    OMG, McConnell is nothing more than a raging, hypocritical, partisan ******bag.

    If you want to wait until mid-November for a vote, I'm okay with that.

    Trump's support from "never Trump Republicans" will soar.

    wah wah wah. McConnell noted that there has been a century since the party that held the Senate confirmed a pick of the OPPOSING PARTY's president. Not when the same party holds the senate and the oval office

    I don't think Democrats are worried about a next time. They assume, perhaps correctly, there won't be one.

    Sorry to see her go. But will of her serious ailments she had throughout the years, I wonder if she would have lived this long on universal government health care.

    Ginsburg was a typical New York anti white, anti Christian, anti American type who had her reasons for feeling the way she did. Pelosi is truly just a power seeking witch.

    I'll be a bit less than impressed if McConnell can't pull this off.

    But then again, we are talking about DC.

    The Rs had two years in full control and managed only to pass one major piece of legislation.

    An act that has contributed apparently to increasing deficits every year under Ryan.

    Good luck to your team, there's a decent chance they'll not get it done.

    But if they do, caveat emptor bro, how are Gorsuch and Kavanaugh working out for you so far?

    It's astonishing how many of you disrespect Justice Scolia so much. I'm shocked, honestly. How can you display such incredible disgust for the man's judgement?

    Seriously, stop. If you respect Mr. Scalia, stop disrespecting her. Otherwise, you are disrespecting him as much as you disrespect Jesus these days.

    Clarity from McConnell.
    Expect a nominee early next week.

    In all honesty, they should wait otherwise it'll cement in many minds that they are nothing more then hypocrites and lastly, they claim they will win the election anyway, so what's the rush?? Why not wait until the results of the election are determined and Trump is re-elected as many here claim??

    The nomination hearing is going to be an absolute spectacle. After what they tried to do to Kavanaugh the libs may say that Pizza Gate was real and the nominee orchestrated it!

    Ha. Chivalry is dead and the libs killed it with the collusion hoax, Kavanaugh, impeachment, covid, and the protests. You don't fight a legion of bloodthirsty Communists with chivalry, you do it with the same ruthlessness they do. Dream on.

    Republicans are hypocrites if they rush thru a replacement prior to the election.

    Trump would actually save American lives by making his nomination Monday. The left are trying to suppress rioting until after the election. After the election, the left have no reason to not riot and it will be a mess trying to nominate a justice.

    I think this will force Biden to say who he'd pick-and he's stuck with a black female. and guess what-he doesn't have any black females that have the credentials of the people Trump can choose from. He's stuck with promising a black female. And Lets look at Anne C Barrett. Supreme court clerk and a valedictorian at a very good law school -does Biden have a black female with that credential? Yes he does-maybe better. Does he have one that is a Circuit Appellate judge? No.

    The two I keep hearing are these:
    : Justice Leondra Kruger of the California Supreme Court, and Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson of the federal district court in Washington, D.C. A state supreme court judge is seen as inferior to a Federal court of appeals as is a federal district court judge. Kruger has some serious academic credentials-Harvard, Yale Law and a law clerk for Stevens on the Supreme court. she probably is the top person who meets Biden's quota requirements. Her father is Jewish, her mother Jamaican. She is seen as a moderate. Ketanji Brown Jackson: an Honors graduate of HLS-she clerked for Breyer on the US Supreme Court. District judges are rarely considered for the USSC but her academic record is pretty strong.

    Hilarious. Not much of a bastion is one man can bring it all down in 3+ years.. That bastion is only fortified if a DEMOCRAT sits on the throne, then everyone on the planet loves us again :roll:
