Agree totally!
Indeed, Post Haste to this detail. EASILY this election can again fall into the hands of the Supreme Court..and the way it stands now it could be 4 against 4....
Have the Senate vote on it Monday at 9 AM.
You make great common sense. Thank you!
Agree... Britt Grant from, I believe, his first list of potential future Supreme Court nominees.
This is a disaster for the Democrats. It is going to suck up all of the media’s energy for weeks - right when they need all hands on deck to attack Trump. Whether a confirmation happens or not, it’s a change of subject they cannot afford right now.
If a replacement is confirmed in a matter of weeks, the Supreme Court will be greatly diminished as an issue on Election Day.
Dems didn’t plan her death very well.
With Ginsburg’s seat vacant, that leaves:
- 4 “known conservative” votes
- 1 “swing vote” (Roberts)
- 3 leftist votes.
Roberts is likely to lean towards the Constitutional position, along with the other conservatives.
Now an 8-member Supreme Court has actually become MORE conservative than it was yesterday.
(I don’t remember where I stole the above but ... stole it I did!) 8-)
I'm sure Trump's prepared.
What can be done?
Agreed, White Lives Matter.
An 8-member Court will not well handle the myriad election issues that will be in their purview.

This is not workable - this Justice would probably have to recuse.
And besides that, in the practical sense, her seat being left vacant is the same as their being 1 more conservative Justice.
The Circuit Court seats are now filled - any District Court seats than still be filled should be the focus for the remainder of the time.
Exactly what we were discussing around the campfire before this article came out. Nomination needed by Monday!
Look at how long the dems delayed the Kavanaugh confirmation. This is going to be a long drawn out zoo.
Mittens and Murkowski will not vote to confirm. I imagine one or two others won’t either. Collins from Maine quickly comes to mind. We have too many RINO traitors in our midst.
The Crazies are already Threatening Violence if Trump tries to replace her ,D’oh
Why? You know it’s not going to be approved for months anyway. Dems will drag nominee thru the mud with endless hearings about how bad and evil the judge is.
If the House and Senate disagree on the time of adjournment, the Constitution says that the president may, “adjourn them to such Time as he shall think proper.”
