It took just minutes after Amy Coney Barrett was officially nominated to the Supreme Court for Democrats to recirculate organized talking points in an attempt to delegitimize Barrett and her nomination.
I will refuse to treat this process as legitimate & will not meet with Judge Amy Coney Barrett.
— Richard Blumenthal (@SenBlumenthal) September 26, 2020
Nearly every Democratic lawmaker who tweeted in response to Barrett's nomination claimed Barrett will threaten health care access and so-called female reproductive rights, a clear indication the talking points were organized.
Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.):
Trump's hand-picked successor to Justice Ginsburg's seat makes it clear: they intend to destroy the Affordable Care Act & overturn Roe. This selection would move the court further right for a generation & harm millions of Americans. I strongly oppose Judge Barrett's nomination.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi:
For four years, President Trump has tried to crush the Affordable Care Act. With his Supreme Court nominee, he is threatening the destruction of every benefit and protection of the ACA, including life-saving protections for 135 million Americans with pre-existing conditions.
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.):
Amy Coney Barrett's nomination to the Supreme Court is the product of a corrupt, illegitimate process that undermines the will of the American people. Alongside her dangerous, ultra-conservative record, she's not fit to serve on the Supreme Court.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.):
The American people should make no mistake: A vote by any Senator for Judge Amy Coney Barrett is a vote to eliminate health care for millions in the middle the COVID-19 pandemic. Democrats are fighting for Americans' health care.read more here: https://www.theblaze.com/news/illegitimate-democrats-swiftly-move-to-delegitimize-amy-coney-barrett-with-organized-talking-points
