If a one-term Trump nominates three justices who are confirmed by the Senate, talk about holy minoritarianism, Batman.

Too late to yell at her now, but RBG not retiring under Obama is really one of the most incredibly selfish decisions of all time.

RBG died so Amy Coney Barrett Could live

It's certainly a head-scratcher.

If you hear him talk on even a semiregular basis, this tweet makes sense because it matches right up with his speech pattern.

This was supposed to be a Clinton victory lap: first female pres gets to nominate replacement for first female justice (no one counts SDO) who was coincidentally placed on the court by her hubs. She couldn't quit after Trump got elected. Scalia would have kind of ruined the party as well.

Its widely assumed it'll be Barrett. I found these answers she provided from her '17 nomination to the circuit court. https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Barrett%20Responses%20to%20Whitehouse%20QFRs.pdf

He said that when he at least acted like he had principles. He should just say "I'm a different man now," no one could argue with that.

It wasn't a foregone conclusion that Hilary would win the election until Trump won the nomination though.

RBG bet on herself over McConnell like LHC Bill Snyder did over John Currie.

He said it on multiple occasions, too.

The good news is, if you’re gathering in large shoulder to shoulder groups to honor RGB. You are protected from the virus.

Thoughts on the indoor Trump rallies? Haven’t heard a peep out of you about them.
