There have been more deaths in the first eight months of the current fiscal year, which ends Sept. 30, than in all 12 months of five of the six preceding years.
A Democrat who concedes to Republican threats will be as likely to put a guy like Thomas up as Trump would. We got lucky with Jackson, but Biden’s clearly in a state of deterioration. Very likely we end up with him compromising us down to another Thomas or ACB in his second term, as he and his friends on the Judiciary committee are known to do.
I wish you would just admit you can’t answer what I asked.
For the very last time and please just answer and stop moving the goalposts: If the parties are the same, why would Trump have chosen Jackson as a SCOTUS justice?

Ask Bush Sr why he picked David Souter. I have no idea why he’d pick a justice like Jackson, but conservatives picking liberal judges has been known to happen.
All I know is that - between Biden Democrats and Trump Republicans - we’ve had a stacked conservative court despite Democrats holding the Presidency for twice as long. This would suggest that both parties endorse a conservative majority on the courts.
I have no idea why he’d pick a justice like Jackson
If the parties were both the same, you would have an idea since it would be the same reason Biden did it. But you can’t say that since you know Trump would not pick a left-wing black woman for a justice as that is absolutely absurd.
If the parties were both the same, you would have an idea
That’s nonsense. Can you explain how Bush Sr picked both Souter and Thomas? He’s the same guy, so explaining the gulf between the candidates should be easy.
But you can’t say that since you know Trump would not pick a left-wing black woman
Bush Jr picked liberal feminist Harriet Myers less than a month before he switched to rabid conservative fanatic Samuel Alito. Myers was shot down by Biden’s judiciary committee. Can you explain that?
Can you explain the gulf between Merrick Garland and Sonya Sotomayer? Both Obama nominees. How about the distance between Sandra Day O’Conner and Robert Bork? Both Reagan nominees.
You don’t know your judicial history. You certainly don’t know how Trump or Biden make political decisions.
Souter and Thomas were right-wing and calling Harriet Miers a feminist or even suggesting she is a capable justice on the level of justice Jackson is proof that you are not serious.
Again- if the parties are the same, Trump and Biden would have the same reason to pick her.
Which you are claiming is not the case.
Which, again, proves my point.
Either they are the same or they’re not the same. You want it both ways.
And no, I’m not going to explain anything while you insist on having it both ways, sorry.
But… since you know your judicial history and know why they pick justices, you can still explain what that same reason is.
Why can’t you just admit you won’t give me the explanation I asked for a long time ago?
Why would I want a President who put Thomas on the bench?
Not relevant to what I asked. If you can’t answer what I asked, I’m not going to talk to you about anything else, sorry.
