be confirmed ahead of the Nov. 3 election, saying there's a "tremendous amount of time."

What exactly does he think “our democracy” is?

One where senators don’t do their job?

And what does “this is a time to de-escalate” mean in this context?

That is some really weird choices of works.

The court is not intended to be democratic. (And neither was the senate for that matter, it’s present sickness may be laid squarely at the feet of the 17th amendment which many believe was a serious error).

I agree with Rendell on lowered biteme expectations it bitme’s favor.

It Hidem merely limits his drooling to a small percentage of the debate, say, less than 10% of the time, Bitem will be proclaimed the “winner”.
