When you look up the definition of legal giants who chased the world, her picture is right there. A huge but really not surprising loss.


RIP.

Can Trump get another justice in there before the election or before January if he loses?

He can and he will. Republicans are scumbags. The only hope now is that Biden wins, Dems take the senate, and the Supreme Court gets expanded.

Right, if they want to play hardball is there anything stopping them from expanding the bench to 13?

Rip RGB and the USA.

Moscow Mitch is truly one of the biggest deplorables.

Rest in power.

Imagine a Trump win in tandem with this immediate replacement appointment. This is devastating.
