Well recently The Liberal Supreme Court Icon shuffled off her mortal coil. Before she passed, she had left a message that her spot should be left vacant and filled by the next President after the election. Funny that back in 2016 she had stated that there is no constitutional reason why a President cannot complete his duties and fill a vacant Supreme Court spot. President Obama nominated Judge Merrick who nomination was stalled in a Republican senate who thanks to a 2013 ruling by the outgoing Senate majority leader Harry Reed(D) who removed the Filibuster rule and set a simple majority rule so they can run President Obama's judges through quickly during a lame duck session before the Republicans took over after winning the senate after the 2014 elections. Senate Minority leader Cocaine Mitch(R) warned Harry Reed that the democrats will rue that decision and he has made them eat that poorly thought out legislative schanigan.
The Liberal democrats have of course lost their mind, they have immediately started making threats about "burning Cities" and other mayhem, it is like the idea of civility is beyond them. And the Republicans after seeing the Kavanaugh hearings know not to trust the democrats for anything, the kid gloves have been removed. President Trump has said that he will appoint a Female to the Job, but no matter who he appoints the democrats will pull out all the stops to try to trash the nominee because they don't want President Trump to appoint another Supreme court Justice.
I hate to say this but I actually blame Judge Ginsburg for this, she should have retired years ago when President Obama was President and the democrats had the Senate so her successor would have been of the same ideological persuasion. But the Senate was lost in 2014 to the GOP and they believed the polls that were saying that Felonia Von Pantsuit was going to win the Presidency and they believed that they would recapture the senate but there was a massive upset and Donald Trump became President and the GOP held onto the Senate, and the Democrats threw a massive temper tantrum because it wasn't suppose to be this way, it was "Her Turn". So the democrats immediately started to find way to force President Trump out of office from trying to delegitimize him with disloyal electors, to harassing his supporters to starting the "Russia, Russia, Russia" lies to Impeachment.
Well his supporters have been harassed since 2015 and it has gotten worse. The Riots have been sanctioned by the blue cities that they originate from. Judge Ginsburg Tried to hold on despite her cancer to 2021 where the Democrats were hopeful the team of Biden/Harris would be successful in sweeping the "Hated Cheeto Man" out of Office.
Can't say I disagree with or like any of them... sigh. People don't seem to realize that EVERYBODY will lose if this gets stupid!
ReplyDeleteHey Old NFO;
DeleteI know, and I hope nobody gets stupid.
It's too late; they already got stupid.
ReplyDeleteThe Enemies Domestic declared war on the Deplorables almost four years ago and have been waging a steadily heating cold war since. The Deplorables are holding, hoping they'll come to their senses and back off. They won't. They're mad with powerlust and incapable of reason.
Now they're renewing their war cries in an attempt to intimidate the president and the Senate. When Ginsburg's replacement is ratified in the next week or two they're going to escalate the violence. When Trump is reelected in November they will lose what little restraint they have left and unleash the dogs of war, forcing good people to do very bad things.
Harden your heart and gird your loins. Now.
Hey Steve;
DeleteI tend to agree, I hope you are wrong but I fear that you may be right, the left think that violence is a knob that can be turned higher or lower in furtherance of their goals, but to us, it is a switch. Once we flick that switch, it is on at that point. What is stopping it is that people like "Lawdog" is asking everyone to stay frosty until after the election because any retaliation benefits their cause not ours because the craven media will immediately play up the "Vast right wing conspiracy" and provide cover for (Burn,Loot and Murder). Right now the optics are killing them with the stupidity they are doing with the average Americans and they vote.
