Who gives a rat’s ass about the Never Trumpers at the NR?
so....Mr. French thinks he could be a “solid to excellent pick”, and yet he is going to whine about him?
Amy Coney Barrett will be RBG’s replacement.
In the words of the Alt-Right, French is a “cuck.”
He laments Kavanaugh as the “safe” and “establishment” pick, which is very ironic as French is a poster-boy never-trumper who has promoted the safe, spineless, non-conservative, RINO establishment point of view since the day Trump came on the scene.
Barrett will be next. NR can suck it.
Right make a choice on an unknown. Trump is not stupid, obviously every single person in DC and around the world for that matter, aren’t even in his league.
Kavenaugh was the safe pick. Hardiman probably would have been good too. Barrett was not a safe pick. And no it would have NOT ignited the base.
I’m tired of reading these idiots.
Can’t really even handle the irony of David French talking about this pick not being Trump-y enough. Smh.
1. Did Barrett even want the job at this point in her life?
2. Doesn't Kavanaugh's lengthy track record give him a big edge in terms of reliability and predictability?
Oh gosh. Oh, gosh, yes.
The fact he doesn't totally hate the Kavanaugh pick is concerning.
The Trump Prophesies are predicting The president will pick a total of 5 To the Supremes before leaving office.
Right......
RBG is on her last legs.
The perfect time for a woman appointee is when RBG kicks off.
RE: Barrett will be next. NR can suck it.
But will it be under Trump’s first term?
President Trump is privy to information that almost nobody else is. And he has access to astute and experienced advisors for the asking.
This is a man who almost always plans far ahead so his strategy is usually not apparent in the beginning.
I don’t think there is much room for criticism here.
RE: The perfect time for a woman appointee is when RBG kicks off.
But what if she lives to be like Strom Thurmond and refuses to leave?
The Never Trumpers are upset that Trump has set up another win here. I preferred Barrett, myself, too, but tactics here are perfect. For example, I presume Anthony Kennedy may introduce BK to the Judiciary committee. Even the moronic Chris Stirewalt on FNC now says Kavanaugh will get 54-55 votes.
While I ageee wholeheartedly with David French about Judge Barrett hes failing to see the political reality that many of us realized last night. The GOP only has a two vote advantage in a 51-49 Senate and at least a half dozen Republicans cant be trusted. Judge Barrett will eventually be on the court, but she would most likely have been defeated this time around. The political situation in the Senate will be much better after the November vote!
If she shows by her judicial record in the meantime that she is worthy. Someone just recently named to the bench shouldn’t be the nominee—even if female.
We had all kinds of assurances that Souter was a real conservative too—and how did that work out for the country?
Strom could wing it....
You cant wing it on the USSC....takes a lot of effort, even to tell the clerks what you want.
