Shouldn’t the next president nominate a replacement?

that was the logic after Scalia died, right?

No, depends on which party controls the senate. If the dems controlled the senate they would push it out hoping for a dem POTUS next term.

This is a hell of an election twist.

I wonder if Mitch will change his tune from a few years ago.

I have nothing good to say about RBG. Nothing at all. No 'RIP', no 'Condolences to the family', etc...if a conservative Supreme Court Justice had died, you better believe the Libs would be posting 'Burn in hell' and dancing on their grave. I won't stoop that low, but I'm glad to see there's long-term hope for our country with the appointment of a conservative judge.

As long as Betty White is still alive. If she kicked the bucket it would be the end of the world.

"Elections have consequences." Barack Hussein Obama II

Trump will appoint and the Senate hearing will begin immediately to confirm.

Think of the hundreds of thousands of aborted babies since she's been a judge. That's the tip of the iceberg of the evil she has participated in

I find this kind of sad:

Just days before her death, as her strength waned, Ginsburg dictated this statement to her granddaughter Clara Spera: "My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed."​

She apparently knew that her days were very numbered, and she worried about politics and career. If I were in that situation, I hope that my time would be spent with friends and family and not a thought wasted on politics.

Did someone drop a house on her?

You are correct, the left are animals. No need for conservatives to descend to those depths.

She had my respect. A heck of a fighter. R.I.P.

RIP.

No you are totally wrong -

What does the constitution say?

It says the senate decides how to proceed - and that is exactly what they did after Scalia died - and it should be what happens now -

The senate has almost unlimited power to make the call - and they should use it.


But on top of that - imagine an election where Biden already has 600 lawyers hired - and the dumocrats have said they are going to fight with every thing they have until all legal means have been exhausted -

Do you want a SCOTUS with only 8 members so it could end in some sort of tie?
