Mitch McConnell Says He'd Go After Supreme Court Vacancy In 2020: 'We'd Fill It'

Such a spineless and evil man this cretin from Kentucky is. Kentucky DUers, rise up and spread the word.....Mitch McConnell shows his true racist colors.....

The Senate majority leader blocked Merrick Garland’s nomination during the Obama administration in 2016, purportedly because it was an election year.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said Tuesday he would work to fill any Supreme Court vacancy in 2020, an election year, despite his efforts to scuttle Judge Merrick Garland’s nomination to the bench for that very reason in 2016.

“Uh, we’d fill it,” McConnell said in response to an audience question during an event at the Paducah Chamber of Commerce in Kentucky on Tuesday afternoon. The lawmaker issued a small smile during his answer as guests in the room laughed.

He continued: “The reason I started with the judges ... I mean, if you want to have a long-lasting positive impact on a country, everything else changes.”

McConnell’s office did not immediately reply to HuffPost’s request for clarification of his remarks.

The US Senate is in play here, people. Which is why sitting out the 2020 election is NOT an option. Mitch McConnell is an evil man down to his rotten immoral core. He must be demoted to Minority Leader if he should get re-elected.
