Did you notice that in 1936 FDR lost Vermont and Maine? Those were rugged individuals back then, fiercely independent and not into FDR’s socialism. Boy those days are gone!
Maybe Trump should pack SCOTUS. Nice idea, democrats.
Glad they brought it up. Not their intention, but oh well.

President Trump’s nominees for the appeals court — litigators Daniel Collins and Kenneth Lee and Assistant United States Attorney Patrick Bumatay — are all based in Southern California, are prominent members of the conservative Federalist Society, and have worked for Republican administrations.
None of the three were approved by Feinstein or Harris via a process known as a “blue slip,” the senators’ offices confirmed Thursday. [snip]
Traditionally, presidents have deferred to home state senators when nominating federal judges, agreeing not to nominate people unless those senators returned their blue slip in support of the prospective judge. [snip]
[But after Feinstein’s Kavanaugh antics, violating the ‘blue slip’ tradition is richly deserved.]
Nah. Wait until Trump replaces Ruth Bader-Meinhof with Thapar, and makes Mitch real happy.
