God works in wonderous ways...
One person suggested a trade.
Wait for appointment until after election BUT
NO MAIL IN VOTING. must be in person.
You’re welcome. Simple logic must prevail.
I didn't think of that but you are right. Biden and Kamala have failed up to now to connect with the American people. Now they are going to get drowned out for the next few weeks.
Very good point. Biden has just said that he would appoint a Female African American, that gives him a weak hand. Trump will appoint a woman who has a stellar judicial record. The Democrats don't have plan to counter the upcoming fight.
Now the Reid Rule returns to bite the Dems in the ass for a generation or two.
Roberts will side with the 3 libs, and a 4-4 tie will let any lower court decision on mail-in ballots stand. This is not a good development for us.
Or Pelosi finally giving in on the new Covid-19 relief bill.
Yes, the court became more conservative
God has a sense of humor.
How could losing a very liberal judge not be a good development?
(If Roberts does side with the libs and Ruthie was still around, then it would be 5-4 for the libs, and we automatically lose. There's at least a chance that the appeals court would have decided in our favor.)
It would have been 5-4 if that’s the case in favor of the Democrats. The development is still good for us as it allows us the chance to make positive change on the courts before election chaos.
What makes you say an absurd thing like that? He is a totally compromised individual who will continue to be threatened by the leftists' revealing whatever it is they have on him. Trump will have to move quickly on this, and probably had his ducks in a row waving the flag long ago.
Roberts seems to have a very peculiar and political thought process.
He could easy jump in to help the 3 libs, and being an anti-Trumper, screw America again and again as is often his wont.
There is NO filibuster option THANK YOU Harry Reid we warned them at the time and NOW it will bite them in the butt!!!
Trump has done a lot with the appellate courts, but hasn't taken control of ALL of them. So the Rats will jurisdiction shop, win, en banc if necessary, at the appellate court level then blackmail Roberts to victory. Another Trump Supreme prevents that.
It will be hard enough to confirm a SCOTUS pick with our current numbers in normal times. Many of the Republican senators will NOT only take the time before the election for the nomination process. Just get Trump elected and all will be well as can be expected. There is now one fewer hard left vote.
Everyone forgetting Roberts here?
Your faith in him may be a little misplaced.
President Trump would do well to appoint a very conservative black female in the spirit of healing and unity
The election itself may end up in the SC.
However Trump would have to get a lot of people on board very fast to confirm a SC justice right now.
