Victory lap: Trump to swear in Kavanaugh in prime-time ceremony
washingtonexaminer.com ^ | October 08, 2018 | by Robert Donachie

President Trump will ceremonially swear in Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh at a prime-time event in the East Room of the White House on Monday evening.

The ceremony follows perhaps the most contentious confirmation battle for a Supreme Court nominee in history and the administration is using Monday evening to show voters they can make good on its promises.

In front of a room full of reporters, television cameras and Republican lawmakers at 7:00 p.m. Monday, the president will stand next to Kavanaugh and present him to the nation as one of the crowning achievements of his first two years in office.

Trump did not give the same treatment to Justice Neil Gorsuch, whose confirmation process was far less controversial. The president swore Gorsuch in at an 11 a.m. ceremony in the Rose Garden.

The formal swearing in of Kavanaugh wasn’t a public event, so he deserves an opportunity to be presented to the nation in this way. The dems would feel a certain level of vindication if the only swearing in of Justice Kavanaugh was quick and private with only a few photos.

Kav fought, Kav won, Kav gets his time in the sun.

And it’s the left that wants to try to foment division between Gorsuch and Kav by pointing out the difference in treatment. FReepers shouldn’t fall for it.

LEFTNEWS won’t carry it live; they don’t want to help boost the economy by sending droves of butthurt leftists out to by brand new TVs.

I hope they are all happy and relaxed tonight. The older daughter looked like she was showing some of the stress on Saturday.

You have 24 hours to celebrate, and then it’s time to start preparing for the next game.

Hmmmm. I wonder how many TVs will be destroyed by the hateful lefties.

Lefties always helping the economy with their destructive screeds.

I don’t see this as “rubbing the left’s face in it” as much as “business as usual.” We should carry on as we should, despite the anarchy perpetrated by the leftist terrorists.

I must say, the cheeseburger on her arm seems rather appropriate. That being said, I’ve got one more in the refrigerator. I’ll have it now to celebrate our newest Supreme Court Justice.

I agree and I was sorry to see her wearing black. She looked so somber. Girls can be cruel and she may have encountered schoolmates that she thought were friends. Live will never be the same for them but I hope they will rise above it and reclaim their serenity and joyfulness.

“Even Reagan wasn’t this bold.”

In Reagan’s day it was far less well known that demonrats are Evil. Reagan felt constrained to treat them as his “esteemed colleagues across the aisle.”
