I'm surprised a thread hasn't been started. In the spirit of Minneapolis & St. Paul declaring today Ruth Bader Ginsburg Day, I'm curious on your thoughts about her, and what's ahead.
Regardless of party, unless you're a complete tyrant, it's sad to hear about prominent people passing away. I take no joy in it. I wish her and her loved ones my condolences.
Now onto the part that I find disturbing.
I saw on the morning news today that the MN Vikings rugby team lost to the Colts rugby team, but that wasn't what disturbed me. It was that this was RBG's last wish. WTF?
That's your last wish? This demonstrates IMO that she was not impartial but purely political. Most knew this already. If this was truly her last wish, well, it's sad. One would think while knocking on Heaven's door you would wish for something more related towards friends and family.
As far as replacing RBG, I do not see what the issue is. It is not the same as 2016. Obama/Democrats did not control the Senate. Also, regardless who would have won, it would have been a new administration. So comparing this to 2016 is a red hearing. I also remember "Hillary by a Landslide", so I assume they figured that the election was going their way. Now they're "implying" that Trump appointing a SCOTUS before an election is unconstitutional, and will impeach him??
Anyway, those are some of my thoughts.....
