Democrats warn GOP will regret Barrett confirmation
By Jordain Carney - 10/26/20 09:39 PM EDT

Democratic senators are warning that Republicans will regret confirming Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court as the Democrats face pressure from the left to nix the filibuster and expand the court if they win back the majority.

Democrats are facing calls from their base to enact rules changes and broad systemic reforms after President Trump, who lost the popular vote in 2016, was able to put three justices on the bench, in part because Republicans refused to give Merrick Garland, then-President Obama's final nominee, a hearing or a vote in 2016.

Several Democratic senators warned as part of the chamber’s debate over Barrett that Republicans have lost the right to kvetch if Democrats win back the majority and change the rules. Republicans nixed the filibuster in 2017 for Supreme Court nominees and reduced the debate time in 2019 for lower court and executive picks.

“I know that there's a lot of speculation ... about what Democrats will do if Democrats are given control of the Senate. Will Democrats go to new, extraordinary lengths to maximize their power given the extraordinary lengths Republicans have gone to maximize their power? This is not a conversation that is ripe enough yet but what do Republicans expect?” asked Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.).

Life is full of regrets.  But putting Barrett on the Supreme Court isn't one of them.

Anybody that isn't a Dim that follows the implied "Don't make the Dims mad because they will punish us when they take power back!" nonsense is a coward that DESERVES to be punished,and probably pays pros to punish him or her on weekends.

The solution to that problem is to TAKE COMMAND once elected,and serve in such a way that the American people benefit without losing any of their freedoms.

Where the alleged Republican Party has always failed in the past was to let the Dims tell them what they could do and what they couldn't do once they took office,thereby disappointing the very people that voted them into office.

I personally hope EVERY office-holding RINO in the country ends up having to collect beer cans along highways to feed themselves by the time Trump leaves office 4 years from now.

Bully, threaten, intimidate, lie, deceive, and represent foreigners and the ultra-rich's interests.  Who in their right minds votes for such trash ?

Democrats . . . slam 'manipulation' of Supreme Court

As a general rule, any time Democrats accuse you of wrongdoing, it is because they are already doing it themselves.

[HuskyPatriot]

Threats by Democrats always make me laugh.  Any vindictiveness blows up in their faces anyway, so fine, go at it!

TRUTH, something the Democommies abandoned so long ago, they just have no idea what it is, is the opposite of anything they say.

AMY COMEY BARRETT TO THE SUPREME COURT FINALLY SWINGS IT SLIGHTLY CONSERVATIVE. 

Roberts is a liberal Bush appointee who cannot be relied on for any vote.  He is a political hack and should be removed from the court.

[jmyrlefuller]

Revenge is not a good look, politically speaking.

Besides, you owe us 20 years for the Warren Court.

This liberal/conservative language isn't helpful. The court finally swung away from progressive activist and towards Constitutional original intent.

Of course it does.
