Horrible.

That means Trump will likely have gone 0-3 for placing genuine conservatives on the Court. Not half a Thomas or Scalia among them.

If she’s the nominee I seriously want Trump to make the announcement in Spanish. LOL.

Lagoa sailed through the Senate with an 80-15 vote to the 11th Ciruit Court of Appeals.

That means she’s not actually a conservative.

Let’s just hope then it is some whispered campaign BS to try to juice the FL vote.

only 10 months on the 11th circuit court and has not been vetted as much as Barrett (a SCOTUS finalist in 2018) means a slow confirmation.

A good pick for a vacancy in 2022 if one happens.

You seem to be going from thread to thread posting the same drivel.

No it's these idiot pundits that have to write about everything trying to pretend they have a scoop and get some clicks.

It ain’t so until you hear it directly from Trumps lips. Otherwise it is known as a fake diversionary tactic.

This is horrible if true. This is pandering for Hispanic votes. He needs to nominate Amy Coney Barrett, a former Antonin Scalia clerk. She’s Catholic and anti-abortion that will drive liberals to suicide.
