Kavanaugh was picked by Justice Kennedy.

I never heard this before. How does Greenfield know this? I seriously doubt Trump would kowtow to Kennedy's wish, plus Q said something about Kennedy not exactly leaving on his own terms or something of that sort. I of course agree with everything else Greenfield says.

I remember reading that part of pushing Kennedy out was having him recommend a successor.

I am so wondering. Trump said a while back just wait and see my pick for SC the demorats can’t turn him down. I had no idea of who Kavansugh was at the time.

Perhaps most important, Trump used the nomination of Neil Gorsuch to demonstrate to Kennedy how his own legacy could be preserved. He ensured that Kennedy was involved in swearing in Gorsuch, who used to clerk for him—something that gave Kennedy “virtually parental pride,” Turley told me, describing Kennedy’s obvious delight at the ceremony’s after-party. After Gorsuch was sworn in, the White House made sure to float two more potential Supreme Court candidates—Judge Brett Kavanaugh of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and Judge Raymond Kethledge—both of whom also clerked for Kennedy.

Kavanaugh and Gorsuch Both Went to the Same Elite Prep School

****** The above is what makes me unsettled about Kavansugh. And I am not understanding the Jesuit religious aspect I know Catholic, what is Jesuit part...

Have to run BBL...
