The Dems have promised to keep a new one off the bench unless he/she is a left leaner. Today Chunk Schumer was so excited on the floor of the Senate that I thought he may be ready to take his own life and the appointment hadn't been made, yet, then.c

Do any of you left leaners remember back a few years ago when the Dems agreed to give up the filibuster on judicial appointments? Oh yeah they did just that for fear that the GOP would try to use it to throw out any Obama appointees. Yep, now they don't even have that method left. I think they really believe they can hold things off for over two years when they may be able to beat Trump and get control of the Senate. It is sorrowful to see they trying to hold back the next appointment which Trump made this evening. Somehow, I just can't accept them believing they can hold the Court to 8 members very much longer.

Oh well, there will be a Constitutionalist appointed long before they can hold back, forever. Poor old Chunk may go clear out of his mind before he stops the acceptance.

Schumer wants to delay it. So they could manipulate the system, and perhaps even create violence.

The sight last night on front of the Supreme Court building was disgusting and dangerous. Those people protesting looked wild, dangerous, and were ready to commit crimes and violence in defense of protecting their rights to kill babies and rights for men to marry another man, or for woman to marry another woman and have all the benefits protected under the constitution.

The framers did not envision those events to happen. Liberal and democrat women looked so ugly and indecent.

Kevyn you may be right for a change. All Republican nominated SCOTUS judges.

This new appointee is a typical Republican judge, votes for employers versus employees, favors the government over the individual and has rigid uncharitable world view. What did you expect. He also repeats the Republican untruthful legal philosophy that judges interpret the law and don't make the law. This is meaningful to the low intelligence party members, but not true.

Well, if you'll recall, ole Mitch poisoned the well......................when he refused to give Obamas nominee ( Garland ) a vote..................and held the seat open for 17 months. That is now the precedent; no nominee will be approved during an election year, or the year before.

You're kidding, right? Try to remember the reasoning for McConnell refusing to hear Obama's choice for the court. How long was that vacancy?

Just remembered Kev "elections have consequences".
My second favorite Obama quote.
Also, with no message, and constantly allienating white males, what makes you think the left will even win in 2020?

That was during a Presidential Election, you can understand the difference right?
Worst part even by rigging their parties Primary election they still couldn't get Hillary in.
Maybe if Ruthy can hold on till 2020, the same case might be made.
Not to mention, you do realize your complaining about a SCOTUS that is supposed to interpert law, not make it up on the fly based on the emotion of the day.
Perhaps changing the laws you disagree with through Congress would be best.

Actually it was the Biden precedent and it applies to a lame duck presidential election year.

Do you understand the difference?

That said, I wish Mitch has noted Garland down.

Is there some information that you have I don't? Do you understand that the only way you increase the number on the Supreme Court bench is to amend the Constitution? Surely you understand that amendments always take over 2 years and the one you seem to know about hasn't even been proposed yet. How will the progs in Congress get this amendment, you talk about, through the Congress? Then the states have to accept this change and I don't think 3/4 of the state legislatures will come to what you speak of in less than 2 years.

Kevyn, of course you know something from your troll employers that the rest of us don't. Right? Where did you get this information?
