Unfortunately, it seems to me that she has an argument. If the situation were reversed, we would complain.
Wrong. Them being on Trump’s list is Trump’s doing not THEIR doing.
If the situation were reversed, would our side have launched all these recount demands in the first place?????
“Unfortunately, it seems to me that she has an argument. If the situation were reversed, we would complain.”
I might agree, had he been nominated, but for now, he is just stated to be on a list of those qualified to serve. No conflict there. None.
Not like, say Elana Kagan ruling on Obamacare cases, or Ginsberg publicly speaking contemptuously about our Constitution, and disparaging the incoming president. Will Ginsberg recuse all Trump Administration cases. I think not.
If Trump came out tomorrow and listed every Obama-appointed judge in the country as a potential Supreme Court nominee, would they all be forced to recuse themselves from every case related to the Trump administration?
Dems are never forced to say who they’d nominate, so this is not an argument.
