So we have to wait until January 20, 2025? Damn, this woman is dense!

OfCourseSheDoes 😏

She should of retired 4 years ago, so what the judge claims to have said vs her actions, didn’t appear to match.

It was not her place to request keeping that seat open till 2024

Justice William Barr or Justice Ted Cruz? FUCKme!!! twice!

RBG is now workin’ from heaven. She’s even more powerful than before.

Good Luck with That under Mob Boss Trump.

SCOTUS To Be Chosen by Trump...Now! Ginsburg July 2016 .....President doesn't stop being President in his last year.

Wishes? That's not how it works here in the USA. If you don't like it, leave.

Here, it is not appropriate to select a person of that pristegious post of a supreme court judge in the wake of coming elections. This should be filled by the coming President only as per the constitutional way.

So , she is willing to wait until 2024.

She really believes she said that🤣😂🤣😂

With all due respect to RuthBaderGinsburg and she is due respect, her final wishes with respect to her replacement are irrelevant. It was never HER seat. It was and is the people's seat. The people voted to make realDonaldTrump President

STAFFERS: TELL KAMALA, SHE DOSEN'T HAVE TO CANCEL HER VACATION NEXT YEAR. KAMALA IS NOT ON THE LIST OF CONSIDERATION FOR 👩‍⚖️Justice of the Supreme Court

trump seçmesin kitlemiş de gitmis kadın iyi etmiş

Can't wait 4 more years.

President Trump Will continue his tenure to ensure the Americans victory, he is the man of the moment for American

Wow, that was a big surprise!

She ain’t the president

Unfortunately, the late Justice Ginsburg's wishes have no force of law. Neither does Biden's token ethnic female running-mate's.

Of course she does.

imagine my shock

Installed? We still elect our presidents don’t we?

Like herself replacing Biden if he wins😂

And when will that be? 2025? 2029? 😯😂

She didn't own her seat nor did she get to dictate how it's filled

“Installed” rings like a word proper for California way of politicking ...the shove it down your throat ...way. No thanks.

Off the campaign trail with no voice

So we have to wait 4.5 years?

The Jamaican/Indian American Kamala Harris sits on the judicial committee, she will automatically has a an opportunity to disrupt the selection.

What a phony!!! Ugh!

NO SHIT !!!

As does the majority of this country.

New president isn't going to happen until January 2025. Too long a wait.

Well isn't that a surprise!!!

Its proper protocol!

Scoop Brady?

Of course Kamala agrees, unless Dems had Senate than it would be done tomorrow!!!

Nice try but that's not her call. And assuming that 'wish' is not complete bs it's highly inappropriate and therefore warrants a vote asap.

I’m sure she does.

Agrees? It’s not RBG private possession it’s not part of her estate. You have no argument here

you do realize the seat isn't private property

So do I. KamalaHarrisVP

shes a baby killer also so they all think alike

❤️

😂😂😂

please ..... dying people rarely speak So I dont believe she even said this Kamala isnt in power yet

Senator Kamala Harris to you newsweek.

Democrats supporting Riots was?

Good for her but no one cares what she thinks, so there's that

Ok ..... So she called her before dying and told her that ?

Shocking!!!

Are we to believe Ginsburg had TDS to the very end?

Of course she does .... both sides hypocrites.

as any decent person should. RIPRuthBaderGinsburg

And?

The people employ and pay each member of the Supreme Court. Since when did their “wishes” exceed over the Constitution and the law?

Tough break kabalah her wish does not override the constitution

It's a wish not a law...

RBG should've resigned, when asked, so Obama could appoint her replacement. Supreme court should have term limits.

Nobody cares what Copmala thinks. Fuck right off.

Harris holds no power right now. Her opinion on this is irrelevant.

Out laws!!!!

But saids nothing about how she paved the way for woman. Yep was elected to fill her seat

she also said Justice Ginsberg requested life sentences for all the non-violent prisoners who were good at fighting fires.

Democrats have 4 or more Republicans who will not vote on Ginsberg Supreme Court seat until after Presidential Election! Trump still can prevail by nominating Judges Amy Barrett or Janet Rogers Brown! Brown, an Afro American on DC Circuit. In short, no vote till after election!

Duh. Imagine that.

But that will be over 4 years from now. Way too long.

Interesting how MoscowMitch wants to replace a justice for Scotus so quickly. But acted so slowly in providing a solution for the pandemic that is killing people.

but that's not the way it works

Gee ya think?...😂. Sadly the constitution doesn’t care about wishes

Harris is the last person who should speak to this situation. She showed her ass during the Kavanaugh confirmation. Simply horrible.

no

They HAVE to get one in cause when the Democrats lose and say Russia and the boogeyman invaded the elections and Trump cheated, you can’t risk having a 4-4 tie with a vacant seat

Of course she would duh. 🙄 MAGA2020

It does make sense. Mitch and others are rushing to replace her. They want to go back to the old days where minorities, especially women could NOT vote. Wake-up American women! Wake-up! Stop tolerating men like Mitch and Trump.

Of course she would duh. 😅 MAGA2020

Replace America ok, OBEY THE LEFT ! 👌OK 👌

The People are not obligated to honor the wish. RBG can’t testate a SCOTUS chair to any political party. Not how works. Proceed with Senate

Of course she does

So says the LADY THAT CAN’T be President

Not her decision it is the PRESIDENTS duty to do so expediciously with the BS DEMOCRATS are trying to pull with this election we may need theSupteme court to figure out. Ginsberg doesn’t supersede Constitution

Who cares?

No shit

Five years until a new president is elected with only eight justices doesn’t seem like a good idea.

Well duh. Such a profound article, Newsweek.

In a whisper, She’s not President.

She also agrees with Joe Biden's accusers.

We can’t wait four more years to replace her.

I can have some crazy dreams but I woke this morning in a panic. I woke trying to tell my family I would be coked by Donald Trump if they left me alone. I utterly felt his hands around my neck. Please God don’t let this evil man destroy us all.

🤪🤪🤪

McConnell shouldn't have a problem with that. It was *exactly* his stance in 2016, after all. They blocked Merrick Garland for 11 months supposedly because it was an election year.

I wish for a lot of things too honey, but they don’t all come true

It’s “Harris Wish and Plan”. Trump shouldn’t give her any chance.

The weakest candidate Biden / Harris , pretty sad when this is the best the democrats have Trump202 😁

Obviously Ruth Bader Ginsburg didn’t know her role !

'Wish' 😂. I bet 30+ million aborted babies wouldn't agree.

Ya don't say?

I think Don was severely shocked and surprized upon hearing of Ruth's death. There's more to the president than we care to think.

The Republicans shall not hear of it...WTF Trump

Is not your decision , you have not saying , Trump2020

Is not about wishes

New President is installed? That doesn’t sounds like RBG would have said that. Who says installed?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Hell will be hot for those killing babies. We need a white Christian man to fill the seat. End special treatment instead of equal rights for certain people.

fake news! She didn’t say such a thng wen she passed away u liars

And McConnell’s 🤔🤔🤔

Kamala Harris stars in new comic book birthday giftA day after her birthday, Kamala Harris is getting her own comic book, chronicling her path from childhood to her historic nomination as U.S. vice president. A comic book is fitting for her. With that charisma it’s amazing she couldn’t get 1% support within her own party. She should have gotten close to 2%. At least the first black president man had the decency to marry a black woman. Even her sister married a black man...

Donald Trump's Sexist, Conspiratorial Obsession With Kamala Harris Stealing the PresidencyAt a campaign rally in Wisconsin, Trump once again pointed his vitriol at Sen. Kamala Harris, musing on the rapture that would certainly ensue if she became the first woman president. “If a woman is going to become the first president of the United States, it can’t be her,” Trump said, speaking from a hypothetical future in which not only is Joe Biden is dead but there has never been any other president in the history of the United States. “That would rip our country apart.”
