re: Lets say ruth ginsberg dies sometime now till the

That's how it works. How old are you?

They can’t do shite but I promise you they will try. I can almost garauntee you if she dies then they go for impeachment. As long as Rs aren’t pussies that won’t do anything but you never know

So what yall saying is that if ginsberg dies, trump can nominate and get approval cuz republicans have the senate and not the house

This.
Constitution: President nominates and Senate confirms.

Plus Democrats do not care about traditions. Example Pelosi getting her pussyhat in a bunch and interfering in State of the Union speech for political purposes.

Thank Harry Reid (D-Nevada) former head of the last Democratic controlled Senate, who changed the traditional 60 vote threshold of judicial nominees to 51.

Both of Trump’s nominees have been Reid Ruled onto SCOTUS, and it appears to soon be 3 with RGB!

There's nothing in the Constitution to prevent a Democrat President and controlled Senate from packing the Court.

They'll claim extremists populate the Court as their reasoning.

Civics 101:

Senate confirms justices. house has not part of the process

and after Mitch changed senate procedure rules. only need one vote majority (counting VP's tie breaking vote) to confirm.

Civics 102:

Harry Reid changed the rules, not Mitch

If she ain't already gone she is circling the drain.

Time for Amy Barrett to come on down!

Something definitely stinks with this story.

Maybe it's RBG's rotting corpse.

Not down with the Constitution, huh?

Obama was asked to not nominate a replacement because he had less than a year till the end of his term, they wanted to save it for the next president. The way I feel about it, as long as she dies before November, that's Trumps nomination. The dems should just step out of the way but you know they wont.

If 5he Democrats had controlled the Senate in 2016, Merrick Garland would be a Supreme Court Justice right now. In order to do what McConnell and the GOP did, that party has to be in the majority.

I don't know why this simple fact keeps getting overlooked. The GOP could absolutely appoint a Supreme Court nominee in 2020, because they control the Senate.
