    Default 6 Repub Senators could vote PRESENT or Not Vote, & she will still get confirmed ...

    ... with a VP tie breaker.

    She will be confirmed before Jan. 20th, probably before Nov. 30, no matter who wins the election.

    Pelois claims she has arrows in her quiver. Did she steal them from Pocohantas or is it just plain demeaning cultural appropriation?

    And, we should not give the Dems any quarter either. After their behavior with our prior picks......we need to go full speed ahead!
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    I watched Mcconnell speaking today, and he clarified he said a divided gov't, and then cited a ton of historical facts that proved his actions were the norm, not unprecedented. And he said his move came from the Biden Schumer playbook they used on 43.

    Go for it. I dare you. After what happened with Kavanaugh and the Democrats taking back the House, they'll be even more fired up for RBG.

    Shove that SCOTUS pick through and Biden just comes back in January and expands the court, gives DC and PR statehood, abolishes the electoral college, and ends gerrymandering.

    And you know what? Maybe he does all that anyway.

    But RBG passing is probably the worst thing for Republicans because it puts SCOTUS front and center, which is a winning issue for Democrats, not Republicans (see: 2018).

    And despite your arrogance and poor instincts, doing so will hand Democrats total control over DC.

    Maybe that's what you want.

    And if you're wrong? You'll delete this account, start a new one and pretend you've never heard of Trump before.

    It's 3 not 6, moron.

    53 Rs 47 Ds/Is

    Taking 3 from the Repukes leaves them with 50.

    Add those 3 to the D/I's 47 and you've got a tie which Mike Pants could break.

    Let 4 R's defect and it doesn't happen.

    It isn’t what he is saying dumbass. They don’t have to vote yes or no. They can abstain.

    Technically they need 48 votes

    You need to take a civics class dumbass

    McConnell was wrong, like the guy has a record for being honest, regardless of the examples he cited, never has a nomination been approved this close to an election in such rapid time, there was a reason he wouldn't answer questions afterwards

    Simple fact, the guy argued and did one thing when it served his ends, and he is now doing the exact opposite cause it serves his ends, that is called hypocrisy, and dishonesty, but as we've seen in the last four years, those qualities don't mean anything to the right

    Bullshit.

    Besides, if they are opposed to allowing the nomination to go forward, why would they do something that would allow it?

    Take a fucking common sense class, dumbass.
