No other candidate on Trumps shortlist better satisfies every one of Trumps litmus tests, Fallon, a former aide to former Attorney General Eric Holder and ex-Hillary Clinton campaign press secretary, added. Those litmus tests will now be an anchor around the feet of this nominee.

What “showdown” with Mueller? That crooked cop has NOTHING. why else did he shove Manafort into solitary confinement? Because he’s trying to coerce him into giving him something — ANYTHING — to use against Trump as the midterms approach.
a crazy comment if ever there was one
PDJT can fire Mueller and Rosenweig anytime he wants
( I wish he would!)
PDJT doesn’t need a court nominee to do anything to Mueller
it’s Jesus, Joseph and Mary
Blah blah blah
Dems in 1960s: Russia is our enemy. We must have a Cold War.
Dems in 2008: We need a Russian reset.
Dems in 2012: Hey Mitt, the 80s called and want its foreign policy back.
Dems in 2016-18: Russia a our enemy. We have to stop them from electing Trump.
The more things change, the more Dems stay the same. Consistently stupid.

Dersh says Trump is taking the long view, and expects to put 5 (FIVE!) on the Court:
Alan Dershowitz said Monday President Trump was approaching the process of selecting a replacement for Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy with the mindset that he’ll likely have the opportunity to nominate up to five justices to the highest court in the country.
“I think the president is looking at the big picture,” Dershowitz told CNN of a phone conversation he had with Trump a few days ago.
Dodged the MOAB with Shitlerey, we did ...
So he wrote the article when Obama was in office. I wonder if it had anything to do with lawsuits about Obama’s birth certificate, citizenship. The Dems probably loved it back then.
They are being as creative as a lot of FReepers.....
“Obstruction of Hillary” is a capital felony!
Fallon is a kook, not interested in his writings or thoughts.
