RBG vacancy opens door to SCOTUS tie votes
I posted this last night when the thought hit me, but want to post it again for new eyes. I think this is a very important point.
The timing on RBG's demise was planned. Day 45 before the election.
But here's something we need to consider. With her death, we're left with a SCOTUS that is:
4 Conservatives
3 Liberals
1 compromised Never-Trumper
This means that the likelihood of all the upcoming election battles could result in a SCOTUS tie (because the Dems will no doubt pull Roberts' strings and make him vote with the libs). A tie results in the ruling reverting back to whatever the lower court has ruled.
The DS did this deliberately to give them better odds at getting court decisions that go their way (reminder of Flynn and the en banc ruling). This is only going to add to the confusion and chaos when they try to steal the election.
I just think we need to let people know about this because there will be some extremely important election-oriented rulings before the SCOTUS in the near future. The timing is NOT coincidental.
