No doubt most everyone remembers the complete insanity that reined during the Brett Kavanaugh Supreme Court confirmation hearings, with liberals shouting, begging for a delay in the hearings, constantly interrupting the proceedings..... and that was the actual Democrat politicians. The protesters were even more insane, heckling lawmakers as they tried to conduct the hearings, forcing Capitol Police to physically remove them, some having to be dragged out, others carried, as shown in the image above.
After the confirmation vote, protesters then launched themselves at the Supreme Court doors, literally clawing at them like mindless zombies, pounding on the locked doors and generally making spectacles of themselves.
That was President Trump's second Supreme Court nominee..... and now, after SC Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's recent slew of medical issues, falling and breaking ribs, then nearly two months later having two cancerous growths removed from her left lung on Dec. 21, liberals are in a panic that if her health continues to fail, she will be forced to retire and President Trump will get another Supreme Court nominee confirmed.
GINSBURG'S HEALTH WORSE THAN BEING REPORTED
In early November Ginsburg, who is 85 years old, fell and fractured a number of ribs. During treatment for the fractured ribs doctors discovered two malignant cancerous growths on her left lung, which were removed by surgical procedure on December 21, 2018. She was released from the hospital on December 25, 2018, and has been recuperating at home since.
Prior to Ginsburg's latest health issues, she had suffered broken ribs in 2012, and has gone through two bouts of cancer resulting in surgical procedures, in 1999 (Colon cancer) and 2009 (pancreatic cancer). She also had a stent implanted in her heart to open a blocked artery in 2014, Fox News reports.
I have been hearing rumblings that Justice Ginsburg's health is worse than what is being reported, but they were simply rumblings and unconfirmed, but it appears that some liberal writers are also hearing from their sources that her "health was more precarious than the reports after her December 21st surgery for lung cancer had indicated," writes Paul Campos at the liberal website Lawyers, Guns and Money.
During an Interview in December 2018, Ginsburg reiterated her desire to continue on with her work, stating "I said I will do this job as long as I can do it full steam," which brings us to more recent reports that may indicate that she can no longer do the job at "full steam."
Monday morning the Associated Press, and others revealed that Ginsburg would miss Supreme Court arguments for the first time in her 25 year tenure as a SC Justice. According to Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg, Ginsburg will be recuperating and working from court transcripts from home, with no indication when she would be able to return to the court.
Surgery, especially lung surgery for malignant, cancerous growths, is hard on the body, even for those much younger and in good shape, and Ginsburg is 85 and still recuperating from fractured ribs, which doesn't put her in the "fit and healthy" category in any way.
While we wish no ill-will against RBG, if she cannot participate in the oral argument phase, she is not moving "full steam," and even if she does recover enough to start attending oral arguments again, her frailty and health does not make it probable that she will be able to continue at the same pace she has for the past decades.
PRESIDENT TRUMP WOULD NOMINATE HIS THIRD SUPREME COURT JUSTICE
It is widely believed in conservative circles that President Trump would nominate a female candidate off his expanded list published in November 2017, which included five women.
Out of those, one specific names was floated before President Trump nominated Kavanaugh, and that was Amy Coney Barrett, of Indiana, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. To learn more about Barrett, Scotus Blog has the "Potential nominee profile: Amy Coney Barrett," with her full history and qualifications.
BOTTOM LINE
Should Ginsburg be forced to step down due to her failing health, President Trump will immediately nominate another conservative judge. The inevitable and completely predictable protests that will be conducted during that confirmation hearing and vote for that nominee, will undoubtedly make the Kavanaugh circus look like a pleasant walk in the park.
The level of panic seen across social media each and every time Ginsburg's name starts trending offers a clue of how unhinged liberals are going to be if she is forced to step down due to her failing health, and over whatever candidate is chosen by President Trump as his third Supreme Court nominee.
After the 2018 midterms elections, where Republicans gained seats in the Senate, Democrats in the Senate cannot hope to garner enough Republican votes to block the President's choice.
Knowing all that, prepare for the ultimate liberal mass meltdown, which will start when and if any announcement occurs about Ginsburg stepping down, and fully expect that meltdown to last throughout the nomination process for another conservative Justice, the confirmation hearings, and ultimately a third Supreme Court Justice chosen by President Donald Trump, sworn in.
