I think we need to get a SC vote on her opinion.

Interesting choice of words- " until a new president is INSTALLED." I caught that yestwrday too. Typical Authortarian Socialist (Stalinist) mind set. he American President is voted into office, not "instalked".

And that signifies what's wrong with politicians, the courts, and our country.
SCOTUS has 1 primary job, decide the constitutionality of the issue.
Nothing more. Most cases could be ciphered out by a high functioning middle schooler.
Does an abortion law violate a woman's rights. Nothing in there. Let the state decide.
Gun ownership? Pretty clear.
Property rights/eminent domain? Public good/public service.
Not, to take property to give to private business.
I need to get rich enough to find my cabin in the hills I have always dreamed of. It's getting harder and harder to live in this world.

For 40 plus yrs. Conservatives have been appointing scotus judges to try and counterbalance the Liberal Socialist Democrat appointed agenda driven judges.
Roberts is one major fail on " Our" side...
President Trump and Sen McConnell need to get this done and get a conservative female judge on the court. NOW.....
One of the reasons many of us voted for Pres Trump and will again is to appoint conservative constitutionalists judges to the scotus and as many other federal courts he can.
The liberal agenda needs to be killed........

She doesn,t really have a vote in the matter. Not her seat to fill dead or alive. She set her butt in it well beyond her ability to serve it for years and for no reason than she is a feminist activist and wanted the seat to filled by Hillary the first woman potus .

So..... she wants us to wait another 4 1/2 years until a new president is installed ?
Well... we have come to the point.... where... the parasites are killing the host. It's only a matter of time now.

It doesn't matter what she wants or wanted, she didn't have any say in the matter when she was alive and she doesn't now that she's dead. The constitution doesn't make mention of a justice picking their replacement, it's the President's job with the senate's advice and consent.
Her desires matter about as much as the fry cook at the local diner.

When a similar scenario occurred four years ago, following the death of Antonin Scalia, the Republican-controlled Senate blocked Barack Obama’s nomination of Merrick Garland to the Supreme Court. It was a controversial move, and Ginsburg had something to say about it: Ginsburg publicly called on the Senate to go through with the nomination.
“That’s their job,” she said in July 2016. “There’s nothing in the Constitution that says the President stops being President in his last year.”
“Eight is not a good number for a collegial body that sometimes disagrees,” Ginsburg said on the issue a few months later during an event at the Smithsonian Museum of American History in Washington.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who was with her, agreed. “I think we hope there will be nine as quickly as possible.”

How much class or consideration would the Democrats show us if the situation was reversed?

She was playing for the Hillary election, which seemed certain, and then they could have had the feel-good moment of the first female President appointing yet another female Socialist justice.
Too bad, Ruth, you are a day late and a dollar short, you bet on the worst Presidential candidate in history and she lost.

Yeah! Obama’s a constitutional scholar. (Could not type that with a straight face!) Not ruthies place to pronounce that IF she even did. The Garland nomination vs. this vacancy is apples/potatoes. Trump is not a lame duck like Barry was. As much as I want trump to have 4 more years, this is bigger than that. And is a hell of a legacy (ir)regardless of the election outcome. Certainly WAY bigger than the success of any senator running for re-election now.
