Topic | Trump says Supreme Court seat needs to be filled so they can decide the election |
FreezerDoor 09/23/20 7:34:44 PM #1 | https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2020/09/23/trump-need-fill-supreme-court-seat-quickly-because-election/3501368001/ President Donald Trump said Wednesday he wants a nine-member Supreme Court as soon as possible in case the justices have to decide cases challenging the results of his own presidential election. "I think this will end up in the Supreme Court, and I think it's very important that we have nine Justices," Trump told reporters after discussing election issues with a group of Republican state attorneys general. Having a ninth justice avoids the prospect of a tie vote in an election case, Trump said: I think having a 4-4 situation is not a good situation." Political opponents said Trump wants an ally on the Supreme Court to increase the chances that any disputes would be decided in his favor. "Donald Trump knows the only way he remains president is by stealing the election," tweeted The Lincoln Project, an organization that produces anti-Trump commercials. Other legal analysts said the process should not be rushed so close to a tense and tight election. "Supreme Court justices serve for life and make decisions that impact every American," said a statement from the League of Women Voters. "They require a thorough vetting process that is transparent to the American people. Such a process would be undermined if rushed through."

FreezerDoor 09/23/20 1:21:21 AM #1 | https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/22/politics/mitch-mcconnell-senate-votes-scotus/index.html We won't even know who President Donald Trump's pick to replace the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court will be until late this week, but we know now for (almost) certain that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) has the votes to confirm the pick to the court. The last 72 hours have made that much clear. On Tuesday morning, Utah Sen. Mitt Romney announced that he supports a vote on Trump's nominee. "I intend to follow the Constitution and precedent in considering the President's nominee," he said in a statement. "If the nominee reaches the Senate floor, I intend to vote based upon their qualifications." Romney's decision comes two days after retiring Tennessee Sen. Lamar Alexander announced that he supported a vote on Trump's eventual nominee before the election, eliminating perhaps the single most likely GOPer to join Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine in opposition to confirming a Supreme Court justice this close to a presidential election. Then, on Monday, Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner, who is an underdog for a second term this November, said that he too backed a vote before the election. As did Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa who had, in the past, expressed significant reservations about trying to confirm a justice in the waning days of an election. And with those critical dominoes, any experienced vote-counter can see the writing on the wall: This nomination is going to go through -- and McConnell is going to win. Damn. A non-Fox News source is saying Mitch has the votes and he is gonna win. --- Edmonton Oilers winning a draft is like giving a homeless person money but knowing they are going to spend it on drugs and alcohol- Xunolix |

While technically true, Romney is citing "precedent" as a reason why its fine for him to do this, which is a lie, since the precedent would be the one set in 2015 when the republicans refused to allow Obama to name a new judge because it was his final year in office. I randomly tuned into those Sunday morning political shows. And Ted Cruz said seats were filled iirc 15 out of something like 19 times in election years. It had to have been at least 80% of time.

Kruger Products CEO Dino Bianco said demand for paper towels has soared as people stay at home and clean more frequently. "Toilet paper was the highlight of the COVID stay-at-home mandates but now we're seeing the big use of paper towels," he said in an interview. "COVID doesn't make you go to the bathroom more, but it does make you clean more." Bianco said the industry's paper towel inventory is "very tight" across North America, despite efforts to build up supply. "Paper towel is the big watch out for us," he added.
