What was the reaction when Scalia died?89Hen wrote: ↑Thu Sep 24, 2020 10:43 am Liberal friend posted on FB that Trump's folks didn't want to tell him about RBG at the Minny rally because they feared the audience would cheer her death. He was upset at this notion that people would cheer her death because of the country Trump has created. I don't disagree that they may have cheered and it would be a bad look. But:
1. How bad would it be if they did cheer? They might be cheering because of the vacancy, not her death per se.
2. Is it really any worse than the people booing and chanting at Trump today while visiting RBG's casket to pay respects?
3. Do you really think Dems wouldn't cheer the death of a conservative justice if a Dem were in office?
I'm pretty sure I remember the left being quite happy when Scalia died, so we already know what Dems would do when a conservative justice died with a Dem in the White House. Heck, posters on here were absolutely giddy over his passing. Less so after the GOP Senate said they were going to wait until the election, and even less giddy when the GOP won the White House and held the Senate after that election, but they were more than happy that Scalia was dead.89Hen wrote: ↑Thu Sep 24, 2020 10:43 am Liberal friend posted on FB that Trump's folks didn't want to tell him about RBG at the Minny rally because they feared the audience would cheer her death.

While much of the social media chatter on Scalia's death was positive, many on the left took the opportunity to express dislike for Justice Scalia and his positions.
They booed Trump and Melania at RBGs funeral today.89Hen wrote: ↑Thu Sep 24, 2020 11:34 am https://www.cbsnews.com/news/swift-soci ... ias-death/

If I remember correctly, it was a feminist thing...HilDog was running, and the thought was she’s win...
If that's the case then fuck her 'last request' to have the next POTUS nominate her replacement.
