Let’s see - we have Obamacare subsidies rules legal and gay marriage ruled constitutional.

And we’re afraid the Court will become liberal?

I am enjoying it.

That joy will be short lived.

Sorry Laz...don't mean to break into your hobby shop. But I just can't resist.

Newbie blood is so sweet.

How can Trump be a RINO as he has never been in politics or office?
McShame=RINO
Linda Gram=RINO
Jebber Bush=RINO
Crispy Cream=RINO

I don’t think that word means what you think!

Roosevelt didn’t follow through because the SCOTUS buckled before the threat and stopped declaring his unconstitutional socialist programs unconstitutional.

There is no such thing as politically untenable.

You have the Army and the DOJ, you do what you want.

Ben Carson needs to STFU. Nobody is trying to Herman Cain him out of the race.

John Roberts was a real fine choice.

So tired of this s***. The Supreme Court is lost already. Deal with it, or the mob will.

If our guys continue to expose the GOP for what it is there won’t be a third party as our guys will be left standing as the real GOP! Just taking back what was stolen....

Re: “Romney would have repeated Reagan’s landslide if the nation still had the demographic mix of 1980.”

Most people are not aware that 91% of Blacks and 66% of Hispanics voted AGAINST Reagan in his 1984 landslide reelection.

And Reagan could not be elected governor of California in 2012 with those numbers - thanks to his own “Reagan Amnesty” of 1986!

Ben, hate to break it to you, but the Supreme Court is already lost.

Did you miss the month of June, 2015?

You're not going to be the next President, and if Jeb is the GOP nominee, you will be witnessing Hillary inauguration on 1/20/17.

He is assuming Trump won’t win as 3rd party.

Your namesake should show you to have the least such concern.

Judging from his comments regarding buying and selling politicians, he’d only nominate those who would rule in ways that would benefit him financially. With corruption like that their political leanings aren’t very relevant.

Who appoints the SC justices is not what puts them on the bench, Mr. Carson. It’s the rinos who will confirm them.

And if a rino is in the white house, the democrats will get who they want on the court.

The audience was mostly made up of rinos. Look up what Santorum said about it.

The fact Trump hired this Stone guy in the first place, males me scratch my already well worn scalp.

This guy believes, and wrote a book pushing the idea that LBJ had Kennedy killed. Is he Oliver’s brother?

Wonder if he also believes we faked the moon landings?

You know, this is a problem. When we pick Presidents BASED upon whom they will nominate to the Supreme Court we’re dead. The Supreme Court cannot and should not be making laws. When the Court has become so powerful that ideology matters then we’ve already lost. When republicans base their candidate on how much it will mean to the supreme court then it’s obvious that they’ve given up on constitutional government.

SSSHHH!!!

Don’t say this on FR. The Trump people say he can’t be bought...dont ya know?!

To which they’d respond, he isn’t being bought, he is buying influence.

Besides, EVERYONE does it...and he had to do it for business!

There, covered the talking points...but you make an excellent point!
