Democrats keep saying "no scotus until the people decide"

[bodecea]

Republicans are the hypocrites. They refused to act on Obama's nomination of Merrick Garland by saying that voters should decide in the election. This is a good example of how Republicans have abused their majorities.

presidential election this year I haven't heard about?

Midterms are elections as well.

The delay over Garland was to allow the INCOMING president to name his preferred Justice.

at the time the delay started, Hillary was considered a shoe in, and it was predicted she would also name Garland, or someone similar.

if the democrats somehow take the Senate, are thy going to delay Trumps nominations til either HE leaves office, or THEY lose the Senate?

I agree, but not with the big difference between the two elections. Yes, the "delay" over Garland was to allow the new President to make the pick. In this case, the senate's ability to confirm or deny the nomination is equally worthy for that argument.

In that case we would never be able to replace justices because we have an election every two years. The Republicans never held a justice back because of midterms. It's just a phony excuse because the Democrats are still pissed about the Republicans holding out until after a PRESIDENTIAL election.

Thank you, GOP Senate for starting this delaying tactic. Now live with your own creation.

Thing is the people already decided when the GOP hijacked the process under Obama. Like that act or not it put the direction of the court FIRMLY in the hands of the voter.
Voters chose and the left lost so why hold up more nominees when the people have already spoken?

And spare me the popular vote or Russia Russia Russia bullshit.

Lmao! The people have not yet spoken for this term. Dozens of seats are going to change hands, those voters need to be counted.

The voters did decide and put Trump and the Republicans in power.

Obama didn't have the Senate votes to confirm Garland, Trump does have the votes to confirm his pick.

It's pretty simple. What you have is in medical terms called butt hurt. It's complicated by that you also have a case of spoiled child syndrome.

I'll let this guy explain it to you

‘Elections have consequences’

At the time you theives used this excuse the voters had decided and put president Obama in office, and he won without Russian help and even got the popular vote too.

I voted for Johnson, I'm a libertarian, moron.

And Hillary cost Hillary the election. You picked a shitty candidate. Get over yourself

Voted for Walker here. Am eager to see how things pan out over the next year though. Last winter was abnormally busy in my business after Trumps election. If it continues this fall and winter he will likely get my vote in 2020 if he runs again.

I'll probably vote for Trump in 2020 if he builds the wall and not if he doesn't. Without a wall, the flood of Democrat voters will bury us. No law from there would be permanent as Democrats would undo it. They're socialists and openly violent now

Charlie "Chuckles" Shummer has said IF Trump wants to PROVE he is fair Appoint Garland! Hey Chuckie, FUCK YOU!

I don't remember exactly; you know how he dances around making a direct statement. But he's holding back for the ratings on Monday night at 9 p.m., dontcha know.

Oh come on now! You cannot remember what you are accusing him of?

I am not accusing him of anything.

So, since he didn’t say anything that you can actually remember I think you will see a white young catholic woman seated on the Supreme Court. Great news for women yes?

Okay, that's your wish, stick with it. We'll see, as the Great Orange Groper says.

You're so pathetic that you attack Trump for being a groper while you defend and vote for Slick and his hoe who assaulted innocent victims.

Consent is lost on you. I have a feeling that in your own life, your consent does matter

Who are Slick and his hoe? I think it's ho, actually. A hoe is for weeding your garden.

The Groper's women weren't all consenting, whoever they are.

I agree. There is hypocrisy all the way around. I said at the time that Garland deserved an up or down vote. The GOP had the majority, so they could have voted him down.

Yes, they said the next President should decide.

Abusing the shit out of them.

So do you think Trump gets to replace Sotomayor before he replaces Ginsburg?

Both parties used to put politics aside when it came to Supreme Court Justices
They deferred to the President in his choice unless there were specific critical objections

Republicans changed that process to where an opposing candidate will not even be considered while they hold the Senate. They invoked the nuclear option where only a majority is needed to confirm

Now they get to live under the same rules

But a bad decision doesn't have to be repeated, does it? It was egregious what McConnell did. I don't agree with the Dems doing the same thing, even though their argument makes as much sense, I guess.

It is just one more excuse for refusing to get anything whatsoever done in Congress. This has to end.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Hijacked the process? Barry Hussein was a lame duck who was term limited to a couple of months when the choice for SCOTUS came up. President Trump has 2 1/2 years left in his first term. Even if democrats want to re-invent the Constitution there is no precedent for waiting until after mid-term elections. Democrats have to put away their anger or seek professional help and live with the reality that President Trump will pick a nominee for the Supreme Court.

Garland was nominated in March of 2016. There was plenty of time for the nomination to be taken up. Kennedy retired in June and McConnel says he wants a vote by October. Amazing how fast they can move when they want to.

And the Senate decided not to take it up.

Fast like a mutha fukka!

In the context of the next Supreme Court nomination...

The Democrats are well and truly phukked...

They have zero chance of getting one of their own on the bench, and...

They have zero chance of blocking or delaying Trump's upcoming choice...

The Republicans will use the Nuclear Option and simply bypass them...

With a great wailing and gnashing of teeth and pulling-on of the hair shirt on the part of the Democrats, to be sure...

Democrats will then be reminded that it was one of their own - Harry Reid - who orchestrated the new Senate Rules Nuclear Option...

What goes around, comes around, right, Harry?

I assume by who is Slick you're trying to be funny. Whether you like it or not, Slick Willy was his nickname, you can't possibly not know that. And there is only one former President who assaulted women and you claim to not even know who it was. Again, you're a misogynist. Women are allowed to be leftists. They are not allowed to not be a leftist. You're a Democrat, not a woman. At least that's your priority.

As for hoe, see definition two

Urban Dictionary: hoe

You're dreaming

better than the nightmare republicans and trump are giving us now

Awe poor child. The big ole meanie is give you nightmares.

Perhaps you need a new safety blanket?

With the us against the world attitude you trump and your republican friends have you'll be needing more than that blanket,,,,,,,but you can always count on your commie friend Putin

Since Putin is more of a friend to Americans than any democrat, counting on him would put us in good hands.

I really pray for you to get what you wish for tippy

 

[Mike473]

I don't know what the Dems are thinking here. Right now they have some leverage. They are in a position to push for a moderate conservative judge, with Collins and couple others preferring that kind of choice. The Republicans have great odds of picking up several more seats in the Senate as it is. If the blue wave crashes, which I believe it likely will, Trump could be in a position after the election to put Mike Lee or Ted Cruz on the court if he wanted. The Dems need to accept that Garland or someone like him will not be nominated. They need to work toward a moderate candidate and get the best deal they can.

Everyone in DC is a hypocrite. Everyone of us are hypocrites.

Now, do you have anything productive to offer?

You don't have anything to offer. Your OP was dishonest. If you were a kid, you would deserve a good spanking for not telling the whole truth. I am not a hypocrite. I treat Trump theY same way that I treated Obama and even Clinton. Trump like Clinton does not deserve to be President as they are both sexual predators.

WTF is this off topic tantrum?
No one here cares about your feelings.

The only thing that is off is you and other Trump supporters. I believe in fair play and are tired of politics as usual. Republicans represent all the things that are wrong with this country. That is why I would like to see Democrats take over the House and Senate with moderates being the swing vote. We need to defang crazies on the Democrat left and the Republican right. Reagan was a right of center politician not a far right politician.

More off topic gibberish.

Very much on topic. You are spouting gibberish..

The thread is about the supreme court and Democrats. All you've offered is the typical whining about the mean ole GOP.

I'll be telling you the same thing years from now when our Senate does the same to your President. The delay tactic used by Republicans was the presidential election--not midterms. Like always, you on the left lie like all hell.
