This occurred to me as well. He swung on Obamacare.

Even if Trump were to resign tomorrow, he's done more for this country than most can imagine. But, he's going strong... and has 6 more years to go!!!

Maybe down the line outfits like CNN might even have to retool... and actually try some honesty... but I won't hold my breath on that.

Anyway, I'm loving the fact I voted for him... he's amazing!

What the whiny snowflake media fails to mention is that their reliable Kennedy swing vote CHOSE to step down at this time so Trump could choose his successor.

What does that say about his view of his ‘swing vote’?

“I think we end up with a 4-1-4 court just like we had.
Roberts will be the new swinger.”

This “problem” will be “fixed” by Ruthies death. It will be backstopped by Breyer’s departure. Trump needs to leave the country with a 7 to 2 SCOTUS. “Reupping” Thomas’ and Alito’s seats would be wonderful too. The icing on the cake would be to get to replace Sotomayor. The Fat Yenta is too young for any thought of replacement, but she could choke to death on a piece of Brisket of Beef.

“Kav winning means we can shoot libtards, right? /s ?”

He can start with “national CCW reciprocity.” Better still, take the issuance of concealed weapons permits away from the states an enshrine it as a national matter.

“There needs to be an amendment to fix the number of justices at nine. Or maybe to establish an inflexible formula, e.g., something involving the logarithm of the population. “

To do that, you would simply be creating a Ninth Circuit mess with the SCOTUS. Might want to use algorithm in place of logarithm.

...would fundamentally reshape it in a more conservative less partisan liberal direction...

Needed to fix that...

Not tied of winning at all!

Maga!!!

Some have pledged/challenged extra donations to FR upon his confirmation...I am one of them...please spread the word that if we are to win, we need to find it within ourselves to invest in our FReedom...lots plan to celebrate with a few 'cocktails' but it would be nice if they also slid a few extra bucks Jim Rob's way.

What Kavanaugh's confirmation would mean

It means that Roberts will move left to replace Kennedy.

The smear on Kavanaugh must be investigated and prosecuted.

The same people and infrastructure will reliably be used to attack the next nominee.

The best defense is a good offense. All that is necessary for evil to triumph, is for good men to do nothing.

We can hope, but it was Kav who planted the 'Obamacare is a tax ' idea into Roberts brain. It's those two who seem to be close.

I view it as 1 small step in the right direction. Dems chose to die on this hill...thankfully because it will thin their ranks for the next one or two which appear to be a sea change.

Imagine a RBGinsburg swap for Amy Conan Barrett. Remember, too, all current female justices are raging liberals. We want some balance and diversity (of thought)

Because court packing worked out so well for FDR when he tried it (and the Democrats controlled EVERYTHING), didn’t it?
