Look, Trump has faith in Mitch, so don’t fret.

what’s your problem with Mitch? He has an R behind his name. Isn’t that what’s important? Can you not tell they have controlled both the house and senate?

It’s time for the 2 senators that are running for president to draw a line in the sand call out Mitch.

The title is inaccurate ... the feckless are not ‘on our side’. They are blackmailed and do as the masters in the oligarchy6 tell them.

Maybe a fight with Obama now for an acceptable nominee would be better?

Ahhh, No

Orrin has his temple recommend, so he can change tunes anytime his masters in the global oligarchy tell him to.

I wasn’t proposing one over the other. There are pitfalls in all of the choices.

I believe that a certain Senator from Arizona, a Sensyor who tends to stab us in the back every time, is facing a primary challenge. Time to make him feel the heat.

Corrupt federal lawmakers let any federal government official outside the legislative branch steal legislative powers from both the federal government and the states so that they can do Congresss unconstitutional legislative work for it.

By letting outsiders do their dirty work work for it, lawmakers keep their voting records clean to fool low-information patriots to reelect them, such voters clueless about the federal governments constitutionally limited powers.

My concern about the corrupt Senate confirming an Obama-nominated activist justice is this. Senators may try to keep their voting records clean by deliberately ”abdicating” their power to confirm a justice by going on recess in order to let Obama make a recess appointment.

Remember in November !

When patriots elect Trump, Cruz, or whatever conservative they elect, they need to also elect a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will not only work within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers to support the new president, but also protect the states from unconstitutional federal government overreach as the Founding States had originally established the Senate to do.

Also, consider that such a Congress would probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices confirmed by previous state sovereignty-ignoring senators.
