Right Now These Look To Be The Top Two Contenders For Justice Pick
If the best pick, I would like it to be a woman. Would drive the Dems crazy.
Quote:President Donald Trump’s top two contenders to replace retiring Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy are Judges Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett, The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.
Trump has committed to revealing his nominee July 9 and noted he will interview approximately six to seven candidates for the position over the coming week, including two women.
Sources involved in the process say an anti-Kavanaugh whisper campaign has been under way since the news of Kennedy’s retirement broke, with concerns about his record and Bush ties being touted. Kavanaugh has spent some two decades in Washington’s rarefied legal circles, first in private practice, then in the George W. Bush White House, and finally on the appeals court. As such, he has well-placed allies around the capital.
Multiple sources involved in the selection process inside and outside the administration told TheDCNF that the most serious consideration is being given to Kavanaugh and Barrett, two conservative justices included on Trump’s previously released list of potential nominees.

I'd be fine with either but yes, the woman would be finer. And fine she is.

If you thought they were rough on Clarence Thomas, you will really see them go after a woman nominee, just like they have Ivanka Trump, Sarah Sanders, KellyAnne Conway and Betsy DeVos.

...Haley, the Homeland Security head whats her name. etc.
They're hypocrites. They throw out those adjectives only when it suits them. When it doesn't they act like they want to slap those women like they'd seen their fathers slap their mothers for being uppity.

Both are good choices but Barrett would be a double win. Remember that she was the nominee that Diane Feinstein attacked over her Catholic faith. Get to show ads with dims attacking a woman and her faith.

Yeah, I'm hoping it's Barrett as well. Fine choice and good optics right before the midterms as dims throw every bare-handed hot turd they can dig out of their worthless, hypocritical asses at her.

RE: Right Now These Look To Be The Top Two Contenders For Justice Pick
My brother the law professor says Kavanaugh would be a disaster. He doesn't seem to be as concerned with Barrett, and in fact, one of his conservative compatriots thinks Barrett is great.
And I think all of you are greatly over-estimating the backlash of any testy hearings. The Republicans didn't face much backlash from their Garland shenanigans. At this point, America expects nothing less than a soap opera for any Supreme Court justice confirmation hearings.

Be careful. Those are serious trigger words for stink.
