Re: McConnell- trump's nominee will receive a vote on the floor of the senate
...


And as usual...OMMISSION is prominent to the argument - in attempting to show McConnell as hypocritical.

WHAT is left out of the narrative: "eight months before" the 2016 election, the Presidency and Senate were held by differing parties. When you really look at that, you'll understand, that (the Senate had every right to hold up the vote, as they have the constitutional duty to vote or not vote, as the decision is theirs...and therefore if the pres is of differing party/beliefs, it's their role to not hold the vote ).

In the present case: the presidency and the senate are of the same party...so it's completely w/in their rights - indeed their duties - to nominate and confirm a new Jus. of the SC, immediately.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79206091


Nice try to spin. But it's all political as usual. Both sides do the same shit.
 Quoting: NDFarm


Yeah agreed, it was a nice try of mine...as IT IS CONSTITUTIONAL. The Senate is given THIS right (to do so or not). So of course, they will use this power for their purposes. There was no hypocrisy by the Repb's.

I'm sorry you don't like (the way) the written powers of the US Constitution are delineated.

You may be amazed at (just how remarkable those powers really are); and how they really do protect all of us.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79206091


With at least 2 GOP Senaters and probably 3 not supporting any vote on a SC justice before the election it's looking unlikely trump could pull it off before November 3rd but with trump you never know.
 Quoting: NDFarm


That's likely a valid point.

It's also one that (hopefully) they've given thought to. I do think, that perhaps, one of the reasons that McConnell apparently said tonight that, (we'll have "a vote"), rather than "we'll confirm" - which is what he'd said in February - may be due to that very reason.

If that is the case, it may also be true then, that (by at least having the vote - even if the nominee doesn't make it - is that it will force the cards onto the table: those that support the pres and those that don't.)

I think the senator from AK is up for re-elect in a yr or two. I think people will remember.

Interesting time.

ON A SEEMINGLY (UNRELATED) POINT HERE, RELATIVE TO THIS THREAD: I'M VERY CONCERENED FOR THE MARKETS NEXT WEEK. SO TO REMEMBER, WE CURRENTLY ONLY HAVE AN EVEN NUMBER OF SCOTUS' JUSTICES. I THINK THE RISK JUST WENT WAY UP...THAT WE MAY NOT HAVE A NINTH ANYTIME SOON. AND FURTHER, GIVEN AS REPORTED, THE DEMS HAVE HUNDREDS OR THOUSANDS OF ATTORNEYS PRE-POSITIONED IN SWING STATES, TO DRAG THIS OUT AS LONG A POSSIBLE, WE MAY NOT EVEN HAVE A SUPREME COURT THAT COULD DECIDE (PER 4/4 SPLIT), SHOULD THE WORST HAPPEN. I DON'T THINK THE MARKETS WILL LIKE THIS; AT ALL. WE MAY BEGIN TO SEE THE FRUIT OF THESE REALITIES (LIKE I SAID, PERHAPS EVEN NEXT WEEK; AS TODAY, IS A VERY IMPORTANT DAY, FOR MULTIPLE REASONS.)

ALL THE BEST.

President Trump needs to pick someone that commie 'Hoe' Harris is not going to slander with made up garbage.
My choice would be Condoleezza Rice..safe!
 Quoting: TruthBWU


She would be good for the nomination because the Democrats would look awful attacking her. But, they will do it. The only problem is Condoleezza Rice is a RINO. She is a never Trumper. So, I don't think she would allow herself to be USD in such a way.

Anyways, the Senate has a stimulus bill still sitting on their plates. IF they want to circumvent the nomination process by stalling. Then they will not only endanger their legislative authority but they will also enable executive authority by default.

It wasn't a precedent. It was simply that Obama knew his appointee wouldn't be confirmed. Thus he didn't even try. Do you really think Obama held back because of some moral or ethical principle?

Trumps nominee at least has a chance to be confirmed.
