RBG scare: David Axelrod warns Supreme Court vacancy fight could 'tear this country apart'
Washington Examiner ^ | Aug. 23, 2019 | Daniel Chaitin

That didn't take long.

A former Obama adviser set the stage for a potentially nasty confirmation fight in the Senate next year within an hour of the Supreme Court announcing Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg recently completed three weeks of radiation treatment after doctors found a localized cancerous tumor on her pancreas.

Ginsburg, who is 86, has battled various illnesses over the last 20 years. The Supreme Court said in a statement Friday that she “tolerated the treatment well" and concluded that there is no evidence of disease elsewhere in her body.

I got you. Trouble is, too many that are supposed to on our side refuse to face reality. That is just talk they say. They are not really going to do anything.

When someone publically announces that are going to kill you when they get back in power,it is best to take them at their word. And prepare accordingly. If they insists on having it, what difference does 6 months to a year make. They ready, let them start.

It is good to hear from you Brother. I know you won't back down an inch. And I won't let you down.

‘tear this country apart’
Democrats have played that card so many times the law of diminishing returns is in effect.

************************************************************

Going forward we can expect this same warning if a Republican is elected President. The blood will be on irresponsible deplorables who voted for the him/her (eh....they will say). The next Republican will not be as strong as Trump, and will be easily taken out.

If that is the way its gotta be. So be it. Whether our side realizes it or not, we are in a fight for our lives. It is not President Trump they hate, it is us. He only personalizes us. If one of us does not believe that we are in a fight for our lives, let them win. They will enlighten you shortly.

Very well stated!

I read this as a confession that they have another rape hoax lined up.

Next one up will be a woman. Trump calculated well on that one.

It’s sad that we’ve been reduced to waiting for someone to die, like ghouls, to launch the next round of political infighting. Damn the left, for this is their doing.

I have no better solution, however. Winning the next court fight is necessary to save the republic. What choice do we have?

WHY was an exception made for her???,p> As Omoeba said, at some point you've just gotta give Granny a pain pill.

...oh, and something about at a certain point you've got a large enough house.

He obviously doesn't apply the rules to his own side.

It would be good enough for him. Never thought of that. And we could just leave him out there to twist in the wind, not defend him like we had to Justice Thomas and Justice Kavanaugh.

Or they would support him to block Trump initiatives permanently on the court. Dumb idea.

I think the next one up is Judge Amy Coney-Barrett whose Catholicism and pro-life positions is of enormous concern to Dianne Feinstein who has attacked Judge Coney-Barrett for exactly that. IMAGINE, if you will, the attacks from Harris/Spartacus and national dems. It’s going to make the Kavanaugh hearings look like a Sunday School picnic.
