The Relativity of Time by the Republicans

You can't nominate a SCOTUS appointee in an election year. Although turtle said he would nominate one in 2020 if an opening occurred.

You can't impeach a President in an election year.

This bending of time only applies to Democratic candidates or proposals, however.

Only apply to Democrats, don't you know. But that doesn't stop the MSM from hemming and hawing that "maybe they have a point" or "both sides" nonsense.

No finish before Christmas. No plow into January already up to August as far as I am concerned.
