Trump should nominate Amy Coney Barret. That will at least drop the odds of having someone come out who was raped 38 years ago...

wait a minute...only about a month and a half before the POTUS election...

remember what Mitch McConnell said in 2016, when Obama nominated Garland to a vacant seat....there was more than 9 months before election day, but McConnell said it was too close to the election, so there would be no Senate consideration of the nominee until after the American people weighed in and voted for the POTUS???

every con, including all the GOP Senators lined up and supported that view...some of them are up for re-election in November

was that just BS?

why not wait until after the result of the election...if Trump wins, he can nominate away the day after the result is settled and have the confirmation before his inauguration

You should sent your complaint to Chucky Schumer.

Republicans are trying to distinguish the Garland nomination by Obama without a Senate consideration. The argument that things are different here because Trump and the Senate are from the same party, whereas Obama and the Senate were from different parties. A difference without distinction in my mind.

I wish McConnell and the Republicans would just tell the truth: That they will fill RBG's vacancy because they are simply in control right now and have the power to do so.

Personally, I feel Garland should have at least received a Senate hearing and vote (even though we know what the result would be). Similarly, I hate to admit it, but Trump should get the pick right now while in office, not after we decide who wins the Election.

Robert, do you believe the dems would do any different? Do you believe they'd tell the truth and say they did it simply because they were in control? Rhetorical questions... I don't believe it and I don't think you do either.

Delta - In 2016, Ruth Bader Ginsburg was asked by the NY Times if she felt the Senate had an obligation to consider Obama nominee Merrick Garland to replace Antonin Scalia. You know what she said??

"That's their job. There is nothing in the Constitution that says a President stops being President in his last year."

So... there you have it.

Oh, and in 2016 Chuck Schumer tweeted that the senate had confirmed a number of SCOTUS nominees in election years and that they should just, "do their job".

No. No. And, I agree with you that I do not believe it.

RBG was right when she said what she did about the vacancy Obama wanted to fill. So, consistent with that I believe this is Trump's right to nominate someone and get them sworn in before the new Senate is sworn in, even even if before the Election.

I hope he picks that Hispanic woman from the Florida Supreme Court so we can watch the Democrats have to openly hate women and Hispanics.

I’ve already tired of all the RPG talk and they haven’t even taken her on tour and buried her yet.
