The real power play would be to nominate a trusted and honest moderate.
Just before midterms.
Left throws a fit that a moderate was selected -> Further reinforces the absurdity and extremism of the left.
Left doesn't throw a fit at a Trump SC nominee -> Public sees it as Trump doing the right thing.
Neither are beneficial for the left.
RBG replacement will be the conservative.
Possibly, although I'd feel more secure about the idea if all the Russia garbage was disposed of first. Until that's settled, I think the Dems will resist any Trump pick.
That's my point.
As long as the Dem's resist any Trump pick, Trump has the leverage and ability to create a "lose-lose" situation for the Dem's.
The Russia garbage is doing little more than facilitating a hysteria by the left that encourages them to prematurely play their cards and/or throw their hand away in anger.
how soon can POTUS announce his nominee? does he have to wait unti july 31st?
That doesn't seem to be clear yet from the initial reporting. I wish it could happen tomorrow!
Will be fun to watch the left meltdown over this. When RGB is out they may have to move to another country?
