That’s enough for me to question their choice.......
Is nudging normal turtle behavior?
NY Times —Who knows if this is true
McConnell getting his Deep State leash yanked by his masters!
It’s not Mitches job to “offer counsel” here, He’s only supposed to “advise and consent” after the President makes his selection.
Hardiman was the runner-up for the seat that Gorsuch got, Trump obviously already likes him.
mcturtle’s recommendation is immediate grounds to disqualify.
Gutless Turtle.
The NYT’s? I’m not convinced by their reports on...anything. Besides, as much as Mitch has infuriated me on countless issues, he got us Gorsuch, and he likely knows where he can get votes for these guys.
I like Kethledge the best, but expect the president is privy to information on these candidates that we’re not, so am going to trust his choice.
Mitch..
You Ignorant Slut....
If McConnel is for em. I’m agin em.
Kethledge is “outdoorsy,” and he has been hunting! Therefore, he’s a great Second Amendment pick.
Oh, wait. What? Uh, I’m not a girl, so I reject that and call it a fallacy.
The point is not to get any Supreme Court Justice confirmed.
The point is not to please the socially liberal Republicans of the Senate.
The point is to get a Supreme Court Justice who will rule in accordance with the Constitution.
They should take a FSD approach to decisions.
The SD stands for stare decisis.
I know it’s fashionable to hate stupid old mitch mcconnell, but he nuked the 60 vote rule and got us gorsuch; maybe we should at least listen to what the man has to say.
Screw McConnell. Trump moves toward him, we leave.
If McConnell recommends someone, run in the opposite direction. RINO
IF this is true, it should disqualify Kethledge and Hardiman. The Turtle would love for President Trump to appoint another Souter, so any potential nominee who receives the Turtle's approval should not receive that of President Trump.
The constitution says McConnell is supposed to give advice. That’s what he’s doing. I’m a constitutionalist even when it says something that’s tough to swallow. If Mitch says Kavenaugh will be too hard to confirm, potus needs to know that. If Hardiman and Kethledge can get through, then that needs to be considered as the advice of the senate.
Maybe Trump can go to someone else on the list of 25.
Probably fake news. But, if true then Trump should do the opposite of what Turtle recommends.
