Trump Responds to Susan Collins Statement, Trolls Barack Obama in Response to Garland Whataboutism

Red State: Before departing for a campaign rally in Fayetteville, NC, President Trump took questions from reporters at the White House regarding a number of topics, most of which had to do with filling the vacancy on the Supreme Court after the announcement of the death of Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

After announcing a deal on Tik-Tok, Trump was asked if he wanted to see a nominee on his Supreme Court choice before the election happens. Trump voiced his agreement with Mitch Mc

Well, we’ll see what happens. We’ll be talking to people soon. We have great respect for the process. This has happened numerous times and every time there was a nominee, as you know, there’s been many occasions where frankly it turned out to be during a presidential year. I think there – I heard 28, but whatever it may be. But in all cases, they went forward. But we want to respect the process, and the process will move – I think it’s gonna move very quickly, actually.

I agree with the statement put out by Mitch McConnell. I agree with it, actually, 100 percent. I put out a very similar statement you saw. So I think we’re going to start the process extremely soon and we’ll have a nominee very soon.

Trump was also asked about the statement Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) put out Saturday afternoon (as covered by my colleague Nick Arama), the reporter asking, “Senator Collins said she’d like to see the next president be the one to nominate the next Supreme Court Justice. What is your reaction to that?” Trump replied (emphasis added): MORE

  1. …just go “D”, Collins, you seem to be caucusing with them anyway, might as well be HONEST about it…

    …oh, and Rino Squish Woman?

    .. President Trump IS the next President, so you WILL be seeing the next President pick either way…

  2. …these bastards, RINOS included, are just trying to collapse the system at this point. Collins KNOWS the Democrats will screw the vote up SO badly that SCOTUS will HAVE to be involved, and that’s why she wants the COURT out of action then, TOO.

    They figure the Communists will rule the ruins.

    I figure we’ll be hanging a LOT of traitors before its over, RINOs included.

    …we’ll see who’s figuring correctly in just a little while now, might wanna get your affairs in order Susan, just sayin’…

  3. I trust President Trump to seat a new member of SCOTUS, whether before or after he is re-elected.
    The dnc/soroschwartz ´protestors´ will go rabid & the sooner the better.
    After all, The United States has the most powerful Military in the world …..

  4. If it’s okay to impeach a president in an election year, it’s okay for him to nominate a supreme court justice –or carry out any other DUTIES of his office.

    Is he supposed to suspend all work for months prior to the election because he might not be president next year? For how many months? The left is talking shite.

  6. I do wish that POTUS Trump had not commented that it is “appropriate” that his choice is a woman. Yeah, I know it’s an election year and all, but we have to stop this nonsense of Marxist identity politics on both sides of the aisle. There’s no reason, other than politics, that makes a woman an “appropriate” choice over a man for any office.

  7. Sorry, didn’t mean to double post; tried editing on my phone. But, if ever there were a topic worth repeating myself on, this is it.

    The left has already announced its post-election strategy for the supreme court and it is war. Trump has to make his Constitutional move now or they will remake the Constitution.

    And another thing: Suppose the election results are challenged and end up in the supreme court. Mark my words: the left will demand any sitting justices he appointed recuse themselves.

  8. And before the smug leftists say, “But Obama didn’t lose an election, Trump is an idiot” let me point out that Obama lost the Senate in 2014. Obama lost many, many elections, not just one. He had the worst coattails ever, because he was only in the game for himself. If he’d kept the Senate Democrat majority, he might have gotten his Garland. So sad, too bad.

  9. So many of the senate Republicans are just weak. I saw Cory Gardner let out a statement about needing time to mourn before the politics begin. It was the democrats that didn’t even take a minute to honor her life before attacking and Trump that actually did. Who does Gardner think that kind of pandering plays to? No one that is voting for Hickenlooper in CO is going to be impressed and neither is anyone supporting the President and since he has 94% or higher support of the base it is just a bad move that pisses people off. That seat is gonzo come January. Gardner is just a total loser.

  10. Damn, I wish Palin would challenge Murkowski for the nomination. I know she’s done far more in her life than most for her country but a snake like Murkowski is incredibly dangerous and needs to be replaced by someone who cares more about the country then themselves. Murkowski and Collins are also why every conservative everywhere but especially in states where the Senator/Congressman are Democrats to work especially hard to defeat them even if the task seems impossible.

  11. I can’t stand Collins, by the way has anyone seen Pierre Mittens on this issue, 🤔 he’s usually out there ripping the President every chance he gets.

    Speaking of Rino’s, why is it the last 20 year’s I am forced to vote for a Rino for Senator here in Arizona? Really pisses me off. 🤬

  12. Turns out GWB is a traitor. He’s a globalist. @GWB – Go away – you had your turn now STFU and go away gracefully rather than adding more disgrace to your presidency and life.
