So is the question about whether Hillary or Giuliani are more able to find 10 RINOs? I don’t understand - please explain,

Everyone seems to believe that if Hillary would win she could get anyone on the SC she wanted. However, whoever she might nominate would have to get 10 Republicans to consent to their nomination. I'm not sure about this. Republicans do seem to get together better in opposition than they do when they are in the majority. I think Rudy or McCain could get a liberal SC nominee confirmed easier than Hillary.

I do care very deeply about abortion.

But I don’t care what the President thinks about it. It’s out of his hands.

I think all of the GOP contenders will nominate judges that are pretty much the same. Therefore, it is no longer a useful criteria for selecting a nominee.

IMO. you forgot to add “Barf Alert!”

I’m a NYer, and I know better.

[Sir Francis Dashwood]

He was a tough-on-crime prosecutor and as such is going to want strict-constructionist judges.

Without the Second Amendment... NO effing thank you...

The president must also prep the country for a post-Roe world. A pro-choice prez, even if he’s sincere in his desire to appoint anti-Roe justices, cannot credibly use his position to sway opinions in a pro-life direction.
