Republicans Spit on RBG’s Grave with ‘Ghoulish’ and ‘Disgusting’ ‘Notorious ACB’ T-shirts and Twitter Has Had It

Andy Towle September 27, 2020 Leave a Comment

Minutes after the White House announced Donald Trump’s intention to nominate arch-conservative Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court, the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) began fundraising by selling “Notorious ACB” t-shirts, lifting and rebranding the nickname famously given to the late progressive Ruth Bader Ginsburg, even as flags around the nation still stood at half staff and the body of “Notorious RBG” awaited burial.

The sickening display of disrespect of the longtime Justice, who couldn’t be more different than Barrett ideologically, has not gone unnoticed:

This makes me sick to my stomach. https://t.co/88O20sD8Rf

What an appalling display of disrespect. Deplorable was ALWAYS too polite a term for you.

Disgraceful. And like your policies, you have no new ideas.

Even though we already we’re dealing with piles of human garbage, this is unbelievably disrespectful.

you know what, she has to earn her own GD nickname, and it sure as hell is not the same as RGBs, especially after a piddling legal career.

“Notorious” can have either positive or negative connotations. “Notorious RGB” was a fun play on Ginsberg’s strength, independence, and solid jurisprudnce.

Using “notorious” for Mrs. Barrett simply illuminates the illegitimacy and cowardice in this nomination.

She hasn’t done enough to be similar to Notoriouos RGB. This is insulting to have it for sale when RGB is not even buried yet. When I think GOP can’t go any lower, you do. I have voted Republican in past, but will never, ever vote Republican again.

So on brand for how inhuman republicans act and believe. They really think this is cute. When November brings a backhand of humiliation, it will not surprise anyone. pic.twitter.com/qxPIC1LqrO

Fuck every single Senate Republican for mocking the title RBG worked and fought her entire life for by calling Amy Coney Barrett "Notorious ACB".

Disrespectful, disgusting, vile, motherfuckers. Stop spitting in the face of strong women!

— Kyla in the Burgh 🏴‍☠️🔥 (@KylaInTheBurgh) September 27, 2020

The NRSC is tweeting out a call to "Support the Notorious ACB" and I'm… RAGE FLAMES.

RBG earned that nickname as a badge of honor over nearly 9 decades. The GOP can't just steal it and hand it to Trump's pocket Judge Handmaid a scant week later. It's laughably grotesque. pic.twitter.com/DiabOd4aMk

— Dumped, Dreadwolf & Dalish (she/her) (@DrunkDalish) September 27, 2020

folks are so unoriginal, black lives matter; now you have to say white or blue lives matter, Notorious BIG, Notorious RBG to Notorious ACB. Way to embarrass your stolen seat nominee by comparing her to someone she can never live up to. You really stuck it to the left on that one pic.twitter.com/Ez2NEqWMsK
