It’s the Supreme Court, Not the Make-A-Wish Foundation

Democrats are demanding that President Trump and Senate Republicans honor the dying wish of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg — or else.

Ginsburg, days before her death Friday, reportedly shared her last wish: that her replacement to the highest court in the land be picked by a president other than Donald Trump.

“My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed,” the 87-year-old Ginsburg said in a statement dictated to her granddaughter, Clara Spera, according to NPR.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has already announced and promised a vote on whoever President Trump nominates.

“This is a man who does not care about a dying woman’s final wish,” fumed bartender-turned-congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

I don’t seem to recall hearing anything about the final wishes of Justice Antonin Scalia.

Leftists, meanwhile, are threatening violence if Senate Republicans confirm President Trump’s nominee.

As a lawyer, you would think that she would have put her last wishes in writing.

That would make no difference..your dying wish on naming the next Justice is not in the Constitution

My point is that the hearsay of her last wish is pure BS.  If she really expected us to believe it, she would have written it down.

Did one Democrat ever wonder what Scalia’s final wishes were?

The Dems should be throwing eggs and vegetables at pictures of Ginsburg rather than assaulting Trump.
If she would have retired when they wanted her to retire, they could have avoided all this.
But once again instead of blaming the people on their side who messed up, they're blaming Republicans.

My point exactly...Ruthie was very selfish and egotistical for not retiring and letting a Lib Prez pick her replacement...instead she leaves a *dying wish* to a Rebub Prez.. :silly:

Agreed.
Methinks we're being lied to.
Given the behavior of the democrat-communists, particularly recently, would that be "more in" or "more out" of their character...?
