Let me preface this by saying ABC & others are already panicking about "Drumph" (dumb insult) getting rid of RoevWade.

Seriously-Calm the **** down!!-There is zero time to do this before election!!
There will be no senate hearings even on this before the election. There is simply no time. Average confirmation time is around 60 days at best! These senators also want to be campaigning in an election year not stuck in DC on Halloween! Also, do you seriously think Toad will nominate someone next week and McConnell get him approved the week after? Not. Gonna. Happen. Do you seriously think Ernst, Romney, Tillis and Collins will allow a power grab?? Smarten up!
Now, more importantly, RIP to RBG, one of the best SCOTUS appointees ever and a marvellous human being!

2. January 20
They have until December 31 to confirm someone, that can be in before Biden even takes office on January 20, 2021.

24. I'm sorry but all the "norms" are gone.
We’re in uncharted waters.
And it doesn’t matter, there will be a full on right wing nut on the court before the end of the year
Your side put us in this "new normal," jerkoff. YOUR SIDE! And America is fighting back. This breaking news tonight just makes it a little easier.

50. Graham will hold one fast, Mitch will bring it to vote.
Republican bass will be appreciative of it.
None of them care about decency or norms.
Funny considering the last 110 nights of riots & unrest. Oh I forgot, you only watch the MSM, so moltov cocktails, high powered lasers shined in cop's eyes, and countless other atrocities won't be shown to you...

53. Nothing is normal about any of this.
They've broken every unwritten rule in government that they could, and they've done it with a wink and a smile.
They'll seat someone before October is done.
Burden of proof is on you for that accusation.

28. +1, I'm gob smacked at what people think these enablers of murdering 200,000 Americans wont do
Woooooooooooow. It's like they think Trump developed & unleashed it on the US. (since this primitive didn't mention world death toll)
