That was an extremely presidential reaction honestly.
Yeah he's a shitposter on Twitter but when it comes down to being POTUS he rises to the occasion.

This mindset is so puzzling to me. Are the final 4 months of a term supposed to not count? Why be so weak and refuse to do your job?
The person to blame here is RBG for not resigning when she's been dying for 2 years. But, I suppose that doesn't matter when the Presidential nominee she's cheering for is already clearly dying himself.

I would have lost it if it was playing "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me". "Tiny Dancer" seems appropriate.

The left thinking they're in any way the arbiters of morality is just so revolting.
This is how the Left is reacting, in a nutshell
It really is a mental illness.

Michigan Court of Claims judge decrees that the state must accept late-arriving mail-in ballots for fourteen days after the election. The case was brought by the Michigan Alliance for Retired Americans against Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson.
Judge Cynthia Stephens also ruled "that absentee voters can get help from any person they choose in returning their ballot in the final days before the Nov. 3 election.
Current election law requires an absentee ballot to be returned by the voter, an immediate family member or someone residing in the voter’s household. The voter can also get help from a local government clerk, but that option expires at 5 p.m. on the Friday prior to the Tuesday election.
...
Her ruling allows for a voter to choose anyone they want to return their ballot, but only if it’s between 5 p.m. Friday before election day and 8 p.m. on election day."
Judge Stephens denied the Alliance's request to eliminate the requirement for voters to supply their own postage, on the grounds that the burden imposed is slight and not likely to discourage anyone from voting.

Is it even theoretically possible to fill the newly vacant SCOTUS seat before election?
On one hand, it would be bad optics to be seen to rush through a new judge before the seat is even cold, and give the impression of the GOP having little faith in their ability to win the election.
On the other hand, anyone who hasn't been swayed by 4+ years of constant 'bad optics' towards bad orange man is unlikely to care about one more thing, even it it for once has some merit. And having Ginsbergs seat already filled by a conservative could demoralise the Dem base who might othervies have just gotten something to rally behind instead of their decrepit and barely cognitive presidential candidate.

It's possible, but expect shit to get fucking crazy fast.
Also, if anyone thinks Monmoth polling is nonpartisan:

You make some good points, but remember that Obama left judge seats vacant and we saw how well that worked out for him and his legacy.

She's a dangerous one. Within the next few decades she'll have guaranteed a voting niche for herself, and become a serious threat to more populist-aligned Republicans.

In terms of the polls and whatnot, I don't think that RBG's passing is going to affect them. The people freaking the hell out right now are already "Vote Blue No Matter Who and Orange Man Bad" people.
The thing that is going to affect this election, in my opinion, is voter fraud. That is the only thing, as a Trump supporter, that I am greatly concerned about.

Any reason why this happened, btw? Seems like it'd be wise to pack the courts and influence the nation that way through legal interpretation and precedent than relying on executive or legislative power, which has a tendency to be unruly.
I have never looked into it and was unaware of this until Trump mentioned when he got into office there were hundreds of vacancies or something absurd.
Unless Obama and his administration saw it as a boon to overload the courts or something... But that's tinfoil tier.

Nah just that ACB is way too high profile pro-life. A conservative mamacita on the SCOTUS without that baggage to inflame the hordes of dangerhairs would prove to Latinos in America that the liberals who profess to love them actually just want to use them (since we know they'll try to slime her regardless). A black woman would be even better. There's also an Asian woman in Chicago, Martha Pacold, who could be good for that, but I think playing idpol against the leftists where it hurts them most electorally is the best way to take advantage of the situation.
Edit: Also pushing a nomination while Kamala is on the Senate Judiciary takes her away from campaigning. And if it's through Zoom, there's no real chance that she gets those hot takes that look great in the media during these showtime hearings. But I'm not certain if that's the procedure for the Judiciary Committee. I guess if not, and it's in person, then it takes away a little from the Harris-Biden "we care about coronavirus and will stay locked down until 20XX" push?
