Remember also that Barrett is taking all of the heat from Democrats, because she is most well known for that one position.

Well, that and her written and cited opinion in favor of recusing herself from any ruling on the death penalty. Other than that, there’s no record of anything from her on the Second Amendment, etc.

“McCain. Collins. Cornyn. And there will be others.“

Corny? Umm, don’t think so. He would have to leave Texas if he should vote no to a Trump SCOTUS nominee.....

“Any idea when?”

“But I’m not dead yet!”

“Shut up. Yes you are.” (Smack!)

... from San Antonio

I agree that Cornyn will vote for Trump’s selection because of exactly what you state. But don’t believe for a minute that Cornyn isn’t working to undermine Trump at every opportunity. He is very disdainful of his constituents and rarely returns letters that are not simple boiler-plate ramblings.

The article says if he (Cornyn) was nominated, he would say no.

Maybe. But isn’t it amazing that the gopers who willingly let dims have their picks cause its their right, suddenly get all introspective about their own president! Trump has shown what a bunch of liars the gopers are, they say what they have to, to get elected, and that’s it!

One would be inclined to think that POTUSDJT already has all the deals he needs in the bag to deal with chickenhsit RINOs.

Manchin, et al.

Let's see how it plays out after he nominates the nice Catholic lady with seven kids from Notre Dame.

And the ‘rats are having a fit that the Rs are getting to make the first best, really significant use of the rule which they themselves, the ‘rats, enacted, lol. Harry Reid was interviewed and said that he didn’t regret doing it. I love the way that their self-serving acts often (not often enough) bite them in their azzes.

I don’t know, I’ve been reading some statements from McConnell in which he sounds pretty gleeful that he’s gettng the opportunity to make this use of the rule which the ‘rats insisted on. I don’t think it’s even a political matter with him, I think he’s just gleeful that Harry Reid’s own rule, which almost all ‘rats supported because they always think short-term, is about to boomerang on them.

Never deal with that bast@rd. After getting his wife named all bets are off. She would vote with the Rats as often as Juan including voting against Trump’s SC nominee. McCain wants to be able to foil the president and conservatives from the grave for two years. If necessary delay the pick until January when you have more Republican senators or wait for the traitor to die, may he burn in hell.

There are senators up for reelection that will be in trouble regardless of how they vote.

A best course would be not to vote. That increases the Republican margin with out actually committing
