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 what happens when a California idiot opens her mouth. Every one of the California Senators is a moron. Perhaps they should just tape their mouths shut so they won’t show the world what idiots they and their voters are.
Feinstein didn’t know his record but was there to try an prove her point along with the other Democrats. Democrats looked like a bad joke in the confirmation. I give Gorsuch credit for staying calm & answering about his record not about the silly questions that he was sometimes asked. Gorsuch ‘s place on the supreme court should bring their findings back to our laws that these congressmen/women wrote. Like he explained, if you din’t like the law, rewrite it.
dy fy is a idiotic fool
Most will be out of this man’s league intellectually. I look forward to his retorts!
It’s wrong for a respectable man like Gorsuch, to have to plead to a complete Moron like a corrupt Feinstien
She is a total MORON !!!
This senile old hag should resign!
another “rich$#%&!@* that has nothing else to do but be a Senator! She is about as qualified as I am.
Feinstein is just another addle brained libtard…if she doesn’t retire soon, she’ll never get to!
THIS is what a dem. senator looks like…….she’s an embarrassment to ALL!!!!!!!
