Gosh, didn’t see that coming.

I was not all that surprised, disappointed but not surprised at all. We now have a 5-2 court sometimes 5-3 so we are much worse off than we were before Trump. Remember we need Mitch for the Judges, well we got them.

Alito, Gorsuch, and Thomas were in favor of looking at the cases. Kavanugh and Barret caved.

Kavanaugh DISSENTED, along with Alito, Gorsuch and Thomas.

I suspect Barrett did not participate, resulting in an evenly split vote.

Kavanuagh was threatened as was his family during the hearings. He is scared to death but that is no excuse for his cowardice.

“Heaven forfend that you concede that President Trump made a botch of most of his hiring, particularly his judges.”

You are a troll and a stupid one at that. Trump was and is NOT a politician and had absolutely no way to know who would be a “reliable” Conservative choice for the Judiciary. Like all before him he depended on good advice from those who were supposed to be carrying out his agenda.

In corporate America where Trump spent his life he would have never allowed this to go unpunished and would have cleaned house in the 1st 3 months. His big mistake was he trusted in those he thought loved America as he does.

Your Monday morning quarterbacking only highlights you as a
troll and a fool.

Kavenaugh already showed his colors in the past. Now we know for sure that ACB is bad news too. I already guessed it based on the Texas vs PA case. I hate to say. But Trump really screwed us here. The country will never recover from this.

Kavanaugh is a Bushie, and Barrett was pressured into not getting involved in anything Trump related during her hearing. At least Gorsuch voted to protect the Constitution in the PA case.

The Court decided to be Pontius Pilate and just wash their hands over Constitutional issues that are controversial, leaving local Dems to ignore the Constitution however they feel like.

SCOTUS...
Clearly, although the final nail in the Republic occurred many decades ago, SCOTUS is having a field day throwing dirt & urine into the grave on top of the coffin...

Exactly right. I believe when the feds make their move against the Second Amendment, the Tenth Amendment will be exercised in red states.

Not only the Second but every right of the states to run their own according to that particular states needs.....like Texas and their energy needs, border protection to name a couple..........in other words tell the Feds to ESAD!!!

Kavanaugh DISSENTED

*********************************
Do you have the link for that? We are talking about today’s decision. From what I read if they had four justices then it would have moved forward but they didn’t. And why wasn’t Barrett part of the decision?

“I was not all that surprised”

Oh, you’re one of those aspergers who don’t get sarcasm. So I’ll say this directly: you should be embarrassed, and not respond to other people’s comments.

Well, it’s certainly out cold and on life support.

They haven’t pulled the plug yet, but I can see them smiling
and wringing their hands in anticipation.

They are Bush loyalists. Both cut their teeth on Bush V Gore.

Looks like Kavanaugh and Barrett are shaping up to be big disappointments.


They take turns stabbing us in the back. Gorsuch is no better.

There was never any evidence these were “Trump judges.” They were mainline GOP credentialed picks. They won’t change their behavior until the GOP pays for it at the ballot box.

Trump needs to forget running in 2024 and tell us the truth about the bipartisan coup now. It will make him look weak so it is understandable why he avoids the topic.

Kavanaugh DISSENTED,
*******************************
The text below from the Wash Post says otherwise. Kavanaugh is just one more of Trump’s busts.

‘It takes the votes of four justices to accept a case for review. Although changing election rules because of the pandemic has been a theme of Republican challenges in the wake of Trump’s defeat, the rest of the conservative majority was silent.

Neither Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. nor two of the three justices nominated by Trump signed on to dissents from Thomas and Alito. Besides Gorsuch, Trump chose Justices Brett M. Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett’.

Trump should help elect good people over the next two years - then run for President in four.

Caring about ‘appearances’ is sooooo democrat.

Trump needs to run because he’d be the best man for the job.
