Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s Dying Wish: To ‘Not Be Replaced Until A New President Is Installed’ | MSNBC
Just a warning , the further down you scroll the more brutal the comments get.
@Dakota Miller- as opposed to Trump handing everything over to Putin.
Stop grasping for straws- it wasnt that long ago a republican president (Bush Jr) basically handed the economic reigns over to China & Republicans praised him.
@fresatx ⬅️ another disgusting POS
@Bouhhg Z Say it slower… Ive got my lotion now. Mmmmmmmm
Let me help.
@Maria M You want some cheese with that whine girl?
Rest in Peace RBG.
🖤🧡🧡
@G K chill out its just a fetus.
I hope she sees all the babies that never got a chance at life, because of her.
@Chris aborted babies go to heaven, i doubt she will be there
@Touched by a Priest Your mother should have treated you as just a fetus. Sadly, she did not.
Ha! Double standards. Mitch McConnell is a walking & breathing (barely) complex of double standard…
I love double standards at this point in time.
McConnell’s position has evolved. He has adopted the position of the Democrats of that time. He is more progressive now.
Senators do the right thing.
Yes, replace her ASAP!!
I like how she said installed, not elected.
Ruth Ginsburg was a real Patriot.
She was one of the last bulwarks against Trump-era fascism. I fear a worse comes in her place.
“We need to respect her by not appointing a replacement.” Huh?
She needs to be replaced the day after her burial.
Just leave the supreme court at 8 seats. It will save a lot of trouble.
Mitch does not care if he’s called a hypocrite. You won’t be able to shame him into being consistent.
If the shoe were on the other foot, and the Dems could push a new SC Justice in place before the election, 1)would they 2)would you object to them doing this?????
Yeah, consistency is important. So just make up BS stories again about the next nominee.
That’s because consistency was never the point – just getting his way.
Plus he has no shame to work upon
@Shift -Z
The shoe WAS on the other foot, and it’s payback time.
@Shift -Z That happened in 2016.
Winning.
I guarantee you that Mitch McConnell is dancing and salivating at the chance to replace her.
And he will do it without any feeling of shame at all. Power is more important than integrity.
Jock Young In this environment created by the left who have legitimized political violence it most certainly is.
I don’t know if he is, but I am.
dont think that’s gonna happen
@Michael Dominick
Oh grow up. Nobody has condoned violence. Ever, And you know it.
God bless you Ruth Ginsberg with your family be well
