Mitch McConnell should have kept his pie hole shut

A republican congress will never again vote for a liberal supreme court justice.

Is he not a partisan hack?

Time to expand the court and ram thru liberal judges. It’s time for the dems to play hardball

Here is little Math for you since David Souter libs only 31 democrats voted for republican appointed justices.

Clarence Thomas 0
John Roberts 24
Samuel Alito 4
Neil Gorsuch 3
Brett Kavanaugh 0
Amy Coney Barrett 0

Meanwhile Ruth Bader Ginsburg alone had 42 republican senators cross the isle
That’s not counting Stephen Breyer 33
Sonia Sotomayor 9
Elena Kagan 4

Those are numbers. Libs have stopped reaching across the isle long before repugs did.

Now I understand libs think they’re special…that society owes them for being libs.

A prediction: if Biden wins in 2024 and McConnell runs the Senate from 2024-2028, he won’t allow Biden make any Supreme Court appointments. Because he demonstrated that he can.

Do it…I triple dog dare you.

Or Appoint any judges at all.

None of that actually matters. It’s a binary situation: either Presidents are allowed to appoint Supreme Court Justices, or they are not.

Counter-prediction. The '22 GOP nullifies any state and Federal elections that don’t result in True American outcomes, so Mitch, or his replacement, rushes through one or two authoritarian ultranationalists between 2025 and 2029…

It matters…with consent of senate.

Don’t BS me…for 3 decades libs did everything they can to prevent repubs from filling a seat except for Roberts. And we know why.

You’re blaming liberals for McConnell’s radical break with precedent.

Will you being holding Haiti accountable for the French imperial policy next?

Who’s trying to “BS” you? The “libs” quite literally didn’t do everything they could; that is, when they’ve controlled the Senate, they have allowed Republican presidents to appoint Supreme Court justices. If they were going to do “everything,” they could have simply pulled McConnell’s move with Garland. McConnell introduced this new innovation.

McConnell simply stated the obvious. In 2024 if there is a repeat of 2016 in regards to circumstances, he will once again do what he did in 2016. Was there ever any doubt that he would? Is this really an earth shattering revelation?

If Republicans gain the majority back, they can block the nominee.

Could be helpful in the next campaign season.

Seems our Democrat Trillion spending inflation deniers are a bit concerned after all.

The border and energy are the policies that matter.
