Seth Abramson re SCOTUS: "It's very simple."




It's very simple: Trump doesn't get another Supreme Court pick until the investigation of his alleged treachery against the U.S. is complete.

No man suspected of conspiring with America's enemies should be given a second stolen SCOTUS seat until he's been exonerated.

Full stop.

I said a week ago Americans can peacefully/lawfully occupy DC and demand new elections in light of a tampered-with election or America can circle the drain. How does that advice look now—as Trump's about to get a second stolen SCOTUS seat and pack the court for a half-century?

If Trump gives a name, Senate will confirm. It’s that simple. I’m sure Trump and McConnell already know who the pick is as they’ve been pressuring Kennedy to resign.

And Senate will never convict in impeachment unless Treason is the charge and its unlikely Mueller will have that charge for Trump.

That's exactly what every Senator should say loudly, publicly, and often between now and confirmation time, both outside and inside the Capitol.

supercede that cause he can. He does not care.

GOPers do not care.

But I believe he is right.

This might not be the best solution but It is evident that if there is a solution, it’s going to have to come from outside the political establishment.

12. If it is proven that Trump was in on a conspiracy, Gorsuch should go also.

And the rulings that he has sat on should be overturned.

I agree, why should djt pick another supreme court pick. Djt is a criminal himself, why doesn't someone stop him? I think it would be wrong for him to even think about picking another one. How can he be stopped? He has such a huge ego, he will just bulldoze right over every one!!

Well that's an action in futility. Doesn't mean it shouldn't be tried. But let's get real. Trump will own all 3 branches of govt soon. Unless....unless....
