Joe Biden Responds to Trump’s Supreme Court Pick Amy Coney Barrett






“Never before in our nation’s history has a Supreme Court justice been nominated and installed while a presidential election is already underway.”

JoeBiden says Trump’s nomination of Amy Coney Barrett is a “loophole” in the aftermath of RBG’s death.

Biden mentioned Barrett only once in his speech, but only to note that she criticized Chief Justice John Roberts’ opinion to uphold Obamacare.

Barrett, a professor at Notre Dame Law School, is now a judge on the Seventh U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. She clerked for Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and vowed to follow his textualist approach to deciding cases. If confirmed, she could move the court to the right for decades.

Polls show a majority of voters believe the next president should fill Ginsburg’s seat, and Democrats are hoping voters will rebel against Republicans for expediting the process.
