Supreme Court Vacancy Likely to Inflame US Presidential Debate

News 18  

President Donald Trump and his Democratic challenger, Joe Biden, were already set to fight when they share a stage Tuesday in Cleveland, but the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg means things may get tenser even faster. Barnett played Mike Pence in mock debates with Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Kaine in 2016, while helping prepare Hillary Clinton for her debates with Trump though he’s not formally helping Biden prepare this time. He said Biden will have to highlight the Senate fight to start but would be wise to pivot to the consequences of a court with three Trump nominees, including stricter limits on abortion and voting rights, relaxed gun regulations and the potential overturning of the Affordable Care Act which the Supreme Court could determine is unconstitutional in a case that will be heard just after the election. Rocha said Biden will likely use the Supreme Court vacancy and other issues to try to rattle Trump and get him to blurt out ill-advised remarks.
