I pray for her family, during this time of loss.

I vehemently disagreed with her rulings, but I won't celebrate her death.

having said that, her passing is like 2020 decided to kick the world's largest hornet's nest...

 

[Tommy Gunz]

Shouldn’t the next president nominate a replacement?

that was the logic after Scalia died, right?

No Obama was LAME Duck
THAT's the difference.

How's that saying go? Ding dong...something...?

Oh, you're the one who still reads his nonsense.

My parents always said, "If you can't say something nice...... don't say anything."

Well.......... I never did listen to them, on that.

No. I can't do it. I cannot say what I want to say.

Rest, RBG.

That's as good as it gets, folks.

Not a chance. But since Trump will be re-elected, no big deal.

No reason they can't get this done - at least before 1/20/2021.

Trump already gave out his list of possible justices - move it ahead -

You can't go into the possibly most contested POTUS election in history with an even number of justices on the supreme court - imagine a tie in a critical vote that leaves the election undecided.

RIP Ruth.

Hoooooooooly shiz.

Hold on to your hats, folks.

More like-- hold onto your EBR's!

87 is a good run
So long
Next up?

 

[Rotn1]

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

Indeed..... didn’t like her politics but she was a tough old bird

No - it has nothing to do with lame duck -

The senate makes the call on how to proceed - they can take 100 years or 100 minutes to move ahead - totally their call.

Is it political?

YES BUT SO IS EVERYTHING IN DC.

 

[Dave514]

Seems pretty 2020

 

[HonkeyFries]

87 is more than most get and she has been miserable. We all would have been better off if she had passed much sooner.

I feel that is disrespectful to say but it is the truth.

 

[norton]

Wonder what she's going to say to all those innocent aborted humans she had a hand in condemning to death?

 

[xTerpx]

I will caveat this news and remind you guys to not to show outward excitement. This is a solemn moment in time when you don't want to trigger every little snot-nosed baggy-pants kid into the streets and motivate the losers this close to an election.

It'll work itself out (in the Senate beginning Monday morning). Glad the House took off to campaign.

 

[DonD]

Regardless of politics, she should have had the dignity to resign before the cancer took her out. I can't say that I'm sad.

Hope Trump can ram a new justice down the Dems throats even if he isn't reelected. Lordy do I pray he will be elected. Don

John was there to greet her.

Now Bidens campaign cry will be: 'Don't let Trump control the Supreme Court with another racist, homophobic, bigoted judge. Vote for Joe Biden, he will be sure to elect a judge that's fair and impartial and on the side of real justice...'

I hope Trump can get a replacement in there before the election so Biden can't use the issue of an open seat on the SCOTUS as a campaign sound bite, but I don't think Trump will be able to push it through so quickly.

Actually the difference was that the senate was red.

 

[Detectorist]

I'm sure this administration had a short list of candidates which have been notified.
