Meltdown City: Dems Threaten to ‘Burn It Down’ After RBG News, One Drinks on Live TV After McConnell Statement
The breaking news of the death of 87-year-old Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg less than 2 months before the presidential election has sent Democrats and their allies in the mainstream media into an absolute tailspin.
It’s panic time for them on a massive scale. The unthinkable has happened: With Ginsburg’s passing, President Trump has another opportunity to nominate someone to the Supreme Court.
Even before Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden had a chance to react publicly to the news, and before Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell made crystal clear that “President Trump’s nominee will receive a vote on the floor of the United States Senate”, the left’s eruptions were off the charts cray cray.
Some threatened to either “shut down” the country or “burn the entire f*cking thing down.” Supposed “journalists” warned of riots. Others called for a “revolution.” Another said a Trump SCOTUS nomination needed to be stopped “at all costs.” McConnell’s address was shared on Twitter and a march commenced to his house:
If they even TRY to replace RBG we burn the entire fucking thing down.

In August of 2019, protesters appeared outside of Senator McConnell’s home and said someone should “stab the motherfu*cker in the heart.” https://t.co/317nYnNaUd pic.twitter.com/JZbxHnHya2

If McConnell jams someone through, which he will, there will be riots.

We’re shutting this country down if Trump and McConnell try to ram through an appointment before the election.

So they are marching to Mitch's house & sharing his address on Twitter if you thought this was going to go some other, saner, way.

One liberal writer/commentator even swigged wine on live TV after MSNBC’s Chris Hayes read McConnell’s statement on air:
Somebody alert the Pulitzer Committee for this one…

Something tells me the violent BLM/Antifa riots we’ve seen this summer will be mere child’s play in comparison to what I fear is in store in the coming weeks.
As Joe Biden once infamously said, “gird your loins.” The chaos has only just begun.
