The Top Contender for RBG’s Seat Has a Fundamentally Cruel Vision of the Law Here’s what we can expect if Trump fills the late justice’s seat. "Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death presents Donald Trump with an opportunity to transform the United States far beyond most Americans’ comprehension. Replacing the justice with a conservative would mark the single most consequential act of his presidency. It would doom policies and precedents that have come to form a cornerstone of American law. It’s not hard to foresee what the court could accomplish if Justice Brett Kavanaugh becomes the swing vote. The consensus among legal and political analysis is that Judge Amy Coney Barrett, whom Trump placed on a federal appeals court in 2017, is the leading candidate to fill Ginsburg’s seat. Barrett gained fame during her confirmation hearing after Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein made inappropriate comments about the judge’s devout Catholic faith. She is a hardcore conservative, but that description doesn’t quite capture how radically her jurisprudence differs from Ginsburg’s. The late justice viewed the Bill of Rights and civil rights acts as generous guarantees of human dignity that must be read expansively to achieve their purpose. By contrast, Barrett’s view of the law is fundamentally cruel. During her three years on the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals, Barrett has either written or joined a remarkable number of opinions that harm unpopular and powerless individuals who rely on the judiciary to safeguard their rights..." |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 45385951 United States 09/21/2020 04:10 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | she won't be confirmed. choose her if you want to fail and have to start over. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 45385951 1. neither jesus, nor his pope will determine whether you do you job. 2. the adopted children thing is just weird. Pick a real person. a person that strongly identifies as a practicing catholic being nominated to the Supreme Court is problematic. her haitian voodoo babies...well that ain't happening. |

Oof that's going to hurt during the hearings. |

If its true she would always side with the Pope's views, then she is not a viable candidate. That fucking guy is about as liberal as they come. I definitely wouldn't let him, or any liberal around my kids. I'd go with the Cuban, they hate communism and Trump gets racial points for not picking an evil white person. Actually, I'd go with the most squeaky clean constitutionals I could find regardless of race or gender. Its crazy we are picking a SCOTUS judge based on gender qualifications. Any alpha male type now is doomed, they all did something questionable back in the ole college days.... A nerdy broad who made it to any judge position probably didn't get too crazy. |
