Jarrett: “Unkind” For McConnell To Talk Ginsburg Replacement So Soon | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
Like the Democrats weren’t gonna be freaking out about the possibility… immediately? Please
Hypocrite.
Malcolm Ledger 🤡
@Malcolm Ledger < - - - idiot
it’s unkind to talk about this so soon…
ALSO: starts talking about replacement….
@Wassily Kandinsky not uninformed or a troll. You just won’t get your head out of the fake news.
@Alexander Liptak keep telling yourself that. Reporters always know more than those that actually investigate. Inspite of all your fake news, Biden still bragged about his own quid pro quo. He did it. Trump didn’t, or he would have been impeached for it. He wasn’t.
How bout hunters sweetheart deal with China. 1.5 billion I think. Do you think he would have won that one if daddy wasn’t vice president? We’ll see more about Biden’s corruption after his protected status as the democrat candidate goes away.
@Wassily Kandinsky that would be most unsanitary! At least make the story more palatable. Do a false narative like these guys. Say they used PPEs on Bidens recommendation because he handled it better by mandating use of gloves when removing gunk from people’s eyes. Now, had they worn eye protection such as goggles 1 week earlier 35 billion people wouldn’t need gunk removed from their eyes! Science instead of facts or is it truths not facts ugh you know ” the thing”!!! Can I sniff you??
@jla7blue Ok, I believe you. You seem to be sincere. But if I listen to what Trump says and how he is contradicting himself in innumerable cases and when I do a fact-check, which is difficult but not impossible, I come to the clear conclusion, that Trump is a liar, I can’t say it in another way. And he is a convicted fraud in many cases like Trump University, bankruptcies etc. etc.. That’s plain and simple not fake news but the truth. Every American could know that. What do you think about him downplaying the Covid19 virus officially and then saying to Bob Woodward in the interview, that he knows otherwise? Have you heard that? There are no media comments whatsoever needed to see what has happened here and there are innumerable other cases of this kind. Do you think the American people can not take and handle the truth, like Trump says: “I wanted to always play it down,” “I still like playing it down because I don’t want to create a panic.” I checked the numbers of Covid-deaths in the USA and compared it to other countries that informed their people which did nowhere result in panic, but the measures taken lead to much lower death tolls than in the USA. And its not fake news like Trump tries to tell you. No it’s not. Trump lies about these numbers. The reason is very obvious. He can never ever admit the slightest mistake. If you think that is a strength, it’s not. It’s a severe and dangerous weakness in his position. He is very easily manipulated by other leaders.
Don’t be duped by what you like to believe. Put aside your emotions for once and use your rational faculties and check Trump’s statements. How on earth can you conclude that Trump is telling you the truth?
@RAPHAEL CAMACHO . Just look what Trump told and still tells you about wearing masks and compare it to what Fauci and Redfield say about it. And compare to the handling in Europe and compare the death tolls. Trump blatantly lied about that. He is incapable of telling the truth if it does make him looking bad and too many Americans believe him. Are they not capable of facing discomforting truths? That’s a dangerous weakness.
Yeah. Unkind for all mainstream media outlets to discuss Scalia’s replacement before Rigor set-in too ! It’s all politics !
Yeah poor Scalia. They thought they’d get away with that…
Translation: “Talking about replacing her with a conservative judge is insulting.”
Why ,Should a CONSERVATIVE President put a Liberal in?Like I am sure the Dems would do that.
The sad hypocrisy of both sides…. each ignoring their sad state.
“Gonna irritate some people” what else is new. Now, who’s going to replace her
Her body wasn’t even cold before they started making plans for her replacement. Yet Obama appointment was put off over a year? WTF
@Dominant Allele well through evil
@Dominant Allele How could they do anything? The Senate was controlled by the Republicans and many of them made a solemn promise that if a Republican were elected in 2016, they’d do the same in 2020. They have no honor, no integrity and no shame.
OBAMA’S APPOINTMENT, GOP HAD CONTROL OF THE SENATE THEIR CALL….SAME HERE GOP HAVE CONTROL OF THE SENATE THEIR CALL……..DEMOCRATS WOULD DO THE SAME THING IF IT WAS THE OTHER WAY AROUND SO STOP PLAYING GAMES……
@Dominant Allele Obama and the Democrats ‘let it happen’ because they chose to focus their fight with the Senate on other things. It was his last year in office, there were other things he needed to finish up, and fighting a supreme court nomination, uphill all the way, requires a lot. So they let it go. But yeah, as usual, the Senate GOP chose NOT to do their JOB.
@Dominant Allele Ruth did not step down to retire even for Obama when he wanted her to.
Well.. now we all know what Valerie Jarrett picked for Halloween.
“Phony” reverence for Ginsburg from Republicans, and Conservatives? Ya’ll want that, even though it would be phony? Well, I don’t think you’ll have that to worry about anyway. I don’t think phony reverence is going to be given. Lots of people have been waiting for this moment, for a long time. Same as some folks walk around every day hoping President Trump will drop dead. And, those folks have not been shy about saying so. Timing is everything, they say.
At least the Republicans are showing respect to someone they know as a worthless POS leftist upon her death. You DemonRats don’t even do that because “respect” doesn’t exist in your limited vocabulary.
RBG was confirmed around this time of Clinton’s re-election
Like Valarie really has compassion. Its all political show. She is just using this as another opp to slam what she knows is coming.
Like Trump and his GOP enablers are not corrupt and criminal traitors? The evil is undeniable.
Really, too soon… how about Chucky jumping on the topic of replacement, yeah !!! Dems will be out in force as usual to throw the wrench into the mix.
Was this whole news program about somebody’s feelings and time frames on when people feel that they should be able to do something it’s never gonna be about timing it’s going to always be about these little people and their feelings democrats are mental
“Elections have consequences”…..who said that…
Bath house Barry
This is sad. You’re trying to play the “you’re mean” card when things feel as dire as they do for each side of the political fence. There are bigger things happening than Ruth Ginsberg (RIP).
I saw the preview image and immediately thought this was an SNL skit about Ginsberg.
I wish she would shut up, if the President passed away, she would be head of the line to demand something different.
We’ve been talking about her replacement for nearly 4 years
Interestingly, no one has confirmed that RBG will actually be giving up her seat either. 😉
Good.
I’ve been thinking about it for 15
“Unkind” For McConnell To Talk Ginsburg Replacement So Soon
Really?
Let’s be honest here. She was 87 years old and had battled cancer 4 times. Regardless of political affiliation, any honest person would have recognized months or years ago there was the potential she would die or be forced to resign due to ill health during Trump’s Presidency.
6 minutes after the announcement of her death is a tad quick. Not exactly classy either.
@Linda and Warren FowlPatt Dementia Joe Biden looks half dead – barely able to read the teleprompter – This is elder abuse, they’re obviously using this old corpse to try to get HeelsUp KamelToe Harris to presidency
Meh, it was “unkind” for RBG to absurdly misinterpret the 2nd Amendment in 2008 to fit her activist fantasies.
underrated comment.
The Second Amendment’s purpose is against the tyranny of the government. If that is not understood people will lose their liberty! I stand by it for the state of my liberty. The sport of hunting is irrelevant. Ignorance is a tool of enslavement.
I guess Schumer talking about it first was okay though.
