Sure she was wrong because she later updated that to she didn't want her replacement named by President Trump. She was, undoubtedly, an intellectual giant that leaned (and fell over) to the left, but she also politicized the Court with her outside comments, IMHO, and that is not proper conduct for a Justice of the Supreme Court. or any other Court for that matter.

It's going to be a battle royal and I sure hope Mitch the Turtle and the boys can get it done. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to get a Conservative majority on the Court and it can't be wasted. Add to that the fact that the President is Constitutionally required to name a replacement and the pending mess that the election will be, even if it's a landslide in either direction, and a full Court is a basic requirement.

Typical Democrat bullshit. Look how well this tweet has aged... And by the way - the McConnell rule, which was previously known as the Biden rule, is no confirmations in a presidential election year when senate and presidency are held by different parties. So it doesn't apply this year.

The "intellectual giant", Susan Collins, has already said that a new Justice shouldn't be appointed until after the election. And she'll be wondering how she managed to lose re-election this time around.
She's one of those I mentioned who needs to "sack up" LOL. She's fighting for re-election in a blue state. She'd rather not have to take a stand on this until after the election. She's a weasel, sure, but every one of them including Mitch care more about their own interests and make "tough stands" when it's convenient for them.

This is a man who does not care about a dying woman's final wish. I am just blown away but her stupidity and this is what Democrats have to look forward to - her leadership?
He "violated" her dying wish?! Such a ridiculous POS is Sandy Cortez. If indeed there even was such, nobody gets a 'dying wish' to subvert the Constitution. RGB had the chance to make it a reality when the dems asked her to retire so Obama could replace her with a younger leftist activist but she refused.

Its coming to a point where it not's even funny any longer. Seriously, how did he even qualify as a candidate? Forget his past, his present is alarming. Other leaders in the world are probably scratching their heads at the moment with the "what if" question
If he becomes elected, his winning speech will be "....." / crickets chirping

With the pandemic being far from over, Trump should just work for another term or delay the election by one year. Its happened before, right after The Great Depression with FDR
