Amy Coney Barrett

I'm being deluged with "we must stop Trump from filling RBG's seat" e-mails and messages, and they are not moving my dial at all. That shoe dropped back in 2016. It's been obvious since Garland that McConnell would seat anyone a Republican nominated, even if they were nominated on January 15, 2021. I don't care about Barrett, or what people who know her attest. She's accepted the nomination from Trump some 40 days before the election; that tells me all I need to know. If I were a senator, I wouldn't meet with her, I wouldn't attend the hearings, and I wouldn't cast a vote pro or con. She can't be stopped, but she shouldn't have a shred of bipartisan legitimacy. Let her win by 51-0.
