In fact, I'll bet Clarence will be watching the nominee hearings and the ongoing riots in major cities with eyes wide open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicagoresident Posted June 27, 2018 at 07:18 PM Share Posted June 27, 2018 at 07:18 PM I'm sure the right will feed some token nominations through the woodchipper, the left will figure out how to obstruct, and we'll end up with another swing justice. The left will "Weekend at Bernies" RBG until they have a more favorable political climate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ragsbo Posted June 27, 2018 at 07:37 PM Share Posted June 27, 2018 at 07:37 PM Another reason the republicans must win and win big in the midterm elections. The more senators they have the less the left can obstruct and pull their crap. I think he will also get a third choice since Gingsbird won't last long.

POTUS still has to originally appoint them, for them to approve EVEN if they manage to win a majority (and that is ANYTHING but certain). Frankly, F them.

Frankly, F them.Exactly, they want a split court for 2+ years, this is very different than a presidential election year. They want to hold out hope of being able to block his nomination for the duration of his first term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonOglesby - Now in Texas Posted June 27, 2018 at 08:07 PM Share Posted June 27, 2018 at 08:07 PM Watching twitter with the #SCOTUS tag is hilarious. Almost too fast to catch. You have to stop it from scrolling.... The D's are going completely insane. I mean some of the crazy stuff... #SCOTUS IF you don’t vote this november against this anti woman, anti immigrant, anti black Constitution America, it is your fault. It just is. What happens if Paul Ryan's girl gets raped by a man who turns out to be his long-lost son from a college keg party who just converted to Islam while aiding Canadians smuggling shoes across the border? Asking for a friend. #RoeVWade #SCOTUS Not really excited about the idea of moving to Canada, because: cold. But if our friends to the north would consider invading us, I, for one, would surrender immediately. #SCOTUS And these are clean ones... the complete breakdown is crazy. I mean literally acting that the day the court convenes Roe v Wade will overturned by some type of decree. Or screeching that the court will start removing black people from their homes... I am pretty libertarian, but watching folks on the left have their heads explode at every turn makes me not want to even consider their opinions and thoughts.
