The media is in a total panic and I’m not going to lie, I’m loving every second of it. They have no idea what to do because they know President Trump and the Republican-run Senate can ram a new judge right through.
Let’s start with Joe Scarborough, this is weird…Oh, and if you are short on time skip to the one minute mark. Is he drunk?

Schumer trying to rally his base made an appearance with AOC almost threatening the Republicans and conservatives that they will fight. Look, Schumer you can threaten us all you want, we aren’t afraid of you.
“My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed.” —RBG
I’m standing with @AOC at James Madison HS—RBG’s alma mater and mine
Dems are united in fighting to honor RBG’s last wish and all that’s at stake for health care and Americans’ rights pic.twitter.com/C3dqm0So8J

The panic continued on Morning Joe. Jon Meacham, a presidential historian is claiming that Republicans following a protocol are not following protocol (no this isn’t a joke).
MSNBC’s @jmeacham suggests Republicans are violating the Constitution by following the Constitution’s protocol for SCOTUS vacancies; he asks if it’s a “durable document” when Republicans have “opted out.” pic.twitter.com/J08FtqAGUo

One last unhinged clip from MSNBC…
Former politician @clairecmc says her 20-year-old daughter “sobbed” when learning of RBG’s death.
“So yes, I am sad about Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death. But the other thing I’m sad about … is the death of the U.S. Senate. [McConnell] has killed the Senate.” pic.twitter.com/OqQUh0JGPB

I think this may be the week the President breaks the media and the Democrats; they aren’t going to be able to keep up.
