Just say the word "abortion" to anyone on the left or right and they'll turn into a feral mob.

So appointing another conservative Justice will be sold as an attack on Roe v. Wade.

Even though it's unlikely the SC would even hear a challenge, let alone overturn their previous decision.

i think most people are pro-choice these days arent they?

And Trump is not going to push for anything regarding abortion because he doesn't fucking care about social issues.

the central position so to speak

Yeah. Abortion is a dead issue. All the religious right that cared about it died of old age.

Trump supporters don't give a crap about abortion. They care about borders, law and order, and the economy.

But man, the left go absolutely rabid if you ever mention Roe v. Wade so that'll be how the democrats frame this.

Thanks to @Deleted User for the invite

Np @kekistansupreme

:)

So what's everyones opinion on Justice Kennedy leaving?

maybe he's j/k

Epic troll if true

I hope not. Ginsberg won't be long to follow

Honestly everyone should have been expecting at least one additional SC nomination for Trump.

altho I guess if he retires he will not be j/k anymore

just k

Yeahhhhhh

This really shouldn't have come as a shock. Ginsberg might simply die of old age at any time.

👌

(holy crap Tim's here)

And what's likely to happen is that Trump nominates Diane Sykes and she gets confirmed with little rancor.

great rant Tim!

I haven't looked at the list, but who is Sykes? Someone I should know from something else?

think he'll pick judge judy

Actually Trump might be well advised to nominate someone who gets rejected outright by both democrats and republicans before nominating Sykes.

Yeah. Clint Eastwood 😂

Then sykes

Make the democrats and his enemies on the republican side of the senate feel like they had a victory and that Sykes is a concession to them.

Yeah

Ivanka for justice 😂

(just for the rejection)

Diane Sykes is a veteran federal judge who struck down a law banning firing ranges in Chicago, challenged the employer mandate for birth control in Obamacare, and struck down a ruling that blocked police bodycams.

Her husband is a radio host who is anti-Trump.

OH THAT ONE, I KNEW SHE WAS FAMILIAR

She's also from Wisconsin, which was vital for Trump in the election.

And unless the democrats want to filibuster the appointment of another woman to the supreme court, the first time there would have been 4 women on the SC ever as far as I know, she'll win her confirmation.

Nice
