ROMNEY COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR: Reports that Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) will NOT vote to confirm a Trump Supreme Court nominee are “GROSSLY FALSE”
(Excerpt) Read more at twitter.com ...
Yes. Liberal credentials seem more or less a guarantee of what you will get, but I don’t see how to sort out which of the conservatives stay the course and which do not.
“Actually how about Mitt as a Supreme Court nominee?”
To paraphrase Winston Churchill, “An empty cab arrived, and Mitt Romney got out.”
If I was President I’d disqualify any prospective SCOTUS candidate with a law degree from an Ivy League school.
Leftists call black cops “racists and white privileged”...so it’s guaranteed ACB will be labeled a racist.
How about not basing the nominee on the pigment of their skin or type of genitalia, but rather who would make the best Justice?
Normally, I would agree, but if we don’t want another another long drawn out process, it has to be a woman or the liberals will find someone to say he sexually assaulted them 30 years ago.
Amy is suppose to be a solid conservative. The liberals will be in meltdown over her nomination.
When Trump is reelected, we can afford to fight the lies that will be told for any new male Supreme Court justice.
They knew Ginsberg was dying. McConnell knew who would vote for and against. He would not have made such a confident statement on the night of Ginsberg’s death if he did NOT have the votes.
Oh don’t worry she flashed somebody when she was 6 yrs old
I pray it is Barrett
LEO TERELL ——— he, he, heeeee
Trump will get at least two other appointments in his second term replacing Thomas, Sotomayor, and Alito.
And perhaps increasing the court to 11? And adding two more conservatives.
If Roberts is shown to be compromised ethically he might have to appoint a chief justice.
Also will be time to bring conservative Asian on to the bench.
I think he'd love to pull a McCain.
Yeah well Mitt better watch it.
Much of the crap he has done will be forgotten by Utah next time he runs.
But if he votes against or abstains from voting for a Trump nominee to replace RBG, he’s gonna have a BIG problem. The Mormons can be squishy on some things but not abortion. At all.
I’m not going to type out what my landlords’ reaction was when I told them the news this evening. (so the words “cheering” “confetti” and “high fives” are not in this post)
No kiddin'? I did not know that until now.
Anyway to answer the implied question, yes they will try to destroy Judge Barrett; just the solitary fact that she's a devout Catholic is enough for them. They'll find a way to spin it into something resembling legalese, but that's the crux of the matter.
They will hate her and try to destroy her, and their right hand lead will be Judge Barrett's Catholicism.
Which makes her, or someone else exactly like her the perfect nominee, IMO.
Great phrase, "BLM orcs"! However, I never underestimate the dem/soc/coms (DSC's) to dig deep enough to find some dirt, no matter how benign it is.
Nah, the POS prolly thinks Trump’s going to nominate him!
How about not basing the nominee on the pigment of their skin or type of genitalia, but rather who would make the best Justice?

In a righteous world that would be normal procedure, but we don’t live in such a world. Consequently (1) political factors such as skin color and genitalia are relevant considerations, and (2) experience has confirmed that picking someone thought to make the best Justice is analogous to a crap shoot!
Already said she is a no vote, didn’t I read somewhere the President is refusing to support her re-election?
But no, there is no “virtue signaling”.

I suspect your son’s experience is atypical, but in any case it is what it is. Meanwhile see below, posted by another Freeper re this issue.

Obviously, you don’t have a good grasp of Leftism. Adopting children of color is the most racist thing a person can do! It robs them of their ethnicity and denies them their rich cultural heritage.
Seriously, there is a huge effort to limit cross-culture adoptions; however, there are very few minorities who adopt outside of relatives. Leftists would rather see children languish in foster care than see them adopted into a conservative family.
Mittens wants to pull a mccain and do a dramatic “thumbs-down” when the vote is taken.
