TDS escalation! Rob Reiner PLEADS with GOPers to 'stand up against tyranny' before constitutional process is followed on SCOTUS

Doug P. | 12:37 PM on June 28, 2018

The liberals’ no good, awful, terrible week isn’t even over yet, and now that President Trump has a Supreme Court justice to nominate, Rob Reiner’s sounding the “tyranny” alarm:

The illegitimate POTUS will now try to ram a SCOTUS nominee through before Nov. So much for that McConnell rule. Calling on two principled Republicans to stand up against tyranny.

Well, it kind of depends on what your definition of “tyranny” is:

tyranny: an elected president sending a justice nomination to elected senators just like it says in the constitution. https://t.co/1N2b6hmXrm

How many drugs do you have to do to think the President doing exactly what the Constitution says he should do is tyranny? https://t.co/7xkqeLvWKv

“Tyranny,” just the way the Founders drew up, or something.

Illegitimate.

The “McConnell Rule” only applied to presidential elections, Robbie. He said, “…this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president.”

To call this “tyranny” is to trivialize the struggles of all who actually live under tyrannical regimes.#ThursdayThoughts https://t.co/M2iBpbQ91H

Gosh, at times like these – you know, with tyranny and such happening – don't you wish you supported having an armed citizenry? https://t.co/RfNcO6G1N9
