Trump's RACIST GOP Walks Out After the US Senate Vote for Our Next Supreme Court Justice!

Guests · Apr 8, 2022

One of my Senators, Dan Sullivan, also participated in that bit of bigoted theatre. They aren't self aware enough to be embarrassed by that and neither are their voters.

The fringe of the GOP party including Mitt Romney joined with Democrats to vote 53/47 in the US Senate to solidify Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson as our next Supreme Court Justice and make US History! On another historical matter, the racist Trump-supporting GOP walked out after the vote:

Trump's GOP walked out because she is a black woman and qualified, which is everything the Trump-supporting sycophant politicians hate! This includes the jealous losers like Cancun, Ted Cruz, wishy-washy-doesn't-know-what-he-really-thinks-unless-he-polls-Trump, Lindsey Graham, and stick-man-and-supporter-of-the-insurrection-on-January-6, Josh Hawley. Thankfully, the latter three will never be a US President and they will never be seated on the US Supreme Court!

Many supporters of the Democratic Party of been victims of and indoctrined by the game of race identity politics that is played with the goal of dividing us.

What a fine example this post is.

Many supporters of Trump have happily consumed lies on a daily basis including the propaganda authored by White Supremacist that racism does not exist in America and that those who point it out are brainwashed/indoctrinated and perpetual victims in order to shame us into silence. Such is the nonsense that is also echoed by the talking heads such as those in the far-right Trump-supporting media, like Tucker Carlson. Your post is an example. My post is me speaking up!

For your information racism is real in 2022 as evidenced by the plain stupid questions and clown show from Trump's GOP during the Senate hearing and their racist actions after the vote to place a qualified black female Judge onto the Supreme Court. Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson is smart, educated, qualified, and rose above their attempt to take her down! My original post was acknowledge her and point out the clowns.

Whether racism exists or not has nothing to do with the post you made.

You've been conditioned that whenever a Republican or conservative disagrees with a black person, it's because they are racist. It's actually quite disgusting.

Do you really think that if everything else was the same, but if Biden's nominee had been a white man the vote would have been any different?

They are racist, just because you support them, does not make them less so.

Just because you say they are, and because you avoided my simple question, doesn't mean they are.

One senator's reasons for not supporting the nomination:

"It is clear that Judge Jackson’s judicial philosophy and positions on the defining issues of our time make her the wrong choice for the Supreme Court. From leaving the door open on court packing to her multiple overturned opinions, I cannot support a nominee with her record of judicial activism."

You must not have watched the Senate hearing because the racism was only very thinly veiled. No the vote wouldn't have been much different had the nominee been a white male because all but only a few of the Republican senate are partisan to a fault and are happy to obstruct as much of Biden's agenda as is humanly possible. The argument and questions for the candidate would have been different, for a white male from the Republican senators, but the vote would have been similar.

What is becoming more and more disgusting is the attempt to project this partisan nonsense onto others and convince us that we aren't hearing and seeing from these GOP "leaders" what we are actually hearing and seeing. It's simply astounding that people can be so oblivious to this obvious behavior.

I agree with you. This has more to do with the fact that it's Biden's nominee and a liberal. If it were a white man, they would have found a reason to not approve of him, wouldn't have voted for him and behaved exactly the same. They can't be seen as supporting Biden at all.

I do think the narrative of being pro-pedophile is ugly and their behavior was inappropriate and unprofessional, but not necessarily racist.

Jackson, COVID and a retirement show Congress' partisan path

A milestone Supreme Court confirmation that endured a flawed process

Quote

...Republicans said they would treat Jackson respectfully, and many did. Their questions and criticisms of her were pointed and partisan, with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., saying “the Senate views itself as a co-partner in this process” with the president.

Yet some potential 2024 GOP presidential contenders seemed to use Jackson’s confirmation to woo hard-right support. Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Josh Hawley, R-Mo., misleadingly accused her of being unusually lenient on child Mediaography offenders. Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., suggested she might have defended Nazis at the Nuremburg trials after World War II, before she was born.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Richard Durbin, D-Ill., said some Republicans “went overboard, as far as I’m concerned, to the extreme,” reflecting “the reality of politics on Capitol Hill.” Cotton was “fundamentally unfair, but that is his tradition,” said Durbin....

...Senate approval of high court nominees by voice vote, without bothering to hold roll calls, was standard for most of the 20th century. Conservative Antonin Scalia sailed into the Supreme Court by 98-0 in 1986, while liberal Ruth Bader Ginsburg won 96-3 approval seven years later....

These sentiments are what I viewed watching this years Senate hearings --- remember watching Scalia and Ginsburg hearings not as strident GOP questioning as this years.

I agree. We have reached a new low on the GOP side of confirmation hearings. But is it racism or just a continuing on what these vile people have been doing for a while now? None of those people saying crazy vile things is new.

Yes, most reasonable people see it was about party politics, and not race.

Of course, there are many headlines that mention racism and sexism. The one article I read, the author was really stretching things to make a case for what the headline was claiming. One example was I guess one senator mentioned she was likeable. Somehow, that was a insult to a black woman.

I agree, the pedophile stuff was over the top.

Wow. How quickly the Kavanaugh hearing has been forgotten.
