Yeah, well half the folks who started out didn't make it, and it's possible not everyone makes it this time, either.

Hyperbole be damned, this just became the most important election in our lifetimes.
If I'm Chuck Schumer I tell McConell tonight, “If you fill that seat, prior to the election or in a lame duck session after a Trump loss, we'll have 3 new Justices and 4 new states by Easter."

Dark day for the country. And fuck any of those "Both parties are just the same" shitheads!! Let's see if that's true now. And a double fuck you to pancreatic cancer. It took my only brother away 12 days after he was diagnosed with it. If this doesn't bring EVERYONE to the polls, I don't know what will.
Trump doesn't care and if he's willing to do this much dirt so openly in his current position can you imagine the damage he can do on a Supreme Court with a 6-3 conservative advantage.
That's really the only solution. Nominate more justices.
You know what....folks said there was no way this shit could happen....
Guess what happened this evening.......

I could still see him retiring and being replaced even if Trump loses.Yep. And all this for the next 30 - 40 years. I d bet money if Trump gets in that Thomas' 72 year old ass retires and Trump replaces him with some 40 something....
Face it...we been fucked... Mcconnell has been installing lifetime judge appointments at a record pace on lower courts. At least 40+ more years of racist and sexist white men rule. This will just be the cherry on top.
Are you going to vote?
The scary thing is if Trump does lose and if the Democrats were to take over the Senate the Republicans would have even more incentive and nothing to lose in the 2 and a half months they have left in office
of course, I meant to add that in the post
but I'm not ringing the doomsday bell no matter what happens in Nov
The conservatives want a young judge on the bench for the next 40-50 years.
She lasted as long as she could. Rip

Fortunately, if 45 loses and the senate goes blue alot can be done to fix that scorched earth tactic.
I looked at the list of senators trying to find four that might do the right thing.
This'll probably end up like the Kavanagh confirmation, where they pretend to give a shit, and then vote him in anyway.
Imma need Black Jesus and his daddy to chill out. They going way too hard in 2020.

Good point. I hope they try. Then the Dems can expand the court and like someone said extend statehood to D.C., Puerto Rico, American Bahamas, America Somoa, and Guam. 11 justices and 5 new states. Do it with no compromise.
I'm afraid thy are too dumb to understand the ramifications of something like this. Most of these non-voting mfs don't really understand the political profess and nuances that goes along with it.
yeah..no fucking around.
because if Mitch forces this through, they'll definitely lose the senate
and how does this piece of shit keep getting a pass??! I can't say Hillary would have pulled out a victory, considering how poorly run her campaign was, but given the sketchy circumstances surrounding the 2016 election, his bitchass grandstanding caused a seismic shift in that election!
