not just rude, but flat out going against RBG's dying wish to not be replaced until after the inauguration. what happened to the party of morals? there is no limit to the number of SC seats, and upping it to 13 might need to happen. if trump puts forward a nominee like Merrick Garland, maybe the dems wouldn't push to pack the court. if it is a hard core conservative, for sure they will.
this will also have senate election ramifications. graham was recorded on video saying he would not vote for a SC justice in 2020 and is in a deadheat for his race. if he votes, his seat is lost.
With all due respect to Mrs. Ginsburg, her wishes regarding when and who fills her seat are irrelevant. The Supreme Court works for Americans. It wasn't
her seat, she did not own it, we paid her salary nor does
she extend any authority after her death to control who gets it. The Supreme Court Judges work for the
legal citizens of the
USA. It's our court and there's no legal problems with the seat being filled next week. If the
Liberals can try to impeach the President of the USA on an election year then I don't see any problems with something not as near as important like
appointing a Super Court Justice to take place in the same year.
You also can't tell how the future will play out so possibly
Mr. Graham might not lose his seat and even if he does he would have gone out with a bang. I'd imagine in a perfect world elected officials would put the people of the USA before their own personal wants. Time will tell. I just hope we get another Conservative in the court as the
legal baby killing, perverted sickness that are gender based rulings and the
infringement of our 1st and 2nd Amendment rights all
needs to stop and be reversed.

Quoted from callmebob:
So why does Trump put in a donater of his to run the USPS who removes mail sorting machines and makes mail boxes disappear? That´s not trying to fix an election? I have a single finger salute to you.
The
USPS has been in a downward spiral for some time and have removed most of their off site boxes long before Trump took office. I acknowledge
there's politics being played out, but the entire point is with mail in ballots there's too many uncertainties and chances for things to go wrong (fraud).
No one should have a problem going to the polls and all USA citizens should have to provide proof they are a citizen before being allowed to register to vote. The purpose of absentee ballots was for people that were serving over seas or were out of the country when voting time comes around to still have their votes counter. They
weren't created to allow anyone who wants to vote to do so without having to prove who they are. So even if Trump is trying to eliminate mail in voting for normal citizens there's no problem with that as we
shouldn't be allowing it in the first place. Eliminating mail in voting also wouldn't effect the ability for people to go get an ID, register to vote and show up at the polls.
