Republicans celebrated Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation as an associate justice of the Supreme Court Monday night, announcing it as a victory for the United States, while Democrats declared it a dark day for America and said they will not stop fighting against what they call the “illegitimate process.”
Throughout the confirmation hearings, Republicans applauded Barrett’s legal knowledge, temperament, and character while Democrats claimed with Barrett in the High Court, the majority will change long-standing precedent.
