President Trump on Monday claimed he would win the presidential election if House Speaker Nancy Pelosi actually attempted to use impeachment as an option to block his eventual Supreme Court nominee from being confirmed to the seat vacated by the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Game is tied. It's fourth down, ball is on the Republican's own 1 yard line. Democrats throw a challenge flag, intending to dispute the rule that allows teams to go for it on fourth down. They argue that the the rule should not apply here because if the Republicans go for it and win, they would lose the game.

Nominating someone to the Supreme Court is now High Crime and Misdemeanor and an impeachable offense.

When is the media going to come out with the idea that the House cannot impeach anyone this close to an election? They seem to think that other functions of the government should stop now.

The House has zero jurisdiction over the Senate.

I believe that McConnell could simply decline to hold a trial in the Senate at this time.

The mainstream media is uneducated in this area. They preach their own ideas and agenda getting people to think what they say is the gospel truth.

Nominate away, President Trump. Let them pour more gasoline on themselves.

Better to think of Roberts and Kagan and maybe even Breyer as moderates and Sotomayor as the out and out liberal remaining in the Court.

The Left is strutting around as always, totally confident that the Right is gentlemanly and reasonable-—meaning impotent.
They will soon embark on a different style of violence than simply burning the buildings in Portland. Like a bomb in a power station in cold weather to knock out heat and food refrigeration for a small city. Or mob shutting down freeways and highways and surrounding families’ cars and SUVs to threaten or actually attack them as they did with the 2 deputies sitting in a patrol car? Or taking children hostage with BLM demands. Retaliation from your anger at that? They know nothing ever happens to the BLM types-—out by Noon from being gently arrested and questioned. DAs on their side from Soros campaign money.

Which would you rather fight hand to hand, the Amish (not the FR overused joke ones-—the real ones) or the well armed and violent “teens” in a ghetto neighborhood the police consider too dangerous a “no-go” zone for them to enter?

The GOP is the Amish of politics.

I actually like how Elena Kagan has ruled on several things.

The Dems are grasping at straws. They are screwed on this one and they know it, so it is all about spreading a false narrative and hoping that it sticks. They are lying when they try to compare the situation after they murdered Scalia and thought they would be able to cajole the Republican controlled Senate into confirming a liberal Obama nomination as a replacement. Silly Democrats its not going to work and you will get the SC Justice you deserve.

john roberts has to be in the conservative lineup, because he said there were no obama judges or trump judges, so he would have no problem with a nomination at this time.

There was some talk around impeachment hoax 1.0 that a POTUS under impeachment charge could not nominate someone to SCOTUS. Dems have been talking about this for a while. I don’t recall all the details.

Not sure what game you are watching but;

The Republicans lead by 11 points in the 4th quarter with 45 seconds left on the clock. Coach Pelosi just threw a challenge flag that says there needs to be a 5 th quarter with no time limit until the Dems score enough points to beat the Republicans. Unfortuniately Nancy is on the AFL (ANTIFA Felon League) and this is a NFC game and she has no say!

Too bad America no longer watches football and she will be able to get away with it.
