Let's see if he feels this way when Trump nominates Ginsberg's replacement.


Ginsburg will not voluntarily step down.

IMO if Gorsuch gets 60+ votes, Trump should probably try to push some infrastructure spending in those liberal states whose senators were grown up enough to keep partisanship out of the process.

Super serious, bro. The leaders of the next revolution can't take too much ridicule on the sports forum.



But for real...

Sage advice. If they filibuster Gorsuch, McConnell will go nuclear. He'll be justified in doing so. As that Rubicon is crossed, Dems will lose all credibility in selections going forward.

Dems should keep their powder dry.

Yeah. It was just bad timing. The call by Biden didn't help with a Republican Senate though.

Lettuce pray we can become the opposition party because we are better at bitching than governing by a mile. The spin doctors are working hard on both sides.

Well it's the only thing he's done right, so I won't begrudge him another court pick.

He's created and guaranteed jobs.

Lock for SCOTUS

Has created optimism in the markets.

Killed leaders of ISIS.

Just think what he could get accomplished if the entire weight of the USIC wasn't trying to sabotage him.
