They’re finding out they have many many Trump supporters among their constituents.
Time to get things done....YOU THERE in Washington D.C.
>>They’re finding out they have many many Trump supporters among their constituents.
Uhuh. Trying to push the vote before "conservative" sheeple have time to observe what the spiritual foundation for Gorsuch's worldview is, and isn't.
...Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch? He belongs to a far-left church that embraces marriage redefinition, gun control, and the theory of man-caused global warming.
He belongs to St. John's Episcopal Church in Boulder, Colo., the Episcopal diocese of Colorado confirmed on Wednesday. Church bulletins show that the judge has been an usher three times in recent months. His wife Louise frequently leads the intercessory prayer and reads the weekly Scripture at Sunday services, and his daughters assist in ceremonial duties during church services as acolytes.
The first word that St. John's uses to describe itself on its website and Facebook page is "inclusive," and the church is led by a female rector. On its website, the church encourages members to write letters to Congress asking for actions addressing climate change.
That's not all. Its website also calls for members to lobby their congressmen for more gun control.
Rev. Susan Springer has said she is pro-gay marriage and offers blessings to same-sex couples
The church's Rev. Ted Howard also signed a letter slamming the 'disrespectful rhetoric' directed at Islam as Trump floated a ban on Muslim immigrants[.] ...
What's driving this is the Democrats' recognition that they have a fundamental problem in the U.S. Senate that isn't going to change for a while. Even if you go back to the 2012 election, you'll see that Barack Obama only won 26 states in an effective landslide over Mitt Romney. In 2016, Hillary Clinton only won 20 states. And in the Senate, the Democrats only picked up two seats in an election cycle where the Republicans were defending 24 incumbent seats compared to only 10 for the Democrats.
What this means is that the Democrats will have a hard time maintaining a Senate majority over the long term, and can only hope to block the GOP through Senate maneuvers like the cloture vote and filibuster process. What Gillebrand fears most is that they'll make a stand on a Supreme Court nominee who isn't very meaningful (i.e., he's replacing Scalia and won't shift the balance of the court), and end up having the "nuclear option" deployed by the Republicans ... thereby turning the Democrats into an irrelevant minority for a long time.
“They’re finding out they have many many Trump supporters among their constituents.”
Nah. She is realizing that Trump could seat up to three justices and if they go nuclear now, the rats are going to be SOL on the others.
Gillibrand keeps sending me fund raising emails disguised as questionnaires. I have been answering them and keep getting more, I know she isn’t reading them, maybe nobody is.
I still refute all their liberal logic and positions. I always praise Trump, attack planned parenthood, attack liberal immigration/refugee policies.
As her constituent, I tell her I will not only vote against her, but also will fund her opponent giving her NOTHING!
