If the Democrats take the Senate then it will be judicial Armageddon even if Trump wins the Presidency.
Under the 20th Amendment, the new Congress takes office on January 3 but the new President does not take office until January 20. That means that if Trump is elected President and the Democrats retake the Senate, then Senate Majority Leader Chuckie Schumer will have almost three weeks to push through ratification of all of Obama’s nominees from the Supreme Court down to the district courts and all of the federal agencies and there will not be a damned thing that Trump or the Republican minority will be able to do to stop it.
When Harry Reid unilaterally abolished the Senate filibuster for all Presidential appointments except for the Supreme Court the ONLY reason that he left Supreme Court filibusters alone is because there were no Supreme Court vacancies at the time. Chuckie Schumer will unilaterally abolish the Supreme Court filibuster 5 minutes after he takes office.
It gets worse. Scalia’s Supreme Court seat is not the only Supreme Court seat at issue. The day after the election, far-left octogenarian Justices Ginsburg and Breyer will announce their retirements if it means that Obama can fill those seats as well. They probably already have the young far-left wing radical replacements picked out. That will mean a far-left wing Supreme Court majority of Obama appointees will be legislating every aspect of our lives for the next 30 years.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.

When pigs fly.
He is an ANTI-SECOND AMENDMENT RADICAL.
KRAPHAMMER LIKES HIM. JUST LIKE HE LIKED LORETTA LYNCH AND COMEY.
THAT IS INSANE!!!!!!!!
Jeff Flake isn’t an asshat, he’s a traitor firmly on the payroll and under the control of someone who’s pulling his strings.
“If Hillary Clinton is president-elect then we should move forward with hearings in the lame duck. That’s what I’m encouraging my colleagues to do.” Flake
IF.....IF....the witch wins I would fast track this dudes nomination. It is a total SHIT show at that point anyway. He is bad. There are worse.
Besides IF it happens it would be funny to watch the conflict between Obama and Clinton.
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO,
uniparty desperation.
Just Flake off Jeff.
Flake is morphing from just a flake, to a full blown hemorrhoid.

The list is huge, but after the election we need to settle the score no matter who wins.
Flake is worried that Hillary might not win.
Because they know Trump is getting in.
