If the GOP caves on this issue, itâs time for a Pitchforks GUNS-to-Washington Party. While we still have them....

Was this nut a tea-party candidate? So many false flags have gotten in with the pretend conservative theme.

He had better be posturing. So far he has shown himself to be a rino sellout and he has been in the Senate only slightly over a year.

Sure, it’s possible that aitch could nominate an original constructionist. It’s also about as likely that I’ll morph into a unicorn...

According to Wikipedia:
In Tillis's Republican primary bid, his candidacy had received endorsements from former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, current North Carolina Governor Pat McCrory, and former Presidential candidate Mitt Romney. Tillis's primary candidacy had also been endorsed by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Yes, that does explain everything.

Rip Obama’s left wing-liberal nominee through months of confirmation hearings. Then set the Senate vote on Obama’s nominee for the week AFTER election day. Make the election a referendum on whether a far left-wing oligarchy should rule over our lives for the next 30 years.
If Hillary wins and the Democrats take back the Senate then Obama’s nominee is probably no worse than what will get crammed down in January. Otherwise, vote the nominee down on a party line vote and let President Trump or Cruz pick a new nominee.

It does not need 60 to confirm or reject, just 51. The GOP could kill this nomination without a lick of help from a single Democrat.
