...will we have any chance of filling the open Supreme Court spot at all?

Or will the GOP just block anyone Hillary nominates during her term and just leave the spot open until the next time a Republican wins the White House?


That's kind of my fear. Even if Clinton wins, the GOP may just refuse to allow her to fill the spot at all. I'm not sure if there's anything that could be done about it tbh.

Was hoping somebody would explain to me why I'm wrong :mjcry:

Not even including the Senate and them voting on Supreme Court picks....in terms of actual legislation lets be honest Hillary is gonna face gridlock her entire 4 years. Its painfully obvious. Plus she just has one term president written all over her face.

Plus her saying there is no doubt as President she would make Bill in charge of economic initiatives would not go well with Republicans and they would spend 4 years talking about him taking plane rides on a pedophile's plane.

When Black people get pissed at her lack of action towards our issues, once again as always they will blame Congress and say they dontt have that much power. Hillary pulls the inevitable "You had a Black president for 8 years why didnt you ask him"?

Donald Trump runs in 2020 again and wins after record low support for the Democratic candidate from Black people. and is the new "Comeback Kid'

She might have a shot if the Dems can do some damage in '18

People are saying she's a 1 term president but we saw how the hyenas voted in the GOP primary.... I hope and pray they put up someone decent but history and data says they will find someone even worse than Trump. David Duke? So there is a chance.

That's not happening. Republicans will keep control of the House until 2022 more than likely because that's when the district's will be redrawn. The Democrats have more Senate seats up for reelection than Republicans in 2018. There's going to be nothing but grindlock for the next 4 yrs.

Who knows... honestly. You have people threatening not to fill vacancies but it may be pre election bluster to secure their own positions.

If the dems get the senate then I don't think it will be a problem.

David Duke speaks against Zionists, so he will never make it out the primary. Dude isn't even doing that well in the Louisiana Senate race.

if the republicans retained the senate and just refused to fill the supreme court vacancy and democrats don't show up in 2018 (regardless of who is defending more seats) in presidential year turnout levels then we deserve the govt we'll have.
