Officials have arranged for a public viewing of her body outside the Supreme Court on Wednesday and Thursday and inside the U.S. Capitol on Friday. Democrats had hoped to get similar support from Gardner, who faces a tough re-election race in Colorado, and Grassley. But both men said on Monday they would vote to confirm a qualified Trump pick.Republican Senator Mitt Romney, who has clashed with Trump and is seen by Democrats as a potential holdout, avoided questions about the Supreme Court seat on Monday.
McConnell, who has prioritized confirming Trump’s judicial appointments, said he would usher through a vote this year, although he did not say exactly when. Trump has already named two conservative justices to the high court, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh.Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer said any vote should take place next year.Trump said without evidence that he did not believe the National Public Radio report that Ginsburg had told her granddaughter she did not want the Senate to consider a successor until next year, when either Trump will begin a second term or Democratic rival Joe Biden, who leads in opinion polls, will take office.
How is it that anytime a Democrat dies they are referred to as an icon?
The president gets the say when there is a tie in the senate and this is why four republican defectors are needed considering the 53-47 balance. Many readers (myself included) were unaware of this fact. I think you should add it to the report. Thanks!
He will probably choose himself... selflove trump trumploveshimself
Minnie Mouse.
Why is he waiting so long? LOL!
7 months and Trump has NoNationalTestingPlan in place for Covid_19 but he already has a replacement for RBG in less than a week! TrumpMustGo NoTestingPlan
'Keep em in suspense' This whole term is one sad reality show.
Just like he said he'd reveal his replacement for ACA? Or reveal his taxes?
GOP will die when trump is defeated. GOP has lost it’s way, the crooks.
What’s there to reveal ?
We're screwed
At least we now the gender already. No more fires necessary.
Awesome 👏🇺🇸👏🇺🇸👏🇺🇸 Thank You President Trump 👏🇺🇸👏🇺🇸👏🇺🇸👏🇺🇸👏
Let me guess: Sean Hannity.
But he won't reveal his tax documents.
Every fvcking thing with him is a game show.
Let me guess, he's announcing his pick from the golf course
Seriously doubt POTUS raced to complete a nomination. There are always succession plans developed when key personnel might be lost for any reason. Succession plans are SOP in any large entity, corporation, the military, etc.
Trump's sucks
Can we finally say that the GOP senate and Trump doesn't care about PEOPLE. 200K dead and no 2nd aid package. People are in food line, dying, and risking eviction and city budgets are so impacted they will DEFUND THE COPS because thy have no money.
Now and eternally, the History of America, will always remain, 'Those who created Blacks'. America will never go 'beyond Africa', they will all die, in the 'Wilderness of Sin', they will die 'In their Sin'... Their sin will 'be remitted in Heaven' and it will be 'swift death'...
😨😱
So. Its potus job to fill the seat.
It's his duty to the constitution and his country to do this.
We can be sure that whoever it is, they will be chosen with the intent to inflict maximum insult to the memory of Justice Ginsberg.
I read a document called 'Constitution of the United States of America.' Article II and Section II of that document says the President has the power to nominate certain public officials, including justices of the Supreme Court.
stoplying. tell them the truth wehy you want them to vote for you so you wont get arrested for fraud traitorous acts against america rape indiv one tax fraud and everything else that is going to come out
have you noticed that the 130K dead Americans since the HERO's act passed is not good enough 4 TRUMP and the GOP to make a bill that can provide aid. But JUDGES yea that comes before the dead the sick and those in food lines.
Its not masks or fake criminal caravans oppressing the 99%. The reason you can't get ahead, is because the conservative elites have rigged the system against you. The truth will set you free.
Of course he would. And his cronies, who didn’t allow Obama to appoint someone in his last year, will support this so very close to the election. And his supporters will cheer this liar who has no shame, this horrible excuse for a President.
So ghastly.
Proud for him 1❤️.
Tax Frauds and Impeached criminals shouldn’t appoint Supreme Court justices
Fill that seat!
Fill the seat! Trump 2020
Dt, when you die, unlike RGB or John Lewis, or Cain, or many others, instead of celebrating your life, people will be celebrating your death.
Everyone get ready for Justice Ivanka. Because 2020
Trump gets all his so called Pick from a far right organization that is against the affordable care act and reproductive rights for women. American people are tired of the cheating lying few getting to pick all the judges that will rule our lives WE NEED TO FIX THIS
I'm sure it's a very thorough vetting process called 'Eeny, meeny, miny, and moe'.
Backpedaling Double talk.
Trump is irrelevant
Pelosi and Schumer are impotent to respond to the colossal betrayal of Senate Republicans. All they do is clutch their pearls and wag their fingers. They are unable to ensure that Republicans pay a price.
Such respect for RBG... Yet,the respect you gave your brother's (John) son.Not allowing at the funeral.Says so much about you .
Empty jar sounds much 😂😆 realDonaldTrump
But all we want is his tax records.
How about that Healthcare plan? 😂😂😂
