NPR reports that liberal justice Ruth Ginsburg has died. Too bad for liberals that she did not get her dying wish. The NPR article says:
"Just days before her death, as her strength waned, Ginsburg dictated this statement to her granddaughter Clara Spera: "My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed."She knew what was to come. Ginsburg's death will have profound consequences for the court and the country. Inside the court, not only is the leader of the liberal wing gone, but with the court about to open a new term, the chief justice no longer holds the controlling vote in closely contested cases."
Well this is why G_d doesn't let us live forever. If we did, elite would go to the top, stay there forever, and nothing would ever change. Now that Ginsburg is gone Trump has 3 1/2 months to ram a new SCOTUS justice in there, and don't you know his team has been working on it hoping Ginsburg's time would run out before Trump's did.
Well, it will be interesting to see how the dems try to stall the selection of a new justice. They really don't have the power to stop him. From the web: "The President nominates someone for a vacancy on the Court and the Senate votes to confirm the nominee, which requires a simple majority." With a GOP majority senate, the dems will have to have fist fights on the congressional floor, vomit on the podium, take a shit on the microphone, whatever crazy antic they can do because that is what it is going to take to keep Trump from installing a new conservative in SCOTUS.
Chop, chop, chop, dear liberals. You're going down.
