McCaskill: The American People Respect Fairness | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
The felon that will replace her is cleaning out his federal prison cell right now while waiting for his pardon to be typed up.
Sweet, it will still be an upgrade from that wretched witch. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
@ElroyRillaz Let me guess…part of Trump’s so called Christian base?
@Merrilou Neigenfind yeah, we don’t worship witches who sacrifice babies..
@ElroyRillaz All prolife taxpayers in the US support through their tax dollars Israeli women who receive government funded abortions on demand as they should. Hence, all prolife taxpayers in this country are hypocrites. What a shock. Make vasectomies mandatory. Problem solved. Conservative Christian is an oxymoron. Duh. Matthew 25:40.
The fact that McConnell talked about replacing the amazing RBG less than 1hr after her death is appalling and disgusting.. Kentucky will vote him right back in though so he can be as nasty and corrupt as he wants because he knows he has his seat because they vote against themselves..
Richard Madcow was on MSNBS talking about President Biden replacing her though.
The raging hypocrisy of Mitch McConnell will undermine the very legitimacy of the court. Justice must be objective in order to be respected. Decisions are being politically orchestrated and not decided based on objective truth and law.
Respect Fairness? Joe Biden made a statement after the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ginsburg, reading from a script and opining that whoever wins the presidential election should nominate her replacement. Biden said her replacement should be selected by the winner of the election in November. He couldn’t even stay quiet about that until she could be honored and remembered, like POTUS did. Trump never said anything about a replacement! Joe said. “let me be clear that the voters should pick the President, the President should pick the Justice for the Senate to consider.” Don’t worry Joe, POTUS will do that, after a period of mourning! And the Senate will appoint BEFORE the election!
So sad. Well gee wiz, I guess well, ah I guess President Trump will have to fill that seat with a hard core Republican. Guess it is fitting since he is going to win 2020. Democratic party is finished. We will run the Supreme court for about 20 30 years and over turn like Roe VS Wade.
Thank you God in heaven.
@The Truth yeah, he’ll fill the seat with another pseudo politician with a law degree in exchange for political power. In the process he undermines the pillars of our system of governance and democracy. It’d be a pyrrhic victory at best. The court will have to be restructured in order to restore trust.
brilliantly said, ty sen mccaskill and ms wallace.
@Anita Bruton what am I claiming? I think you have totally misunderstood me, but on all honesty that is actually probably my fault.
@Swamp Slayer This is a Troll copy and pasting the same message in several threads.
@Swamp Slayer i dont know did she? So whats your point?
@Unknown Variable Just another demonrat, drowning in an ocean of moral depravity
@Swamp Slayer there are bad democrats. There are bad republicans. There are bad libertarians. There are bad pig farmers. There are bad people in any group you can think of. So whats your point? I dont much about McCaskill tbh, i don’t really care who she is. I am not a big follower of idols but rather ideas. So Im not sure if you trying to attack me or make a relevant point. Could you please explain?
I’ve been holding out Hope for this COUNTRY since January 20, 2017 I 🙏 “We The People” are ready for what The 🍊🤡, MOSCOW 🐢 MITCH and other GOP 🐑 THUGS are about to do in order to stay in Power and out of Jail.
for Ruth – Blackbird (live) by Paul McCartney. For everyone else: VOTE. Vote as early as possibly, complete the census & help at least two more people outside your household to do the same.
Trump surging in Polls, and Biden slumping…TOLD YOU SO! ……..AND we haven’t even reached the debates. Trump will be re-elected by the dis-satisfied Democrat voters.
@Jack J Figures you support President Murderer…200,000 dead from Covid-19. Smh
@The Truth Trump supporters are Christians? You’re so called God ( in a snit) murdered babies, children, and the unborn in the Flood. Spin that. Lol
(lol ) … I don’t blame Trump for this. The China Virus is not his fault, nor is it his fault that our culture has become so risk-averse that a president doesn’t have the option, politically, of looking the American people in the eye and saying, “We’ll do what we can to help, but we can’t completely protect you from this, and the effort to do so might cause more harm than good.” As all leaders throughout the world were, Trump was truly caught between the rock of the virus and the hard place of economic disaster, and there was no way to win, particularly not given how much the mainstream media despise him. This is why it is so disingenuous of Brain-dead Biden, the man whose COVID-19 strategy the Wall Street Journal called “Joe’s Me-Too COVID Plan” because of its similarity to Trump’s plan to suggest that if only he were president, things would be different.
@Anita Bruton Didn’t get McCaskill get caught cheating, which is why she’s longer in office herself? Oh the hypocrisy of the Left, always on full display.
McConnell took $3.5 million from the Russians for his last campaign.
Rotten to the core.
On the other hand MeidasTouch just released a brilliant ad using Lindsay Graham’s words in re the right thing to do. Not that it matters to this most craven and corrupt administration in American history.
FAKE NEWS ! do you have proof ?
@Pham Tran Pham Tran Ah. Another hater of the US.
Some wise people say that killing Trump is a form of self-defense if you believe him being alive will result in your death. Would that be a tragedy?
This election isnt just about voting Dump out of office.
VOTE OUT MOSCOW MITCH
#BYEDON2020
🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮
TRUMP 2020!. Joe Biden is SENILE!
Some Americans respect fairness .
So sad. Well gee wiz, I guess well, ah I guess President Trump will have to fill that seat with a hard core Republican. Guess it is fitting since he is going to win 2020. Democratic party is finished. We will run the Supreme court for about 20 30 years and over turn like Roe VS Wade.
Thank you God in heaven.
@The Truth more likely he’ll just appoint the latest bimbo he’s been boinking . Of course she will have to be qualified , which is to say she will have to be a criminal . Can you think of a more fitting and longer lasting legacy for this president than to rub our nose’s in that ? Just wait and see . Thank you Christians .
No Ms. McCaskill. If the American people genuinely respected fairness we’d be living in a very different country.
The country hasn’t reflected the will of its people for generations now.
Tricky? This is not tricky. They will bring a vote to see where everyone stands and put an enormous amount of pressure on senate republicans.
NC has been caught disqualifying tens of thousand’s of black vote’s and people of color, NC! Folk’s Trump did say that the outcome of the election will be determined by WHO does the counting. Yea and don’t we know It. Vote blue across the board America because this is a war now.
Just remember, that Trump even call his own supporters – disgusting people ❗
When ? Put the link of the video here .
@D C And called dead soldiers “losers” and “suckers”.
Rest In Peace Ruth✨ So many Americans will fight to honor your last wish just as you fought for equal rights for so many. My heart goes out to her family and friends 🌛🌞🌜
her last wish is supremely selfish and unsurprising…and to anyone that watched GoreV Bush. you can see just how selfish it is to put the country itself at risk to appease her political druthers
BIDEN NOT 15 MINUTE’S AFTER IT WAS PUT OUT THERE WAS TALKING ABOUT REPLACING HER ( JUSTICE GINSBURG ) SEAT AND wanting to wait till after thee election. . . NEXT
Dems were never fair to the gop. Now they want to push more of their B S.
And who’s gotten to have 2 Presidents in 20 years that LOST he popular vote? Now, when I see BS I see you behind it, pushing.
Under these exact circumstances, if the roles were reversed, does anyone really believe that the Democrats would not do the same thing? What party would not take advantage, when the results favor their side? Are people really that blind?
Of course. People refuse to see Republicans as the cheats they are.
No they don’t. The American people respect money.
Republicans will do anything for a buck.
Mc Connell is going to claim this is different, because President Obama couldn’t run again, so there would definitely be a new President elected in November – even though that election was then 9 months away. I don’t agree, but that’s what he’s going to say.
I now believe the wall Trump aimed to build was a metaphoric wall, a psychological warfare tactic against the importance of the truth – vs – cultural and party differences and framed an identity around that to the point where his base is personally invested. You’d think his base would be more self-aware, have a love for their country over party, and have a sense of self-respect, and honor their sense of morality but they don’t. Their identity is too invested with the Trump brand. It’s like asking my best friend to give up his Nike Sports shoe Collection because they’re anti-American. He won’t be willing to contradict what he chose to love, the brand, the style, and why he bought into it. Besides that, ultimately he would have to admit he was foolish to had been sold on the Nike brand, so much, as to making Nike part of his identity, who he is. So why would he protest who he is? When Trump rallies them all together they feel validated and high five their fellow fools. ~ This is how it works, Trump attacks America’s way of life, good Americans attack Trump’s behavior, demeanor and his message, and then his base get emotional in their alliance to Trump, and now Trump’s base is more loyal to him. Bing!! It’s a cult of personality and not a democracy anymore. How do we reason or debate with a person when they take everything personal. Trump’s base can’t see beyond their passion for Trump. It was all marketing. There is also that dynamic that says, not all Trump supporters are racists, but all racists are Trump supporters. Trump’s base is a base created by a fascist leadership style, definitely not democratic or American. What Trump’s base stands for is very anti-American. Even if the entire country was equally 50% Fascists (Trumpism)/50% Democratic(American), the cult mindset doesn’t know how to settle their differences and they don’t care what the truth is or means or the harm it is causing when they lie and corrupt the truth, because they’re too busy defending their identity. Any reality that you present that apposes their reality (logical, true or not) will be considered a threat to their identity. They won’t be thinking it, but that’s they will perceive it to be, an attack on their identity. If you attack Trump’s message (true or not), you are attacking them. To stir chaos which reinforces the emotional ties to the Trump brand, Trump is like a mix-messaging DJ, mixing race, party, bullying, humor, cruelty, crime, lawlessness, faking his image, and keeping us occupied fact checking his lies while he tears the country apart. This is called intentional sabotage and treason by the way. Instead of owning up to the truth, their enemy, they defer to “What aboutis’m”, smearing, name calling and conspiracy theories to avoid being held accountable. Their answers to lies, are more lies, they’re very reckless and disruptive. To them, shame and honor never enters the equation. There is no logical or moral way to defend their lies, defending Trump’s lies and fascism is the same as defending themselves. Defending the country never enters the equation. They will lie to themselves to maintain their sense of identity. Their identity is emotionally reinforced, so much that it may appear as a mental illness. Extreme Trumpism can be a clinical case when an individual finds themselves detached from reality, emotional while irrational and resort to violence when being faced with the truth. The truth is the enemy to their identity or to the message of their cult leader. It is in their constant interest to attack the truth. We can say that Trumpism is a psychological pandemic that could have been avoided if the GOP had honored the oath they took to defend and uphold the constitution. Donald Trump was enabled and unleashed by the GOP/Republicans. Even though he was voted in, as a contingency and protocol of National Security, he should have been impeached and removed within the first 6 months of this presidency as he was deemed by many as a clear and present danger to our country and our democracy and in violation of his oath to the constitution. Donald Trump betrayed his country and has a lot to answer for when he comes down from that DJ booth.
All racists Hate Jesus!
