2020 just keeps screwing with us. Now McConnell will push through a nominee before the election. This is the same McConnell that would not hold hearings in 2016 for an Obama nominee because of impending election.
I hope Trump nominates Cotton and pisses off every independent.

@jim44444 It’s a lifetime appointment. And Cotton is a corrupt scumbag.

@bijouxbroussard Congress can impeach him later. If Trump pisses off the independents he will lose the election.

@Driver2 I’m feeling exactly as warm and friendly towards McConnell as certain Republicans felt towards RBG. Check out the trash on that side of the street before coming after me.

@FrosinStjarna Are you really that thick ? Or do you just choose to ignore all the right-winged celebrations around the passing of Justice Ginsburg ?

@FrosinStjarna Is there a way to get McConnell to stop that doesn’t involve him being dead? If so - great. I’m all ears.
You’re right — I don’t necessarily want him dead (although he is old.) I just want him rendered unable to do any more damage.

@bijouxbroussard Exactly.

@FrosinStjarna I’m not allowed to be upset and angry that some people are celebrating the death of somebody I admired?
When McCain died, I (and most people who agree with me) did not celebrate. I disagreed with almost all his opinions, but I didn’t rejoice at his death. In fact, I expressed sorrow for his family.
When Trump dies (and he will eventually; nobody is immortal), I’m already planning my behavior around that event: I will not say one word, just remain silent. He has kids, and I know what it’s like to lose a parent.
But I wish I hadn’t gone on any social media tonight; I’m seeing truly repellant remarks from the right. They obviously don’t care that RBG’s family is sad tonight.

@FrosinStjarna Well, you just found out I’m human after all. Sorry I fell off the pedestal.
