I saw Chris Matthews and his crew last night in full meltdown mode over this Supreme Court list. They thought it was terrible to be playing politics with the Supreme Court, that just illustrates how dishonest they are.

Looks as though all the Johnny-come-latelys are falling into line.

As usual, the rules are ALWAYS different for Democrats.

The democrats started the playing politics with the court when FDR packed the court!!! All republicans have been doing for the last 70-80 years is attempt to undo his work.

I agree that this will make a difference. Most people are already getting used to Trump as president. The conservatives who worry are mainly worried he’ll go soft on things they care about, and top of the list would be the Supremes. By putting his list out there, he makes that go away.

Getting out his proposals for cabinet members will go the rest of the way.

Trump is going to be president. And I think, overall, he is going to make us proud.

I’m not a fan of sour kraut. He voted for Obama and I suspect he’ll go for Hillary because Trump is sooooo low-class.

The Dumbos are peeing all over themselves with this list. Five former clerks of Justices Thomas and Scalia, and 6 others with numerous Very Conservative and CONSTITUTIONAL rulings on the Federal Court Level already.

He may end up going for Trump just because of these possible USSC justices to fill the seat left vacant by the passing of Justice Scalia.

There has been some slow news day nonsense about Trump not being willing to say his pick would definitely come from this list. It's illegal for a candidate to promise a job before an election (unless they are Democrats, Clintons, or some combination thereof).

Not yet. At or after the RNC Convention.

I agree with your sarcasm and implication that Kraut-man is a worthless POS. However, it is good to see the GOPe opposition to Trump slowly crumbling.

And that is what we are seeing here.

It doesn't make it go away. It goes away when he follows through. People like me have a problem with Trump, because of his past. As the verse goes, "You shall know them by their fruits." Trump's basket is full of liberal left of center fruit, and a lot of unsupported talk about being right of center. Until he follows through, many of us will be waiting for the other shoe to fall.

Even with reservations, he's still the better pic over any "thing" the liberals put on the ballot.
