    Yes, I bet he dies someday. That karma is some tough character sometimes.

    The judiciary has been politicized for decades. Please catch up.

    ~ I suppose if that is your beliefs you should be very careful what you do, say and think in this life.

    I can accuse you of being a murderer. Doesn't mean that you actually are a murderer. Accusations don't mean squat. Proof is what matters and no one has proven that he has committed any crimes. And nothing is stopping the NY AG from indicting Trump. In case you didn't know it, States can still charge a President for violating State Crimes. Doesn't matter if they're in office or not.

    In either case nothing you said here supports your statement of "playing nice". In fact it just shows the opposite.

    This is my thought. Even if there's some requirement that they try the case first, give the House impeachment advisors 5 minutes to present there case, and then vote it down. They don't owe the House's game-playing impeachment any serious consideration.

    Dems threaten that if Trump nominates/seats someone, they will X Y Z.
    They will X Y Z anyway.
    Thus, there's no reason to not do it.

    Did you forget that for recess appointments to be an option, Congress has to be in recess? They weren't in recess on January 20, 2017. This wasn't an option for Obama.

    You don't seem to understand how parliamentary procedure works. Quit making up nonsense.

    Please tell the forum your credentials when it comes to knowing what exactly God will see to. I personally get wary of anyone who claims to know God's motivations.

    Hell, the Nazi's wore belt-buckles inscribed with "God is with us," on 'em. I'd say almost anyone claiming to know what exactly God will do regarding some specific person - well, let's be kind and call them "misguided". I guess what I'm trying to say is that there's a reason preachers usually quote passages from the Bible as opposed to telling the flock exactly what God will do - unless the Scripture is God Himself saying "This is what I will do."

    Maybe you should just chill out and have a cheeseburger.

    If you think you are pissed now, keep in mind that you have a 66 year old obese Latina with type 1 diabetes on the bench. A disease that usually cuts women’s lives short by 10-15 years with her ethnicity averaging a life expectancy of 80 years.
    Do the math.

    Because President Obama was a weak sauce President that could have nominated in 2016 had he the testicular fortitude to do so, while President Trump is a strong leader in 2020 that obviously is not as vain about his image in the history books as Obama is.

    It is obvious you neither know how judges are appointed, how recess appointments work, nor what playing nice entails.

    Trump will the first President in US history to be impeached twice. Amazing. He should wear it like the Nobel Peace prize.

    One poster keeps talking about karma...and I think that poster is on to something....

    the left created the Biden Rule in 92 announcing their clear intent that a SCOTUS justice would not be considered in an election year.
    they then in an unprecedented move,
    lock nearly all of Bush's nominees...in a plan organized matter...didn't matter who the person was. https://www.nytimes.com/2001/05/01/us/washington-talk-democrats-readying-for-judicial-fight.html
    The go Nuclear when they have the power
    they then back out of the Biden Rule...
    they go just ugly and push lies against Kavenaugh...to the point they lose RGB

    and folks that is why we are where we are now..

    So you agree that it is perfectly legitimate for Pelosi to do anything she can to block a pick by trump, right? Including using impeachment proceedings?

    If democrats can impeach a president during an election year, then that president can nominate a judge in an election year.

    The Snuggleupagainst is feeding Pelosi the narrative, and she's simply acknowledging it. Likely they collaborated on the questions before the interview. Notice also that the left now believe that they get to abuse their power, and are willing to lash out with it to contravene the will of the people. Pelosi has decided that even though she could never "win" the presidential election that she certainly wants everyone to cower before her as she ascends using unconstitutional measures to try to sit in the white house herself.
