titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted May 6, 2019 Remember the political satire movie "wag the dog"? Someone should make a political comedy that is basically weekend at Bernie's, but with a dead scotus justice. That could be hilarious if done well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RLLD 3,455 Posted May 6, 2019 I sorta hope its after Trump is gone, the TDS that would arise from him putting another justice on the SC would be intolerable.....if I wanted that experience i would visit a daycare center or something... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TBayXXXVII 2,117 Posted May 6, 2019 What's the rule/policy for SC's? I thought you had the spot until 1 of 3 things happened - 1) You resign 2) You die 3) Are no longer capable of serving. Am I wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sderk 1,040 Posted May 6, 2019 I think there are some left leaning doctors that will work with the government to keep her alive for as long as they like. Put her on a machine and pump air into her lungs and keep her soulless heart beating. She will live until the next democratic president. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lod001 1,237 Posted May 6, 2019 I think she dives into a coffin right after Trump is re-elected President. She's just a bag of bones at this point and would problem welcome the change of scenery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually you just have to hope she makes it through 2019, because Republicans are of the belief he can’t put a justice in place during an election year.

The Democrats hamstrung themselves when they floated this. I researched it. 13 justices have been appointed in election years. But Biden gave a speech against it 27 years ago, and while the situation he was speaking of didn’t occur, the GOP decided they needed to show that if history had been different, the Dems would have been hypocrites. Ok. Thanks for pointing me toward that lesson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,640 Posted May 7, 2019 You know, I understand that we're all partisan is all hell around here. But she really is a pretty amazing lady. The fact that she even went to law school at her time was pretty amazing. The fact that she carried double coursework because her husband was home sick with cancer is freaking amazing. can't you get set aside your partisanship long enough just to respect her for what she's done and accomplished? You don't have to agree with her decisions for Christ's sake. if I have kids, especially a daughter, but sons too, I would want them to watch that movie on the basis of sex. It was really well done. I mean, I didn't agree with Rambo playing kick the goat's head with the Taliban. But at least have the maturity to recognize it was a different time back then.

TBayXXXVII 2,117 Posted May 7, 2019 Just to make sure we're not skipping over an important detail on the so called "Biden rule". He said that because a Republican was in office. Let's not pretend that he would have brought it up had a Democrat been in office at the time. I mean, he didn't support that thought 3 years ago, did he? Let's also not forget that the American people didn't want a Democrat appointee, because with the knowledge of the vacancy, a Republican candidate won the election.

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted May 7, 2019 In the event that Ginsburg dies and Trump appoints a right wing justice to replace her, I would fully expect the next democrat president would just add a 10th and 11th liberal justice as long as the democrats hold the Senate.
