But because they weren't heeded, the court will be out of balance.
If the new court is faced with deciding the election, then it will be a quid pro quo--trump picks them, they pick Trump.
So now would be a could time to think about how to secure the court's credibility.
McConnell should follow his own precedent.
So is this you saying RGB's words shouldn't be heeded now?
I side with RGB on this one. A POTUS is elected for a 4 year term.
What McConnell and the GOP did in 2016 was wrong; I stated it then and I state it now.
Any attempts to stop this setting POTUS from selecting a SCOTUS justice will be wrong. I'll state it now and again in 2024 if required.
