Rushing into confirming a new justice is going to alienate some people who were maybe on the fence considering Mitch the Turtle's refusal to fill Scalia's seat in 2016.
But jumping into filling the seat with a Trumpian might just have the Dems adding to the number of justice seats should the Dems take over the house/senate/and presidency thereby being able to load up on their choices.
Either way Mitch the Bitch needs to get gone. I dislike him as much as I dislike Trump.
I do find it interesting that Trump immediately ordered flags lowered and has mostly been respectful. He knows the handling of the death of RGB has the potential to be a minefield or an opportunity to do something decent for a change thereby swaying the undecided and those with short memories over to his side.
I can bet that those in the WH for once, put their foot down, and told him attacking her like McCain would be suicide. But outside RBG, look at how many times he has attacked anyone who said boo to him, even in his own ranks, only to fake empathy for a brief moment.
I am not impressed for one second that he said a kind word about her. His actions for years the way he talks about women has been vile, much less any other group apposing him.
He's going to go right back to attacking women who question him. RBG had a duty not to comment, because of her position, but I am damned sure if she had not ben a SCOTUS, she would have at a minimum been a lawyer for women's rights groups.
