I don’t understand why it HAS to be a woman.
I AM a woman; and I think the most suitable, accomplished, and available INDIVIDUAL should be the one nominated.
We shouldn’t be playing to the feminist termagants, and kow-towing to their dictates.
The best person should be nominated, and confirmed.
It’s far easier to go after a male candidate and fabricate sexual abuse stories than a female candidate. It limits the narratives they can use, although I think they’d go after her faith instead.
Trump also said he prefers women to men, so... -shrug-
I’m also a woman, for the record.
I agree, it should be the strongest individual.
If it's not a woman there will be a price to pay because of the election coming up. If the lawyer party succeeds in destroying the reputation of Trump's first nominee, it will be after the election and Trump will be free politically to nominate anyone.
