If There is a Vacancy on the Supreme Court in 2020 Should the Senate Vote on Nominations?

I don’t see any advantage to waiting.

 

I say since they hold the senate they should decide at the time, and ignore the fallout. Follow the Harry Reid rules.

 

The democrats literally called Susan Collins a “rape apologist”after their attempted detailing of Kavanaugh. Their cries of hypocrisy for running the senate like they did should go completely ignored

 

The phrase, “All’s fair in love and war.” comes to mind. Where the democrat’s ideas of fair game are concerned I’d say, yes, absolutely, get tough and and pull out all the stops whenever possible. Hearing them squeal, "hypocrisy" really doesn't carry much weight concerning fairness considering the source...

 

Lol. I don’t see how this statement can ever be thrown back in your face. No sirreee.

 

Better than "all's fair in love and war"...

"An eye for an eye, tooth for tooth..."

So yes. Do it!

 

They're in the majority. "Elections have consequences".

 

Your point is well-taken. Politicians tend to say what sounds good at the time, and as ambiguously and noncommittal as possible. They will come up with another slant, if the opportunity presents itself.

“Obviously” the will of the people would be for Trump to nominate, since he would only be in his 4th year, not his 8th.

But perhaps Ginsburg will feel compelled to drop out this year! Time to take that long promised trip to kiwi land while there’s still time.

 

Well, maybe it's time to take the gloves off dealing with this party after the way they've treated Bork, Thomas and now Kavanaugh, among others. I think, say, if Hillary would have won and they had the Senate, they'd ram their latest moonbat appointee through in ANY year and wouldn't bat an eye.

 

Refresh my memory, but did the left really even put up a fight to fill Scalia's seat? It seemed as if they were so sure if a Hillary victory that they didn't care, at the time.

 

Justice Ginsburg remains in the the hospital.

Not a good sign.

 

Not sure how that will turn out. Evidently, her fall revealed some pre-cancerous nodules in her lungs, so they operated. That fall may have been fortuitous for her.

What astounds me is that she may still be sitting in judgment without being present. Not sure that should be allowed. Is there precedent for less than full participation?

 

Hmm, don't know.

 

Ruth Bader Ginsburg Asks Someone to Wake Her When Scalia Stops Talking

 

Left wing jurists make their own rules. Just like they make their own laws.

 

Perhaps its time for this amazing person to do what I have been reluctant to do... Retire

 

But she's just praying, right?

Thanks. I had forgotten about that. The photo is actually of her snoozing at Obama's State of the Union, and she blamed it on the booze. (I rest my case.)

But it is not out of character. This article has her sleeping on the bench. Snorer in the court? Ruth Bader Ginsburg snoozes - WND - WND

 

Is she still even alive? Let's see, she has broken ribs, she's 85 years old and she has lung cancer . . . doubt she's ever coming back.
