Sounds silly to me...
I think he should nominate her because she was not put on the bench by George Bush..
And the court needs people from all over the country not just Yale and Harvard...
Last we need a consertive women...Trump can do a man when Ginsberg is gone..
I get that she’s pro-life but what else is she good on? Is she pro-2A? What about illegal aliens?
Whoever President Trump selects will have to have a proven track record in both arenas.
Barrett is a candidate with only 7 months on the bench and no track record on immigration—not good enough when the future of our Republic is at stake.
She clerked for Scalia and strongly believes in his judicial philosophy. That is great reason she should be the choice.
That’s what I want to know. I worry that she’s a one issue ‘conservative’ and will be a moderate squish (or worse) on everything but abortion.
Sanders, Nielsen, Melania, Bondi. This will complete the War on women meme. Very useful for the mid terms.
The anti-Catholic rhetoric will also sink the Dems. The pro-life base should be energized.
13th “reason,” will Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski vote to confirm her?
No one cares what the author thinks or what we think. No one.
“3.) Seasoned Democrat politicians have attacked her Catholicism”
Aren’t five Catholics (and three Jews) already on the SCOTUS. And yes. Gorsuch says he’s an Episcopalian, but that is a distinction without a different theologically speaking.
So how about a “garden variety” Protestant Christian for a change?
She has been accused of virtue signaling with her mixed race family and adopted Haitians third worlders. The virtue signaling with the "childdddddddddren" meme makes me suspect she will be a squish on the Second Amendment, not to mention immigration. She is already Okey-Dokey with foreigners invading her own household.
but Trump will not read this.
And she’s pretty
The rest of the women on the court are homely
Ginsburg was cute as young woman
Yes it’s true
My first question. If the answer is “no” or even “meh”, then look elsewhere.
“no track record on immigration”
She chose to adopt two foreign children (Haiti) over adopting two American children.
She chose foreigners over Americans.
I don’t like her.
It's not that that's the "single" issue or the "only" issue, it's that it's the fundamental issue. The basis for all the others.
If you don't even know that every human being is endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, you literally have no foundation on which to build or defend a Constitution.
Give me a candidate from whatever faith community who has a strong grasp on the basics, and I will come out for them with a bass drum, a megaphone, and an 8-column headline in All-caps.
We never know how they will turn out...it is a craps shoot..
I cannot wait till Ginsberg is gone...there heads will really explode
It is well known the left ‘fears her’.
The concern is: will she buckle under what is sure to be intense pressure to go PC?
That may not be the only issue some have with Amy Barrett, but this one is huge.
Bingo!
Short term she may hold steady conservative. Long term not so sure. I say no womens. Nominate Judge Pirro or Laura Ingraham might be more confident in the long run.
