Trump’s SCOTUS picks are definitely a hot topic in political circles; heck, even people who don’t live and breathe this nonsense are talking about it. And considering it sounds like Trump could be nominating a WOMAN for the court?
Serious amounts of boom-diggity.
We are already popping several bags of popcorn so we’re prepared for the announcement on or around July 9 because it’s going to be LIT.
In the meantime, there is plenty of back and forth going on about the picks …
For a SCOTUS nominee to be rejected, that likely requires both of the following:
1. All Democrats, including 3 who voted for Gorsuch, to vote no.
2. Collins and Murkowski impose a litmus test on abortion that no nominee has ever had to pass before. https://t.co/25Cs4vELlE

Honestly, if Trump’s pick is another Constitutionalist what reason would Collins and Murkowski have NOT to vote for his pick other than to spite Trump?
This scenario, while not likely, is not impossible, which is why predictions of confirmation inevitability are way premature. This is going to get ugly and some Republicans could well break ranks. https://t.co/cRhorpZ1l4

Everything has been fairly ugly since about 2009, but fair point by Brit.
Ugh. Obama needs to remind his loyalists that elections have consequences.

What was the other one? Don’t like it, win an election?
That may be our favorite.
Name one thing Trump has accomplished that couldn’t be accomplished by President Jeb Bush or Rubio? Just curious.

LOOK OUT.
Damn.
Admit it, you felt this burn clear over there.

Truth.
Getting rid of regulations, getting tax cuts for corporations so they can invest in America, enforcing immigration, standing up to the media, DNC & GOP, start the process of peace with N korea. Most of all TRUMP represents the people not the GOP.

Hey man, that person just asked for one.
Freakin’ over-achiever.
Heh.

I find that answer to be simple, yet so satisfying. Nice!
