Trump Jr says Gaines is a go! They worked it out!!

I imagine Mr.Daines did not want to go down in history as the man who was responsible for Brett Kavenaugh not being appointed to the US Supreme Court.
It must involve Air Force one, to get the Senator to his daugher’s wedding after the vote.
Can a Senator vote in advance on legislation or nominations when he has an unavoidable personal commitment?
William B. Gaines.
Used to publish Mad Magazine.
Deceased.
An old girlfriend of mine in the ‘70s used to room with his daughter, Wendy, at the University of Wisconsin, Madison.
The last sentence is true.
Meh.
Mitch can hold the vote open- heck, Mitch can vote against Kav and call the vote again Sunday.
Anti-climax.
Imagine going through all this pain and suffering just to put another David Souter on the bench?
David Souter would have withdrawn.
The fact that Bush was making calls on his behalf gives me pause.
But this guy will have a chip on his shoulders for the next 40 years because of all this.
Plus in the late 90s he called Hillary a bitch. He is NO friend of the Clintons
Darn and I was putting him down. Now I have to go and put him up!
I believe Trump had his 737 on standby :)
Bump
I remember his name on the masthead quite well, along with Harvey Kurtzman, Wallace Wood, Jack Davis, et al. I started reading that thing back in about 1953, which probably explains a lot about my mental condition!
Would have been nice of him to make that CRYSTAL clear to everyone, when he first opened his yap about his daughter's wedding.
Instead, he sent half the country into an 11th hour panic.
Yeah, he's probably solid. If he was going to be a stealth liberal, I suppose someone would've leaked this to the Democrats and they'd have waltzed him through.
The fact that he could shift priorities at the last minute is worrying. Mitch should assign a ‘minder’ to get a weather eye on certain weak links. Someone like Flake should go nowhere unchaperoned. He is weak, and can be bullied. Everyone knows that now.
I’m guessing somebody realized “hey, the president owns a private jet ...let’s do this!”
Wendy was a nice gal.
Like the Ford hearings this was staged. Nothing but a build up for a drumroll.
It better not. Air Force One isn't Trump's private property.
We'd have a conniption if a Democrat president did that.
no. Constitution bans voting by proxy.
Annnnnnd now the Left is trying to figure out that wedding schedule so that they can ruin the wedding while trying to rig the vote in their favor.
