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 nowas Trump's about to get a second stolen SCOTUS seat and pack the court for a half-century?

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

GOPers do not care.
But I believe he is right.

(1,402 posts)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!!
