A lot of people have brought up the fact that they won’t vote for Trump if he’s the eventual nominee. I just want to put something in perspective.
Justice Scalia’s seat is vacant. Ginsberg is 82 years old, Kennedy is 79, Breyer is 77, and Thomas is 67. Nowadays, the data shows that the average age of a Supreme Court retirement or death occurs after 75.
These are 5 vacancies that will likely come up over the next 4-8 years. The next President will have the power to potentially create a 7-2 Supreme Court skewed in their ideology.
Think about that... 7-2. If the next President appoints 5 young justices, it will guarantee control of the Supreme Court for an entire generation. And 7-2 decisions will hold up much more over time than 5-4 decisions which are seemed to be lacking in mandate.
Hillary has made it clear she will use the Supreme Court to go after the 2nd Amendment. She has literally said that the Supreme Court was wrong in its Heller decision stating that the Court should overturn and remove the individual right to keep and bear arms. Period. as well as flood the U.S. with illegals.
Everyone saying that they won’t vote for one candidate or the other if they are the GOP nominee, please realize this: If Hillary Clinton wins and gets to make these appointments, you likely will never see another Conservative victory at the Supreme Court level for the rest of your life. Ever.
If you are a Conservative, a vote for anyone BUT the GOP nominee, whomever that will be, is a vote for Hillary Clinton.
THINK ABOUT THAT REAL HARD!
YEAH REAL HARD!!!
I have asked some Trump supporters just recently if they would vote for Ted Cruz, if he is the nominee. I don't even get a reply. What does that tell you?
Rush is gone. He is not relevant anymore. He is a Glen Beck. — Adios.
Thank you for your post. It’s truly a sobering perspective.
I’m for Cruz all the way and I can’t stand Trump BUT I vote for whoever is NOT the dim candidate.
