If the senate flips this move by Mitch will cost the GOP, but I do understand his urgency and the parties hypocrisy is to be expected.

when you accuse me of advocating white supremacy, you could
not be doing more to show your stupidity or desperation.

the hypocrisy is one sided? let’s examine the facts.

ginsburg was approved with 94 votes, meaning almost every republican votes for her.

then biden came
up with The Biden Rule, where he said no nominations should be made in an election year. did he stick to that in 2026? or did he flip flop for his party’s gain? now is he flip flopping again?

the democrats torpedoed Bork. they tried to lynch Thomas by appealing to the most base creeds of racists ( darkies can’t control
themselves around women). then they tried to crucify kavanaugh.

of course there’s gop hypocrisy here. but you reap what you sow. republicans won’t forgive senate democrats for what they did to kavanaugh, no should
they.

if this costs trump re election and costs the gop the senate, it’s worth it. because the most liberal congress ever will be limited by what they can do with a new court.

when you cry about republican hypictisy and mention nit a syllable if democrat tactics regarding scotus nominations, you reveal yourself very clearly.

liberals are threatening violence and arson and riots. to quote you, it’s to be expected by that bunch of sociopathic, anarchist babies.

the democrats torpedoed BorkBC of his role in the Sat. night massacre and his wanting to roll back civil rights. Even some Rep. voted against him while some Dems. voted for him.. they tried to lynch Thomas by appealing to the most base creeds of racists ( darkies can’t control
themselves around women)so Anita Hill wasn't credible?. then they tried to crucify kavanaugh.

of course there’s gop hypocrisy here. but you reap what you sow. republicans won’t forgive senate democrats for what they did to kavanaugh, no should
they.you mean look into credible evidence he lied? The Repub. limited the FBI in their investigation.

if this costs trump re election and costs the gop the senate, it’s worth it. because the most liberal congress ever will be limited by what they can do with a new court.

Biden didn't argue for a delay in an election year, as McConnell is doing. He said the nomination process should be put off until after the election.

This close they should put it off until after the election and they will have plenty of time to vote the justice in. However if the Repub. do confirm a justice and the Dems win the Pres and Sen. be prepared for a bunch of new justices and probably a need to put 2 more stars on ourflags.

"Biden didn't argue for a delay in an election year,"

Read this, and tell me he didn't say that. He said that the potus shouldn't nominate in an election year, and if the does, the senate should refuse to have a hearing. Biden said that. You just make sh*t up now?

not going to happen. What will eventually happen, is that as people flee liberal states, those states will lose congressional seats, and therefore, electoral votes.

and where will they go - to the warmer conserv. states and will turn them into blue states. Once Texas becomes blue (largely from Latinos) the Rep. party will be dead.

No. Again, you aren't thinking. The liberal whackos aren't feeing CT, why would they? Its conservatives who are fleeing.

You are 100% correct on TX flipping because of demographic shifts, and once that happens, it will be a gold mine for democrats. No way for a republican to win if TX flips. Republican presidential candidates will be dead.
