Hillary Clinton on Friday urged Senate Democrats to do everything possible to block President Trump's next Supreme Court nominee, demanding that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell be prevented from filling the seat left vacant by Justice Ruth Ginsburg after her death late Friday.
Speaking to Rachel Maddow, Clinton said Democrats "will have to use every single possible maneuver that is available to them" to head off Trump's nominee. She called on Democrats to "make it clear they are not going to permit Mitch McConnell to enact the greatest travesty, the monumental hypocrisy that would arise from him attempting to fill this position."
Ginsburg, Clinton said, was a monumental figure "not just for women but for every American, and I don’t want to see that legacy ripped up by political hypocrisy coming from Mitch McConnell."
Clinton in accusing McConnell of hypocrisy was referring to his refusal in 2016 to consider any nominee from Barack Obama meant to fill the vacancy left by deceased Justice Antonin Scalia. McConnell at the time said that the American electorate should be permitted to choose the next president and by extension the next justice.
Following Ginsburg's death on Friday, McConnell said that Trump's eventual nominee "will receive a vote on the floor of the United States Senate."

Lie. Cheat. Steal. Murder. The usual, eh, Hillary?
They’ll find someone to say she was a ‘solicitor’ walking the streets at night.
The most important case not discussed is "Biden v. Trump" in the aftermath of an effed-up election with Hillary cheerleading the pushback of any Trump victory.
Someone should remind Hillary that she lost. She’s in no position to demand anything.
And the GOP Senate must use every tool to Ram thru Trumps
SC nominee.
If you took the adjectives away, she’d be speechless! Oh for that power!
The Marxists are watching their attempt at a take over of the Republic spin out of control by this untimely but not unexpected passing
PIAPS has less influence every single day. Will she ever realize that?
Ginsburg, Clinton said, was a monumental figure “not just for women but for every American..”
Yes, because we ALL know that the only issue for “women” is the legal power to murder their own babies if they feel like it - and the only human beings who qualify as “women,” to leftists, are leftist women (including leftist males who want to pretend they’re leftist women). REAL women - you know, decent human beings who wouldn’t dream of murdering their own off-spring, are simply non-entities who count for less than nothing in Hillary-world.
Well... it’s been a nice weekend, so far. Ding dong, the witch is dead. One of these days, that repellent, power hungry bitch Hillary will follow her and we can ALL celebrate.
Yup. EVERY maneuver no matter how illegal or devious.
2016 was different because Obama was a lame duck.
Trump is not in 2020.
There is absolutely NOTHING they can do, legally, to stop this.
They can only riot in an attempt to intimidate. And that is certain to backfire.
Still hasn’t given up being president...
Hillary, will you ever respect the 2016 election results,
and stand down?
You know, like you demanded Trump to do.
Funny how they flip-flop like fish out of water...
Anything goes eh Hillary?
Well, Hillary, the fact is the people rejected you for POTUS, therefore your advice means nothing. You are simply a rage filled private citizen, not unlke the street thugs that have been burning American cities. The only difference between you and WE THE PEOPLE, Is that our opinion elected the man we want to make this decision.
Allthey had to do is win some elections in 2018. they did not.
