    Not for Obama, but OK for Trump. McConnell says he'd confirm ...
    May 29, 2019 — Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., stated Tuesday that if a Supreme Court vacancy emerged next year, he would fill it.

    Was this constitutionally sound?

    It doesn't change the fact Lincoln was racist just like other famous leaders of the time. None of that really changed until a hundred years later under LBJ.

    Here we are 57 years later and the Democrats are still institutionalizing racism. WTF?

    OTOH, you and I can readily agree that the Republicans, especially the Trumpians, are racist assholes.

    Most however just don't care. They're too busy getting their piece of the American pie to give a fuck about what others are getting. It's like seeing a commercial about starving kids in Africa. Sad, but just because they don't care doesn't make them racists.

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you are trying to say.

    It's a fact that 100% of us had mothers. All mothers are female. All mothers are responsible for their children. Therefore, all females are responsible for everyone.

    See how that works. Now your turn with "white male racists".

    No. It was Liberal. It only looks like English superficially.
