SCOTUS Thread (News and Discussion) II: Rape Isn't On My Calendar

[Vaspinne]

What's to stop them doing it during lame duck session?

Surely they'd have some integrity and not do something so incredibly hypocriti...

So this is how Civil War II starts I guess.

I think McConnell knows he doesn't have 50 votes but wants to drag this out for the spotlight and beat that identity politics drum to help Trump. I don't think he has any intention of actually putting a vote together before the election.

Nothing, but the country will literally burn to the ground. Literally. Ferguson and Minneapolis would pale in comparison.

If they lost the presidency or the senate? It would be carnage.

You guys have more faith than me.

The republicans are willing to do pretty much anything to get what they want, and they've been strategizing about this exact moment for months.

What do they want? Control of the senate, a dream wedge issue for the election, and a chance to reelect Trump....or a SCOTUS seat. Because if they ram through a nominee before the election, Republicans are going to get slaughtered.

You just need 50+1 willing senators and a willing president. More likely than actually impeaching justices.

Now if the question is "Will Joe Biden do this" then ahahahahahaha fuck I don't know probably not.

Wouldnt that require a constitutional amendment so no?

[Zealot]

There are more years between the last time the court was expanded and now then there are between the expansion and the founding of the country

Nope. Nothing in the constitution says how many scotus justices we need. Just it has to exist.
