    McConnell this AM refused to say under repeated questioning if he would stick to the standard he set with Merrick Garland and NOT fill any SCOTUS vacancy in 2020. “The answer to your question is we will see if there’s a vacancy in 2020,” repeating on Fox what he said Saturday

        If America shows up in November, that won’t be @senatemajldr’s call. He’ll be whining from the sidelines under his new Twitter handle of @TreasonTurtle while the Democrat Senate Majority Leader decides what to do.

        If they are in control, 100%. If they are not, he'll have no say in the matter anyway. He's the least trustworthy politician in America... well ... at least he's tied for that honor.

        Why do you keep asking irrational men in power rational questions? You expecting a conversion experience?

        It's accountability. I fully expect McConnell to be a hypocrite, but that doesn't mean that you stop holding him accountable for his hypocrisy

        If there is a vacancy in 2020 and McConnell is still the Senate Majority leader, he will fill a SCOTUS vacancy. If Democrats don't want this to happen, THEY MUST VOTE.

        We shall see, republicans are playing hardball, just look at the results with Garland, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh. The Democratic Party has thirty days to create a sense of urgency

        The Democrats deserve no quarter. After what they've done, there is no deference, no courtesy, no reasoning with them. Defeat them. PERIOD. THAT'S what he's telling you. IT'S OVER.

        The Biden rule went into effect in 1992 when Bush was President and Dems controlled the Senate. The answer is the party that controls the Senate decides. If Democrats want to decide that, they'll have to win the Senate in November. Highly unlikely.

        Oh don’t worry, America will show up. Republican voters are already more likely than democrat to vote in mid-term elections...after the hysteria of the Kavanaugh’s hearings don’t think we will just forget to vote.

        Hopefully, we will get another conservative justice appointed to SCOTUS before 2020, if not I’m sure we will get 1 during Pres.Trump’s 2nd term,
