Absolutely zero chance it doesn't happen,, even if its after the election After republicans blocking Obama appointing a judge in an election year...

Gemmill 44900 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 There's a chance he nominates someone and there's enough Republicans struggling in their senate races who'll vote against his nominee to try and signal that they're not Trump lackeys. It only needs 4 to flip. Romney is guaranteed so another 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongebob toonpants 3997 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 They've still got three months after the election to force it through no matter what happens. The Supreme Court will have a 6-3 crazy right wing majority for the next generation. The only possible chance the Dems have got is if Biden wins and they flip the senate and have the guts to increase the number of judges on the Supreme Court.

ewerk 30620 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 That would be a dangerous move. I think the SC court has sat as a nine for like 150 years. To try and pack the court in a year’s time would allow any ruling party to try the same going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 42459 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Pelosi is supposedly considering a second impeachment, with the resultant trial tying up the Senate so that they’re unable to have selection hearings for any Trump nominated candidate. It’s going to get messy as fuck now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly what I meant by the Republicans are playing a different game. If the roles were reversed the Republicans would do this in a heartbeat without a hint of regret. If the Dems don't sweep this election, give Puerto Rico and Washington statehood and pack the Supreme Court, then USA election going forward will be about as fair as Russia's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same in this country, the Tories are mirroring the GOP with the lies and lawlessness. You can't just keep complaining that it's not cricket.

Monkeys Fist 42459 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 $750 😂 Not a single one of his businesses isn’t running at a loss, supposedly. This’ll be what he eventually gets jailed for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44900 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 The bloke is a giant loser. I really hope he loses in November and does time for this stuff. It's totally inconceivable that he can run giant losses and still take out massive loans - there are lots of crimes in there and I hope him and his family get completely fucked by it.

Aye that's not gonna happen. And besides my understanding is that it's New York state that's looking into all of his business shenanigans and that can't be pardoned federally.
