Won't happen during the Trump administration.

Maybe during Vance's 8 years.

Rand Paul


Not a lawyer. An ophthalmologist. As much as I love Rand, he’s exceptionally, exceptionally unqualified to be a Supreme Court Justice, and he’d be the first to tell you this. I wanted him to be Secretary of State, but he had a Democrat Governor, so can’t remove him from the Senate.

Believe it or not, you don’t have to have a law degree, be an attorney, or be a judge to sit on the court.

Cruz is too valuable in the senate to put him as a SCOTUS


I love Cruz. I voted for him in the first primary over Trump. He’d be great.

And I could be wrong but finding another guy like Cruz in Texas has gotta be like changing a tire at the Goodyear factory.

Oh yeah, Cruz would be awesome in SCOTUS. Would always rule in favor of the highest bidder

Judge James Ho is the guy I've been pushing for some time. Read this interview with him and you get an idea of his views.


He's ceased hiring Colubmia grads after they allowed the pro-Palestine protests to disrupt classes and called the institution an incubator of bigotry. He's called illegal immigration an invasion that's directly linked to birthright citizenship. He's called out law professors for a degredation into political rather than intellectual behavior that leads to academic and cultural elites regarding the views of half the country as garbage. He's called out MSM outlets for undermining trust in the judiciary, saying its the MSM that shouldn't be trusted to report on the judiciary. He regards himself as an originalist. Clerked for Clarence Thomas.

He's the one.

We can’t afford waste an originalist pick on more toxic empathy.

If there were a Thatcher type in the picture then that’d be a different story.

I hope he serves as long as his mind stays sharp. He's been that great.

Are they really that valuable? Nothing gets passed with a 60 vote requirement. Those seats will always be Rs

You won't find a better conservative. They do not exist. The last thing the court needs is another conservative being lost to one of those conservative that somehow never votes in that manner on the big issues.
