Yeah, it's just a shame that she is going to have to last till 2025 unless the dems start drastically changing

Oh look.. concerned conservatives are still hoping for an old lady's death because her speech triggers them.

I thought 2025 was when Ivanka I is supposed to begin her reign?

Ginsburg said at in a CNN interview yesterday that she's cancer free.

Relatedly she's likely buried a lot of people who were convinced they'd outlive her and would get to seat a conservative justice in her place. I'd suggest...not doing that.

Dem's have a pretty solid platform that is very popular with the people. If you mean they should ramp up the racist rhetoric to massage some oversized amygdala's, then we can agree to disagree.

Surely it wouldn't matter, McConnell has made his opinion clear that in the final year of a President's term he should not appoint a SC Justice, that instead we should wait until the election and let the electors choose!

why are democrats supposed to be more like ignorant, traitorous conservatives to "have a chance"? That is exactly the shit we don't need in this country. Thankfully, democrats are the vast majority in this country. They just need to actually get out and vote.

Is that what you mean by change--actually get out and vote? I agree, because that's all that matters. This country is far, far more liberal than it is conservative. It just takes the majority to get out and vote, and there would be so few republicans left in this country. It would finally put as back in the First World again.

You guys really need to rid yourselves of any notions you might have that anything that particular poster says is in good faith.

"you're going down before me, Trump!"
I think those are 5 pounders.

Well, yeh, but things change, right? I just hope McConnell doesn't get the chance to show us what a treacherous old bastard he really is. Liberal tears are what he lives for.

I'd be down with that. After screwing Obama out of an appointment the dems are owed one.

Go girl... hang in there!

Thing is we all know that if Ginsburg passed in August that McConnell would rush to confirm a replacement. Hell, if she died after the election and Trump is defeated he'd rush to replace her. I think we all know it's a pipe dream to expect McConnell to show even a modicum of dignity or decency or consistency.

 

[s0me0nesmind1]

So - In all honesty, I wonder in the history of SCOTUS appointments how many there have been that occurred where the presidential party (appointee) didn't have the senate majority.

I'm OK with that.

If RBG died the night before inauguration McConnell would hold session that night to seat a new justice before a Democrat was sworn in the next day. And conservatives would cheer him on.

Spoiler alert: you will never be happy with Democrats. Never.

No worries, McConnell will want to wait until November, in the event she needs to be replaced, to let the American people decide, amirite?

Eh she’s been in and out of hospitals for years and beaten way worse than a bile shunt infection.

At her age, every battle can potentially be her last.
