This is breaking news with ramifications that could change the face of the supreme court.

This is breaking news.

Judge Barrett is the most likely replacement.

*snip*

You might want to change that. Wishing death on someone is a bozo nono for the site.

I do, and I am.
Shes done some good work, its time to stop playing partisan tug of war and let her get some rest.

She does not want rest.

She probably does want to make sure her replacement is someone on her preferred side of politics though. And thats the part of the problem with the SC as I see it. And something I don't have an answer to.

If that where true she would have retired early in Obama' second term. When I say she does not want to rest I mean she wants to be doing the job.

Pete Buttigieg proposal. 15 justices, 5 being apolitical (approved by a bipartisan law committee)

Ehhh fair enough I suppose.

I dislike RBG but I have to admit, they sure as hell don't make em like they used to. I'd bet she'll kick this infection pretty quick and be back to swinging her mallet (how many law folks can I annoy with that comment?) shortly.

I'm hoping for coronavirus, at this point some conservatives are the only thing that'll save the US. But then again I've no hope that anything will save this world from the inevitable collapse of society brought on by the radical communists who have infiltrated certain facets of society and are bringing it down. And yes I really do believe this.

The US is in a very sad state, even conservatives are becoming yesterday's liberals...

[Geneviev]

I hope she recovers, and I will pray. No one should have people wishing for their deaths for political purposes.

[Tarsonis]

Barrett is female so clearly liberal by default.

of course she is.

The fact trump wants her placed isn't a good mark. Then again. He will probably place a guy......

Barrett should have been given the nod over Kavenaugh. It would be hilarious having an anti-abortion Female Justice on the court and watching people try to condemn her as anti-woman.

Just to be clear, you're hoping Justice Ginsburg dies from COVID-19?

[The Black Forrest]

of course she is.

Meh. Kind of boring as it already goes on. Just like the rino/dino thing.
...
If there is an opening; I think if there was opening, trump would place another guy. Unless.......she does the full fealty thing and can't utter a comment without praising Trump in some fashion......

She does not want rest.

I strongly disagree with RBG's leftist views and politics, but she is a tough lady, I wish her well. President Trump is correct when he said there are leftist Judges, what he did not say is there are right wing Judges as well, like RBG on the left and Brett Kavanaugh on the right.

If the worse comes to worse and she has to resign or passes away, I hope President Trump appoints a strong conservative Justice before the elections, like Amy Barrett. Any strong conservative Justice.

Like I said earlier, it is election year, just like Obama was not allowed to have his choice go through, neither should Trump.

I understand. But we don't expect it to happen, and I hope if worse comes to worse and she resigns or passes away, which I don't wish her too, I hope Trump will appoint a strong conservative Justice before the elections. She is a tough lady. RBG.

And yes, this is really a *** Warning for Trolling ***.

Wishing for others' death isn't kosher here.

Trump is going to lose, and Republicans might lose the Senate too. But you won't admit that.

[US-SSR]

Hurry up November.

Of course, should something happen to RBG between now and the election, the McConnell Rule would demand that no hearings be held on a replacement until the new Congress sits.

[Tarsonis]

Hey, it worked for McConnell.

Whichever change you're referring to, Democrats did it first

Please nobody in their right mind thinks that McConnell would obey the Biden rule again.

[Nobel Hobos 2]

Refusing to hold hearings on Obama's nominee for Supreme Court, because it was within a year of an election.

Oh do enlighten us on when the Democrats in the Senate refused a hearing for a Republican Supreme Court nominee on an election year. :^]

You can thank Biden for that precedent.

[Bear Stearns]

Trump would not have time to replace RBG before the election even if she died tomorrow. It's moot point to argue about that.
