Last year, Senate Republicans played a dangerous game with the Supreme Court. This year, it seems to have paid off in more ways than one. They’re getting the pick they wanted — and they’re aggravating their liberal colleagues in the process.
When Antonin Scalia unexpectedly passed last year, the bench faced a predicament it had avoided for decades. For the first time in several administrations, the White House had the opportunity to upend the ideological balance of the nation’s highest court.
Or, they thought they did, anyway.
Republicans refused to hold hearings for Obama’s nominee, Merrick Garland. Instead, they argued that the next president — whoever that may be — should be the one to fill the vacancy. The GOP leadership were betting that the polls were wrong and that Donald Trump would stage an incredible come-from-behind victory.
When he did, all eyes turned to Trump — whose conservative credentials were questioned by many mainstream Republicans for the duration of the campaign.
But if you need proof that Trump nominated a capable constitutionalist to the court, watch him take down California Senator Dianne Feinstein on the next page:
that’s cal. for ya brainless state is sinking like the titanic
gee, another senile, idiot politician from Ca,,what a surprise
well Neil knew what job he had to do for those who got him the seat. Neil gave his first decision to end a man’s life with a case that was not proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Our Constitution is clear and Neil showed he does not follow the Constitution. But you get back in life what you give out and Neil will learn what God decides for him.
What a lie this is.
Another Idiot Liberal Marxist .
She’s just$#%&!@*s**t
Lovey you my hrandcgi
Insane hypocrite!
Feinstein’s is just another stupid democrat that the stupid people in Ca. elected into office for years. Got to remember she also was the Mayor of San Fransicko.
She is not smart at all, dumb as a box of rocks; without the box.
