“Trump should tweet that he will nominate Merrick Garland”
He shouldn’t tweet that. That’ll lock him in.
However, floating his name as a trial balloon would be awesome :-) ... my only concern about that is that the base would be pretty torqued off if they weren’t in on the joke :-).
Oh, also, Lagao got way too many Dem Senator votes for comfort when Trump first put her through the process.
Why so long?
Maybe because at that time they didn't think she was worth expending the political capital. The stakes are much higher now.
Correct.
What political capital?
They had no qualms about voting against many of his other judicial nominees.
That's not saying that it will necessarily be a woman, is it? It's a big mistake to limit yourself to female candidates for all the obvious reasons; namely, first and foremost, it's exactly what the rats want you to do because they know it increases the chance she'll turn around later and stab you in the back on some crucial issue before the court.
If there is one thing that I'd like to see front and center, in your face, is a ruthless probabilistic approach in all his decisions, so he would eke out every little extra percentage point increase in his success rate, to turn the odds in his and in the country's favor. And you don't do that by limiting yourself to female candidates.
Want to bet that almost no black youngsters have even heard of her? She is the kind of example they really need. She came up back when real racism was still common, and prevailed over it.
How many lives will our patience cost?
Britt Grant was Solicitor General of Georgia and one of the filers of the brief against an AR-15 ban.
What our political opponents (Democrats) think of Britt Grant:
Oppose the Confirmation of Britt Grant to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit
https://civilrights.org/resource/oppose-confirmation-britt-grant-u-s-court-appeals-eleventh-circuit/
https://www.afj.org/issue/gun-safety/
“Britt Grant (Eleventh Circuit) argued that a city ordinance prohibiting possession of AR-15 style weapons or large-capacity magazines violated the Second Amendment.”
More on that (other issues)...

She’d have been my pick from Trump’s short list, too.
But I don’t think Ivanka would go for a defense of large-capacity magazines! ;-)
What you said.
Don’t wait 5 or 6 days! Do it now!!!
Those 2 will vote to confirm her!
The section here on Larsen, and how she has channeled Scalia’s views, is reassuring:
She should visit the land of the rednecks anywhere out here. It’s not stylish. It’s even a human wasteland from the effects of two generations of widespread drug abuse and casual sex (thanks to the academic left). But with countless millions of standard capacity magazines distributed throughout rural and small town areas, it’s as peaceful as ever. Much safer than than the big cities that are full of old, beat up, stolen pistols.
That was a law that protected the community from disease by not having decaying corpses lying about too long, back before refrigeration and chemical preservation. It matters less now, except to the truly faithful.
Amen!
Go to PLAID.
Pedo Joe and Team Joe Blow would back Stacey Abrams for the SCOTUS.
