To be fair, I want the republicans to lie in the bed they made and accept that the arguments they made saying we shouldn't elect a supreme court justice under Obama so close to an election also applies to Trump.
Looking at all of that, I think we owe 2020 an apology. Looks like it won't be a bad year after all.
"Policy". More like the legislature taking advantage of them being a check and balance against the other two branches by not confirming a nominee. It's entirely within their power and rights and I'm wholeheartedly behind nothing getting done.
On one hand, I like the policy. On the other, McConnel himself has said he pulled it out of his ass. Soooooooo....
The McConnell Rule is that if the President and Senate are from DIFFERENT parties, the Senate shouldn't proceed. It's still a ridiculous, made up rule, but fuck it. Ram the nomination through.
Hopefully Justice Ginsburg's family are well and hopefully her final moments were not completely awful. She seemed like a nice lady and had a wealth of knowledge and experience, which is not only worth respecting but worth encouraging our sisters and daughters to emulate.
Barrett is a cuck. She adopted a bunch of black kids to prove she's virtuous.
