No downside to doing it before the election. Trump wins and we got another conservative long term on the court. Trump loses and we got another conservative on the court long term. The risky move is to wait as there is no guarantee both Trump with win and the Senate will remain in Republican hands for four more years.


This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

And whoever it's, if it's a man, they will be Me-Two-ed, so a woman is easier to push thru.

But whoever it is, the R's just need to dismiss any & all Demon protests & delaying requests for more time.................they are not going to vote from the nominee, not a single one, ever, so just have the hearings, then call the vote w/o delay. The days of the Demons ever giving a single SCOTUS vote to an R nominee with a bi-partisan vote are over for ever so move on. (RGB was confirmed 96-4)

But that's wishful thinking, I think. Nothing is likely to happen very quickly. Sadly.

I would prefer the candidate to be a Protestant, ultra conservative Caucasian male.

Nobody else represents my interests properly.

To me, there's 3 criteria for why you want a candidate:

1. Who's the best choice as a Constitutionalist on the SCOTUS.
2. Who's has the greatest odds of getting confirmed in the short time frame.
3. Who would cause the greatest Left meltdown if confirmed.

Honestly, I would prefer to go straight to #1 but I don't know who that is at this point as I'm not a legal scholar with in depth knowledge of all their rulings. #2 is probably one of the women, even if I hate the identity politics garbage. And #3 is probably Ted Cruz. Can't imagine a bigger Dem meltdown than Ted Cruz getting confirmed.


Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

You'll be hard pressed to find a more pro gun nominee than Amy Barrett, except Cruz of course.

Amy Barrett would be an awesome choice, she is my favorite of those nominated, her pro life and second amendment views will cause the left to have an absolute meltdown. They will have a tough time trying to get a false sexual harassment or racism charge on her, not that they won’t try. These is nothing that they won’t stoop to, nothing is beneath them.

Cruz went on board with Paul Ryan to pass the TPP trade agreement. Then tried to go against it when he learned that it came with a political cost. The TPP was a globalist initiative.

He also blamed Trump's rhetoric for the riot which occurred at a Trump rally in Chicago during the GOP primary for the 2016 election.

Cruz shifts with the wind. He's a politician. He's not dependable enough to be a Supreme Court Justice.

She's NOT Conservative or Republican. She sided with the IL gov that banned gatherings of more than 50 people, even though they allowed thousands to gather to protest raycism...

"We should have Constitutionalist judges!"......well, we should, but it ain't gonna happen. A REAL Constitutionalist simply would not be allowed to get very far.

All I know for sure is that whoever the president nominates is gonna touch off the next left wing chit show just like with Kavanaugh. They will come up with something disgusting even if they have to invent it. Nothing is too low for them. Scum like that will do anything to further their agenda.

white parents better spend more time raising their own white kids cause most of them are useless and lazy. so you really think we need more negroes in this country?

We can use all the educated, conservative, productive negroes we can get in this country.

I hate identity politics also but in this case any male nominee is going to get accused of sexual harassment to stall the proceedings. The dems have undoubtedly got dozens of women lined up to accuse the new nominee of rape, they're just waiting to find out the name to put on the papers. Nominating a woman takes that card away from them. I've seen the name of Barbara Lagoa thrown around in addition to Barrett. I don't know much about her but at first glance she looks OK, she's a miami born cuban and that would probably help deliver the cuban community vote for Trump in the election. Florida's going to be tight and is a must win for Trump so that's a consideration.

Ideally we'd nominate the most conservative and best qualified person we can find but that's not reality, this thing is highly politicized and we have to have someone that can quickly get through the hearings while the dems throw anything and everything at them. A white male is going to get accused of sexism and racism, that's the first page of the dem playbook and is a given in today's environment. Right now they'll just want to stall the hearings until after the election, it's critical that we get the new justice seated before the election.

Would I like a conservative protestant white male? Yes, I would but his nomination would get stalled and strung out by the dems past the election and it'd be as good as dead. The nominee won't get a vote from a dem no matter who it is, that's a given, but by picking carefully Trump can take a lot of arrows out of the dems quiver that could be used to hold up the confirmation.

The only reason the nomination would get stalled is that the R's let it happen just as they did with K.

Hold the committee hearing, say no to the delaying & stalling tactics, call the committee vote, then the entire Senate vote.

The R's have just been too afraid to play hardball, time to grow a set.
