We also recall the words of Obama and Chuck Schumer in a similar situation:.@GOP We were put in this position of power and importance to make decisions for the people who so proudly elected us, the most important of which has long been considered to be the selection of United States Supreme Court Justices. We have this obligation, without delay!

Circumstances were different in 2016 as Democrats controlled the White House and Republicans the Senate. This time around there is no barrier to a confirmation unless it comes from RINO Republicans. Meanwhile, threats of violence have already begun from Democrats who have no respect for democracy or peace. Protesters immediately headed to Mitch McConnell's house in Kentucky. Expect to see that same level of intimidation, harrassment and threat we saw during the Kavanaugh hearings. More troublesome new threats of riots. This coming from a former CNN anchor: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/09/begins-angry-violent-democrats-post-mitch-mcconnells-home-address-online-will-hold/ Like Obama, Trump has the duty under the Constitution to appoint a successor. The Senate has the power to confirm. I expect both to do their job!Attn GOP: Senate has confirmed 17 #SCOTUS justices in presidential election years. #DoYourJob pic.twitter.com/Mdm0P5SRC4
