WHAT IF in the event Joe Biden gets another SCOTUS pick?????

[ProudMNDemocrat]

NOTE: I am only assuming here that Justice Clarence Thomas resigns or announces his retirement due to HEALTH reasons(not the corruption his wife is involved with), how will Republicans react?

1. Will they protest with the retort that "Pres. Biden already had a pick that we fought tooth and nail over to oppose."

2. "This is a Mid Term election year, let the people decide who gets control of the US Senate, and then we can prevent him from getting another SCOTUS pick until 2025?"

Seeing how the Republicans behave, either one will be their talking point. A repeat of 2016.

What say you?

1. This hearing was just practice, sharpening their knives for the next one. They will fight dirty

2. I say we will keep the Senate,

and I don't care what the GQP talking points are.

[Bettie]

3. 3. They will demand that Biden "keep the balance of the court"

by appointing a right wing ideologue to replace Thomas.

Not saying they'll get that, but they will likely demand it.

4. The 2 Ds would become zillionaires . ...

[Midnight Writer]

12. Right. Manchin has already signaled he is not on board with "changing the balance".

I guess to him, elections don't have consequences.

5. This is absolutely NOTHING to consider. What do you think will happen? Who will take to the podium

to pound it with outrage? Why would Thomas resign? If he and she are right in their beliefs why?
Who is going to make him?
His health is one thing, but his will is another.

6. Thomas

The difference from the last time is that Mitch does not control the Senate agenda. If all 50 democrats stick together, and with Kamala breaking a tie, there is nothing republicans can do to prevent another Justice from being confirmed.

7. It should not be a life time appointment.

[Chainfire]

8. The Republicans in the Senate will determine that it is too late in Biden's Presidency

for him to choose. It should be left to the next president.

9. Nominate Obama to the USSC...

...Ballgame.

[Bayard]

10. Nominate Michelle Childs

And dare Lindsay Graham to vote against her.

We can only hope Clarence Thomas goes away.

11. Irrelevant what the enemy spews out.

We just have to keep SineManchin in line.
