123 days until inauguration.... I’m worried that delaying RBG’s replacement for that long might not be possible AND EVEN IF IT IS; That the potential to have Trumps pick locked in, will be enticing enough for some conservatives that might not have voted for Trump in this election to go ahead and vote for him purely so he can get his nominee confirmed. 😩 This for sure gives Trump some steam in this election. I’m hoping though that it also gets more of the left out there to get him out. I’m hopeful but scared. Ughhhhhhh Why did she have to go now? It’s a great loss no matter what, but this timing couldn’t be worse. 😭

Damn. RIP RBG
Three SCOTUS judges for the worst President ever? Let's hope Joe Biden will appoint four more judges to restore law and order ASAP then.

I trust your opinion, drnickIs there a chance he doesn’t get his pick confirmed in time? I know Obama was blocked for putting his selection in back in 2016 almost a year out from him leaving office... Is there any chance that the same thing happens here and that the senate will not a confirm Trumps pick? Ughhhhh...... Like I said, this seat opening means some conservatives who might not have voted for Trump might now vote for him, just for the fact that itd mean a republican taking RGB’s place. 😫 Please don’t let this all go to shit. F*** TRUMP F*** McCONNELL

F*** TRUMP F*** McCONNELL Seriously, I don't know. But if so, I don't think time will be the issue. What I've read on twitter, there are two Republican senators who don't support a vote on a new SCOTUS judge, one of them Mitt Romney, but two more would be needed to block another Trump judge.

Thats if we want to believe their word on that.... which I'm not so sure I do. 😬 We can't expect them to play fair. I've read in a few articles tonight an interesting tactic... Democrats play hardball, and basically threaten this: If you approve Trumps judge we will not hesitate to add seats to the Supreme Court as a way take control / create balance. (Biden would have to win the Presidency and democrats would have to take over the senate)The threat of this could scare the republican senators enough to not support the vote on a new judge until after the election. Of course even if that threat created a hold off until AFTER the election, the Supreme Court will be fucked anyway IF Trump manages to win a second term. Trump is definitely going to use the Supreme Court seat as a campaign platform, and use it as a way to try and win over potential voters, especially Christian "pro-lifers".. ughhhhh. my head hurttttssssssss Seriously, todays new about RBG helps Trump so much

I know I'm just so fucking scared that this potential seat is going to steer some anti-Trumpers into becoming Trump-supporters. I was already worried about this election, but I thought that there was a good chance that many people who voted for Trump for his first term may have turned their backs on him, BUT NOW THIS HAPPENING could very well win lots of them back. 😫
