Should President Donald Trump nominate a candidate for the Supreme Court succeeding Ruth Bader Ginsburg who died late last week?

And, should the Senate approve the nomination?

The answer to both questions is an unqualified yes. Why, despite the left’s furious protests to the con

Why, despite the left’s furious protests to the contrary?

Easy.

Its constitutional.

The left has been looking for an issue to oppose President Trump. Try this one. Nothing else seems to stick.

Ginsburg’s death reportedly has ramped up giving to the Blue state campaign funds to be used to defeat not only President Trump but also to gain control of both the House and Senate.

How does a federal government headed by Kamala Harris, Charles Schumer and Nancy Pelosi sound to you.

Personally, that thought gives me the nervous tremors – a recipe for a full-blown Socialist State of America. It certainly won’t be united.

The left has worked for years to split the United States wide open and replace its historic constitutional system and it almost achieved its goal.

Failure of the president and the Senate to nominate and seat a conservative to the Supreme Court would demoralize the silent majority, which has remained largely silent during an eight-year effort by Barack Obama and pals to weaken and destroy the U.S. from within. Columnist Beth Bauman cited an interesting take in Mother Jones (far left mag) on Ginsburg’s refusal to retire during the Obama years so that Obama could appoint a lefty to replace her:

“Watch Ginsburg in RBG, the documentary, and it’s hard to be anything but charmed. She’s cute, she’s brilliant, she’s cool. Even the late liberal scourge Justice Antonin Scalia adored her. But how cute will we find Ginsburg if she becomes incapacitated and Trump replaces her with someone like 46-year-old social conservative Amy Coney Barrett, who believes life begins at conception and doesn’t really believe the Supreme Court must uphold precedent like Roe v Wade? A 6-3 conservative majority would push the court yet further to the right and eliminate any possibility that a sitting conservative such as Chief Justice John Roberts might serve as a moderating force and occasionally join with the liberal bloc to preserve critical rights and precedent.”

The idea of creating a true constitutional majority on the court is breath-taking – the first in this writer’s lifetime.

In our opinion, Roberts is a sitting disappointment, hopping over to the left too often.

Bauman says:

This is a huge opportunity for Republicans to appoint a conservative justice. And while Ginsburg was clear her last wishes were for the next president to decide who replaces her, it was never her decision to make. It was the Constitution’s. And the Constitution gives that power and authority to the president to nominate and the Senate to confirm. At the end of the day this isn’t about her personal feelings and grievances. It’s bigger than her. She made the choice for the nation when she refused to resign.”

We considered Ginsburg a special person. Antonin Scalia liked her. That says a lot.

Her last decision proves it. She may have even thought it was mandatory for her to make that decision to preserve a free America.

Whether or not the Republican-majority Senate shows enough guts to approve the president’s appointment to the Supreme Court, the situation creates an even more explosive Nov. 3 election.

Much hangs in the balance.

If the left is successful in taking over complete power in the election, it’s a sure bet that D.C. and Puerto Rico will become states, providing the Senate with four more reliable Democrat votes.

The Supreme court will be packed with enough lefties so that whatever decision the left needs it will get.

Conservatives (us commoners) will be disenfranchised forever. It would be foolish to say, if the Democrats take over,

It would be foolish to say, if the Democrats take over, we will leave the country (like so many lefties promised to do when Trump was elected, but didn’t).

The plain truth is there’s no other place to go. America is the last bastion of freedom in the world.

America is the last bastion of freedom in the world.

The only way to preserve a free America is to get out in large enough numbers Nov. 3 to re-elect President Trump in a landslide and keep the Senate. Also, it would help to gain a majority in the House – so that we won’t have to watch “Giggles” Pelosi prance around in front of TV cameras babbling nonsense during the foreseeable future.

A Senate led by Schumer, who has yet to learn how to wear glasses, is too disgusting to think about.
