Here’s a scenario we all could live with:

1) Kavanaugh goes down in flames...causing

2) A royally ticked off Trump (and other Trumpian luminaries) to go on a pre-November campaign rampage...resulting in

3) A democrat bloodbath of epic proportions...leading to

4) Legislation proposing the expansion of the Supreme Court from nine to eleven seats (too many cases for only nine, you know)...followed by

5) President Trump naming enough people from his list so that nobody cares if Ruth Ginsburg lives to be 150 years old.

(And best of all, Kavanaugh gets another bite of the apple to fill one of the two new seats!

The thought of THAT scenario should scare enough dems to vote for Kavanaugh, making the final count somewhere around 99-1

With the Supreme Court controlled by the manhaters we’re seeing and hearing, legislation without their approval will have no effect. It will be shot down in the courts. Leftist courts controlled by those harpies will also completely ignore the Constitution.

Didn't the Doofus on the Dime attempt that trick back in 1937 (he was pushing for 15, not 11)?

Packing the Court is like the Senate nuclear option, only orders of magnitude worse. It's a slippery slope. I mean, Ruthie might not make it to 150, but there is no reason there couldn't be 151 justices! And what makes you think they'd be conservative? The whole notion of judicial review would become a joke.

I dont see Trump going to bat for kavanaugh .. and if the gop had defended Judge, as strong as the dems attacked, Kavanaugh would have been IN.

"And best of all, Kavanaugh gets another bite of the apple to fill one of the two new seats!"

If Judge Kavanaugh is rejected, there won't be another honest Supreme Court justice who will be nominated or willing to be nominated. Besides, the clucking for Barrett in both parties will immediately be a deafening clamor. Why? *Because she's a woman*, has the shortest record of decisions and...

...we would have a foreign influence in our Supreme Court. It was difficult to be heard under the Amy Coney-Barrett din before Kavanaugh was nominated.
