PHEW!

But I’m sorry, I don’t share people’s enthusiasm for Ted Cruz as a potential replacement.

Somebody else from Trump’s list please.

A New Mexico lawyer filed suit in August, seeking to force Republican leaders in the Senate to act on the nomination, arguing that they had “created a constitutional crisis that threatens the balance and separation of power among our three branches of government.”

Leave it to the rats to stretch the law.

Bye Bye Garland.

Maybe Garland can find a job in a Bath House.

If the Senate decides not to act, nobody's going to stop them.

Senator Cruz shares one disqualifying defect with Judge Garland: A legal degree from the once-respected Harvard Law School.

Cruz is proved himself to be a malignant narcissist—same as Obama.

He would do whatever he chose, as he pursued his way to his next ambition, whatever that might be—head of the UN, or God, perhaps.

Also vacant are 81 U.S. District and 13 Appeals court seats to be filled by Trump.

I don’t know that a SCOTUS seat precludes a Presidential run. So run, and if you get nominated (or win), then resign. If not, go back to being a justice. That’s what Senators do.

I don;t see Ted as being a threat to Trump in 2020.

with the messy way Ted ran his campaign, and the way Trump is already showing he means business, I think many conservatives would be fools to try to oust Trump if Trump makes good on campaign promises. The country should be in a lot better shape by 2019 and Ted wouldn’t stand a chance if the country is doing well.

If the Democrats really wanted him they could have fought. They could have filibustered every Senate action until a vote was held on him.

Cruz as a threat to Trump in 2020? LOL!

First of all, I would not be the least bit surprised to see Trump leave after 4 years of swamp-draining, and pass it off to Mike Pence for 8 years.

Either way, Cruz will be lucky to win Texas in 2018.

Merrick Garland is the modern day Abe Fortas of Supreme Court nominees.

I wonder about Cruz. Until a few months before he announced he run for the presidency, he apparently didn’t even know he was Canadian.

Surely, somewhere along the way in his education or early jobs or such, he had to produce a birth certificate.

Maybe he isn’t so sharp.

More BS about Lyn’ Ted. He has ZERO chance of any court seat or of any public role. He needs to resign and find a new, private career. People that keep wanting to throw his name out need to reflect that he lied about his citizenship, told truth then lied about is eligibility, lied about finance sources of his senate campaign, lied about his insurance, etc. Further, look at his association with Glen Beck, his kids that shrink from his, his wife that takes off and picked up on highway in mental breakdown (maybe for having to deal with him?). If Lyn’ Ted had any self-respect, he’d resign, get help, mend his family, and maybe return to Canada or Cuba.

Garland never had a chance anyway. He apparently has an occasional rational thought, making him unacceptable to the majority of leftists.
