I too say NO
What you said !!
Exactly.
I say if the media is wrong, I would love to see Britt Grant. She’s pretty impressive. And it would be great if the lovely women of the left all came to protest in their Handmaid outfits and Trump announces someone completely different.
No.
Amy Barrett will become Chief Justice Roberts’ best friend on the Court. They are both the darlings of the Washington Republican Establishment and she will vote that way. I have no problem with her religious views, in fact I welcome that on the Court. However, her view on the deference to government is troubliing, as demonstrated in her apparent support for Jacobsen v. Massachusetts. She can be expected to support lockdown measures, requiring only the magic word, emergency to deprive citizens of their rights.
We will rue this choice.
“Amy Barrett will become Chief Justice Roberts’ best friend on the Court.”
That’s my opinion, too. The media is “too OK” with her. I have a hinky feeling about her, like I did with Gorsuch whom I still don’t trust.
“I would love to see Britt Grant.”
Me, too.
Amy is hated by all the “cool” people. That is reason enough for me to choose her.
I too fear ACB. The libs always with 100% certainty get a moonbat justice that lives up to their moonbattery standards. Conservatives seem to get a chameleon moonbat about 40% of the time and seem to think that is a great record. Bowing to the Pope on the death penalty and virtue signaling with Haitain adoptions makes my moonbat detector go off like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_9KR3mYkUo
Wouldn’t it be a great stroke if he “punked” the media corpse by throwing Barrett’s name out continually and then announcing Lagoa at 5:00? I would laugh my tail off, and it would be a good object lesson to teach the media corpse who is in control...I don’t think it will happen, but it would be funny. Like all other matters, God will be picking this judge. ^^^^^
First: The most qualified person - woman or man - is Amy Coney Barrett.
Second: She is a known to the base and very well thought of. This begs the question, Why have to waste time introducing someone new with such a small window of opportunity?
Third: She can take the attacks which is something we don’t know about any other woman being considered.
Fourth: Trump already has way more Latino support than he won with last time. There is no political urgency in picking a Latino woman.
Fifth: As a strongly adherent Catholic Barrett will bring out Catholic voters an important bloc.
Sixth: Her pro-life position will thrill those concerned with ending Roe v Wade and they will vote accordingly.
Seven: Because Barrett has two adopted children from Haiti, the Democrats will question her about them with their real aim of opening questions about John Robert’s illegal adoptions of two children from Ireland. That sets the stage for an impeachment attempt by spiteful Democrats who will do anything to bring on a new hearing to fill his empty seat. This won’t work and will actually backfire, but it will be the issue the Democrats will use to try to re-gain the Senate in 2022. If it is successful or Roberts resigns rather than have his family publicly destroyed, Trump gets to pick a clean new Justice and we end up with six real conservatives.
I’d love the media to be a corpse!
Why not tell him? He has more relevant info on both of them and on the current situation and timing than we’ll ever have...
My new term was adopted from obama’s calling of the medical corps pronouncement of ‘corpse’...Appropriate, because journalism died years ago.

I think they will show up in the Handmaid outfits regardless of who it is.
He should have picked Lagoa—yeah, my late decision here, and per Robert Barnes, he should have gone with Lagoa.
The Federalist Society establishment/Deep State in DC (that brought Trump Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, Wray, etc.) has propped up Barrett, who has come down hard in support of president lockdowns, the forced vaccination precedent, will only rule consistent with what the Vatican says, etc.
Another disaster. Unfortunately.
The decision is made. Your Post is irrelevant. It literally doesn’t matter what “we” think.
Agreed, although I personally had NOTHING to do with it. :-)
Yes, for the reasons that you cite. And, perhaps he will. We have yet to hear from the President. Only the pundits and the White House leakers have spoken, all Washington Establishment types. Trump has had 24 hours to gauge the temperature of the electorate, so he could surprise everyone and poke a stick in the eyes of the establishment. He'll probably name Barrett, but I can dream until 5:00 PM Eastern.
