Murkowski Won’t Support SCOTUS Vote Before Election | MSNBC
Oh I think we’ve heard this song and dance before!….
Yup
Many times from many Republicans!
We’ve heard her and Susan Collins back track b4 …if they think their race is close now…back track again and see what happens
Orchid 2 fool me once,well we all know the rest.
Orchid 2 Both pathetic flip floppers!
America is
23 in education.
37 in healthcare.
34 in raising family index.
No high-speed train.
Highest number of homeless people.
Highest number of incarcerated people.
78% of people live paycheck to paycheck.
Stock market is not economy of Americans! Where 90% of money belongs to top 10% of the population, it’s wallet for the rich.
Let’s talk like adults, instead of name calling.
I have left the proof on my playlist, if you would like to check!
Let’s make our country better together….
@California Screaming meh…far right and far left, both leave please.
@Jonas Sandoy ingoramus
@R L T We do grow your food, export energy to you, and pay red state’s welfare….we could come out ahead if we left.
USA #1 in everything good and number 187 in everything bad. Ever travel?
Gee, America so bad? Funny how millions will leave there high speed trains to come here and be free. Education? Start with the teachers union and public schools who push student up and out.
74% black babies born out of wedlock. Where are the majority of homeless= Democrat lead cities and states.
Somehow you left out folks on food stamps 14 million down to 9 million and record employment and highest wages. Lower taxes, record retirement savings. End of long wars and troops brought home.
Culture and not government bring change.
Sounds to me you’re a kid living with your parents, and hates your life.
BS with your stock market with millions of workers 401k and IRA invested in record economy.
Who is moving to the countries you think are better?.
Actions speak louder than words.
Yeah, until it comes time to actually vote. 😏 Nothing new here.
Trust in white evANGELICALS(def not ego laden) to vote against their demigod?
Republicans can spin this any way they want but here’s the truth. America didn’t vote for Trump. The electoral college did.
@SUPERAFRASIABI89 because you have a low IQ
@Tremori wrong
@PersonWomenManCamera Tv boo boo, you lost. We voted for him and you lost.
@Mr. Pontifex I guess New York and California should just decide who’s president then?
Who’s care.
Don’t believe her! Key words…”before the election”
Oh I believe her. I believe she’s being misleading.
They Killed Ginsburg because she’s worth more to the democratic party dead than alive in order to motivate their base to defeat Trump and take the Senate. To appoint a progressive supreme court justice.

Spot on. There’s a whole 78 days (who’s counting?!?) between the Election and Inauguration.
like Collins she hopes that people will only remember what she says BEFORE the vote – not what she actually votes. Because the two things are opposites.
“I will wait for Trump to commit even more crimes befor I vote to impeach the President” Collins
Still can’t believe either of them. They said one thing during the Impeachment, and the voted against Impeaching Drumph, knowing full well that he was a very Corrupt TRAITOR and Everything else he and his Administration did
to us! And OUR COUNTRY not theirs. They are all AntiAmerican RUSSIAN AGENTS who gets paid by Putin while STEALING from us,! Get Out Of Our Country RUSSIAN AGENTS,!
Don’t be so sure. Murkowski is a genuine maverick. Remember, she voted against Kavenaugh. Collins expresses concern, but falls in line, but not the senator from Alaska.
Not true.
Murkowski’s actually pretty moderate & a person of her word unlike Collins.
they r proven spineless though and will buckle under gop pressure at the last minute no matter what they proclaim now
Her body isn’t even cold and the republicans are trying to snatch her seat for the Dump.💩
@Refresh2b violence thanks to the demokkkrats
@Craig Dunk butt hurt
@Faken Name And Trump is nothing more than an orange blob.
Stephen Martin Sorry if your bf was rough on you if your butt hurt 🤣🤣🤣
@toddburress68 peace we’re didn’t he sent some soldiers back .cause of Russia
she thinks it’s wrong, but she’ll do it, cuz she’s a weak politician🤣👍
She is the true defination of the words and acts of a puppet
Nothing like giving someone a chance guys. Hard snarky jeering cynicism shellacks the brain shut.
The ‘word’ of these two Republican women are not to be trusted. Don’t forget how they responded to the Orange Head’s impeachment! You have been warned!
@Elizabeth Pedano It is a big HOPE. 😉
.Mitch McConnel does not mind giving up even the majority in the senate to get that Scotus person in—it is well know that the Republicans try to affect change through legislation and the Democrats through court rulings and law suits—John Podesta that former Hillary Campaign manager now Biden’s campaign manager has said this multiple times. That is why all the attorneys volunteering for the DNC on the presidential race to be contested. But the Supreme court the final voice will be conservative controlled.

@Stephen Herndon Sadly, I believe your assessment is accurate!
“I don’t think science knows” -person who claimed there were airports in 1776.
.
Mueller Time You’re a dunce if you don’t know what he meant. Don’t forget he’s not a dirty old man who slurred his words like Mr. God blesh the unided shates. PRESIDENT OBAMA WENT TO ALL 50 STATES AND 7OF THEM TWICE. Now don’t hurt yourself trying to figure it out.🖕🏻💩😂
@Joanne M I like your optimism!
Please come up with some new material.
@William H Music 2020 Well he hasn’t killed 200,000 Americans for starters
@Nadia Silvershine LOL Someone has to!! Talk about a bunch of debbie downers in here!
They have the nerve to be Republicans, but not the Guts to be Women…
R L T No need to worry about me. Highly educated and pull in well over 6 figures and would never allow a loser into my life
@Veronica Valencia You are a horn tooter of the first magnitude. Stop…my sides are killing me…I needed a good laugh. How about some virtue signaling?….yeah that would be great. Thanks hon.
R L T Stating facts. No more, no less. Just proving your misogynistic view of women as incorrect.
@Veronica Valencia somebody is on their high horse.
Stephen Martin Yes of course, to a man who prefers women to be silent, not heard and obedient. Threatened much
She only opposes because she knows her other colleagues won’t. Shaky Susan too. It’s “pretend independence”.
Pretendependence
Dicky Penisburg clever!
Big talk. She and Concerned Collins will fold like a lawn chair.
…they go wherever the smelliest orange turds are!
“Won’t support a vote”…
Does not mean won’t vote if a vote comes up.
How about ;vote “no” whomever is endorsed by trumstain.
Won’t support means voting no.
Dillon Balmaseda
In THIS day and age of political verbal gymnastics, I wouldn’t be so sure “won’t support” can be translated to a “no vote”.
These senate republicans would have no problem saying “I did not support the issue, but I felt I needed to vote ‘yes’ …for the good of the people.” Or some other b.s. excuse.
@Vince F I agree, that is the verbal gymnastics I was referring to.
Doesn’t matter senate votes on it and trump will win another 4 years
Her “position of opposition” will evaporate as soon as the cameras are off her. She will line up to back the pumpkin like the rest of the swamp.
Maybe not. But your note was extremely funny! Time for that Moscow Mitch songwriter guy to do one on “backin the punkin.”
Didn’t she do this last time and went the other way. Never trust a Republican
I know from personal experience never ever trust a republican! Especially sociopaths like trump, mcconnell, and barr!
WHY trust a republican ??🐭
Exactly. We shouldn’t believe them until we see it. For me apart from getting dump and his squatter family out of WH, everything else is just noise. BYE DON 2020.
Murkowski voted against Kavenaugh, Collins caved.
Because last time she was in the opposition; so now she’s not in the opposition party she should support it. Defeat demokkkrats at every opportunity
I wouldn’t trust the “word” of any republican.
I feel the same about dems. Bunch of LOSERS! Guess what, they are about to LOSE another Supreme court seat!
@Herb Liptow How do you know they are republicans?
Herb Liptow that’s just plain stupid
@Herb Liptow low life
@Fred Neck because their knuckles aren’t dragging on the floor.
