So, this is the man Trump wants in SCOTUS?

1. Yes, sounds like the guy he wants.

2. Trump has no idea why he chose Kavanaugh.

I wish someone would ask him to explain, specifically, why he chose this guy.

I am certain that he does not know. Someone told him who to pick.

4. Best 'BEST GET OUT OF JAIL FREE' pick.

3. Rachel made a great point Monday night

about Kavenaugh's very suspect role in the abortion case that needed a 'sponsor'. [Sorry no time to look it up].

Rachel flat out said that Kavenaugh's dissent was his job application to trump for the Supreme Court slot. [The extent to which Kavenaugh would take such an indefensible position in a case, to please trump].

Someone call the direct # and see if it's Cornyn.

6. Good find from 2003

... but my honest opinion is that Cheeto doesn't give a shit about overturning Roe v. Wade. (the abortion ruling)
It's a hot issue with the right-wing religious nuts, so maybe he's going along with their wishes. (?)

The only thing Cheeto wants is a "get out of jail free" card, somebody who will rule in his favor if there's ever a trial for him or his kids. No honest judge would ever agree to that, so we're looking at Krooked Kavanaugh instead.

7. You're right. I think Trump has made a private deal with Kavanaugh to protect him

in exchange for his nomination. Trump chose him because he’s a political operative who’s crooked and willing to do whatever it takes to advance the Repub agenda.

As far as abortion goes, Trump wants to overturn it because the majority of Americans are pro-choice, it’s part of the Democratic Party platform, and he wants to keep the support of the religious right. He himself doesn’t care about the issue, it doesn’t factor into his profit or money scams.

8. Cheeto is on record as a pro-choicer

... but that was years ago. Lately he hasn't said one way or the other.
