This is for all the marbles folks. Checkmate. Prepare for war.
Let the death of liberalism begin!
I look forward to President Trump appointing a justice who is as close to Scalia as possible.
Winning!
However, now the problem is: Flake, McStain, Collins, Murkowski, who else?
Correctly.
with the right choice we could go to 5.5 to 3.5 on most decisions. Now if just that Ginsberg would go and we hit the bonanza. We MUST ensure we get more conservatives in the senate just in case these selections go past Jan 1st.
Good luck. Only the Republicans can screw this up, which I do not think they will. It will also put pressure on red state Dems up for Senate re-election. Vote against a good nominee, and make the red state people mad, or vote for the nominee, and make the “progressives” mad.
Could be a win, win win.
Good riddance!
Just raised the stakes for the midterms. Will this bring out the republicans? Hope so.
Doesn’t change the 5-4 outlook of the court. Just makes it more solid.
Will Kennedy be only one?
“Senator McConnell...it’s Merrick Garland calling on line 2...”
Why would McConnell be sweating? He can pass Trumps pick of a strong Conservative the same way he passed Gorsuch.
Unfortunately, so will flake, mccain, collins and murkowski.
It’ll take two months for some name to come up and it would be late August before the vote comes up. You can anticipate McCain and Flakey-dude voting against the guy, along the ‘Cork-screw’.
Only need majority to confirm Supreme Court.
Absolutely agree!
