Looks like Trump might nominate Ted Cruz or Tom Cotton, and Mitch Mcconnell is gonna jam it through. I think America is toast.

Didn't Cruz very recently state he'd never accept a Supreme Court position?

I have to imagine that there would be a solid handful of Red Senators who would say no on that one...
R.I.P. American Democracy.
Moscow Mitch will ram a new appointee through. Republicans will hold the Senate and block all new legislation. Any old legislation they don't like will be struck down as "unconstitutional".
Damn guys, no need to attack conservatives with your conspiracy theories about who Trump is going to appoint.
It's gonna be Amy Coney Barrett. A nice, Catholic, conservative woman.

No es bueno.

If Republicans do end up filling this seat, I hope Democrats respond in kind with adding more justices to the court should they gain power.

Ah, I hadn't read into it and was hopeful that the system required both houses of congress. Sigh. Well here's hoping they can't get somethin together before the election. |
The new Congress/president wouldn’t be sat until January... so they technically have until then to push a nominee through... I expect a lame duck confirmation will happen sometime in December while republicans still control the senate and the presidency (I expect they will lose both in November...)
