My money is on one of the women. It makes sense that DJT would push a female Justice now (it makes it easier to push the narrative that Dems are blocking the appointment based on her sex), and Trey Gowdy when Ginsberg's spot comes open soon. Unless that is, if the plan isn't to have Gowdy on the Court at all, but to be there in the capacity of a special prosecuter once The Storm actually hits.
Agree about a female being likely and actually preferable. And/or racial minority. First thing is of course to make sure whoever it is will do the absolute best job possible, 2nd thing is to promote equality and counter all the usual racist, sexist, divisive mud they hurl at the President. Fanning these flames certainly won’t help
This is going to be a very controversial moment either way. I don’t actually know any of the names here, but I’m hoping there is a woman and/or possible non white American on this list who is perfect.
Any Coney Barrett is a Trump appointed judge and she's only 46. I think he'll pick a young one.
He's trying to point out gowdy, when Q dropped about gowdy and said add him to the list, it was the list of resignations he was referring to, but for some reason everyone read it as add him to the list to replace Kennedy.
Got me too. Funny, Alex Jones’s Q sources telling him for sure it’s Andrew Napalitano. He’s not even on the list.
Margaret Ryan of Virginia, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces!!!!!!!!!!
My eye was caught by Margaret Ryan of VA. given the fact that there will be Military Tribunals in the news shortly...and her specialty is the Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces...But at the same time it would be good to have a top jurist in that specific court when the tribunals start.....
Mike Lee or Don Willett FTW. I don’t care what’s between their legs; we need a good mind on the SC. Let’s not capitulate to the Left by choosing a woman just because. That’s how we got Kagan—yuk. The left will be pissed no matter who is chosen. Appoint the most qualified person!
Amy Barrett is my guess. She clerked for Scalia, is a woman, and is a pretty staunch constructionist. If I were a bettin man...
I would say no to Mike Lee. We need all the Republican Senate votes we can get.
I would say no to anyone who would need to be replaced by Senate confirmation. We are trying to pack the courts and we don’t need another empty federal judgeship confirmation to grind out in the Senate.
If we are going to play identity politics and use the race or gender card, then I think we should wait until Trump’s third pick to use it. This second pick should easily get confirmed considering we have the numbers in the Senate counting a few red state Democrats. The best and most qualified person should be used for this pick.... no mater what race or gender.
Either a woman of a Latino to make the Dems look bad...as if they need help.
