Why slander the party supporting Trumps nomination. Fragmenting the lefts opposition is what they do, not what we do. The enemy is the left, the enemy is the old media empire, the enemies are the Clinton and Obama crime families, and the enemies are the foreign invaders plotting mass murder in the name of Islam.

I think I heard Graham say yesterday that we can't continue to have a Senate where Democrats always get their nominees confirmed, but Republicans never get theirs confirmed.
I'll give him credit, Graham has always said that Presidents deserve to have their nominees voted on, which is why he always voted to give Democrat nominees their vote.

Agree Timmy. Too many freepers expend too much energy attacking the wrong party, something cleverly influenced by the real enemies on the left.

Why slander the party supporting Trumps nomination. Exactly. McConnell has been great on this. And kudos to McCain for doing the right thing.

Shocking as hell that McCain is supporting this....Mich better look for a snake in the grass...McSwain can NOT be trusted.....

All you need is one Democrat (Manchin?) and you can claim Gorsuch was approved on a bi-partisan vote. Republicans need to play the game to win.

Heitkamp has also said she will vote for Gorsuch, so yeah it’s definitely bi-partisan.

Why is McCain the person that the media ALWAYS turns to for commentary on Republican efforts in the senate...?

"U.S. Sen. John McCain on Monday announced that he will support an upcoming effort by his fellow Republicans to win Senate confirmation of Judge Neil Gorsuch." Hmmm...I wonder exactly which ones would own up to being John McPain's fellow republicans..??
That man is a genuine snake of the first order.....

Sen. McConnell has been very strong since Justice Scalia passed away. But for his steadfastness, Merrick Garland would have been appointed to the Supreme Court already.

The filibuster is DEAD ten minutes after the Democrats get their next Senate majority.
That’s so obvious, even McCain gets it.
To: BlueYonder
Backing the anti-Assad, anti-Russia jihadists in Syria paid for by Gulf Arab money could cause one to think Senator McCain is really a “KSA Senator” as in “Kingdom of Saudi Arabia”.

Sounds like it is pretty much a done deal, now that McCain, Graham, and Collins have all come out saying they would support the “nuclear option.” The only remaining question mark is Murkowski, but even without her it passes with 51.

I heard that Collins was on board with this, and that Murkowski was the hold out.

McShame and his Squeeze doing the right thing? Get prepared for some severe earthquakes!
To: jalisco555
This tells me that McCain knows that the nuclear option will be used so he wants to be on the winning side. If he thought it wasn’t he would oppose. Slimy political bastard traitor.
