It's a flawed document but I like it a lot. I hate to see anyone walk all over it or ignore it. Both of which Trump and the GOP have done.Got a problem with the US Constitution? Thanks for playing, now give your mommy her 'puter back.
1. Filling a vacant seat is not "stacking the courts".Republicans should learn, they do not get to stack the courts...Democrats MUST LEARN they do not own this SCOTUS seat. It's not their property.
First they deny Obama for the scotus seat to replace Scalia, then they say they need to deny Hillary a pick, even of she won the presidency....
Do you think only Republicans should be allowed to pick SC Justices???
2. Hillary's pick? She lost, not a thing.
3. Scalia's seat was vacant in an election year where the president and senate are from different parties. Delaying the vote until after the election was a legitimate move. Way more legal than the democrats' subversion of the Trump presidency.
In the 2016 Presidential Election, one of the primary reasons that Trump voters voted for Trump over Hillary was to DENY Hillary the chance to nominate any Supreme Court justices. Trump won the election. It would be a betrayal of HIS voters confidence for him to do anything less than what he was elected to do.
Dems who actually attempted to fill a conservative seat with a liberal, now complain about Republicans doing the exact same thing they attempted.
The people said no to Trump by 3 million votes.
No, California said no to Trump by 4 million votes. The other 49 states said yes to Trump by 1 million votes. There I destroyed your pitiful talking point, tissue?

Uh, not really. California is still the United States. The fact is, those 3 million votes were across the whole country, and Hillary won the more populous states by huge margins while Trump barely scraped by in FL, NC, PA, WI and MI. That's kind of messed up... The people got this one right, our bad system, not so much.
No dummy it was 4 million votes and they were all in California. Trump crushed Hillary by 1 million votes in the other 49 states.

No, it was 3 million votes in AMERICA.. The people said "No".
They'll say it louder in november, but we shouldn't let Trump pack the courts.
Actually we do know how the democrats would do. They would do exactly what the Republicans are doing. This is the effect of that politically motivated democrat impeachmentI applaud you coming out of the closet but you're not my type. We don't know what the Dems would do but they've always said they wouldn't. On the other hand we know exactly what the GOP says it will do. I don't see those as equivalent.blow me the seat is vacant and must be filled if democrats had the same chance they would fill it by end of this weekNeither does the GOP. Why not let the people decide as Mitch and Biden have said? I didn't realize how scared of losing the Right has become, that is the only reason I can see to fill the seat before election day.Democrats MUST LEARN they do not own this SCOTUS seat. It's not their property.
But people in 30 states said yesNo dummy it was 4 million votes and they were all in California. Trump crushed Hillary by 1 million votes in the other 49 states.

Exactly, its a game with rules (The US Constitution & Laws), and the ultimate judges are the USSC.1. Filling a vacant seat is not "stacking the courts".Republicans should learn, they do not get to stack the courts...Democrats MUST LEARN they do not own this SCOTUS seat. It's not their property.

So anyone can try anything, but the laws are the laws, the US Constitution is also the Law, and the USSC judges are the deciders.It's a flawed document but I like it a lot.

I don't blame the democrats for trying to fill Scalia's seat with a liberal judge. Article-2 says that is okay.Exactly, its a game with rules (The US Constitution & Laws), and the ultimate judges are the USSC.1.

Dems started this shit trying to fill Scalia's seat with a liberal and would have without any doubt had they controlled the Senate. They don't deny it. Now Dems want the change the rules.
The people chose the President and Senate. The President nominates the justices, the Senate confirms the justices. The People have chosen their President, his name is Donald J Trump, he is President until January 20th 2021. Our President has a duty to nominate the next justice immediately, and the Senate, which serves until January 1, 2021 has a duty to vote on that nominee immediately so a full compliment of 9 Supreme Court Justices can rule on this potentially contested Presidential election.This is a simple poll to make a relevant political point.
In the 2016 Presidential Election, one of the primary reasons that Trump voters voted for Trump over Hillary was to DENY Hillary the chance to nominate any Supreme Court justices. Trump won the election. It would be a betrayal of HIS voters confidence for him to do anything less than what he was elected to do.
