As President Trump fights for confirmation of Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, the stakes go beyond the fate of this particular conservative nominee. At risk for Mr. Trump is his ability to install any more conservatives on the court at all.
If Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination falls apart in the face of sexual misconduct accusations, Mr. Trump faces the very real possibility that he could lose his chance to put even his second choice in this seat, which holds the balance between conservative and liberal wings on the nation’s most important court.
Democrats need to pick up only two seats in the midterm elections six weeks from Tuesday to take control of the Senate, and their anger over the Republican refusal to even consider President Barack Obama’s last nominee for the Supreme Court in 2016 is unabated. If Democrats take charge, they could block any choice Mr. Trump sends up or at least force him to pick a candidate more to their liking.
“Saving the Supreme Court from Trump’s clutches has always involved a very complicated two-step: first, block Kavanaugh, then fight like hell to win back the Senate,” said Brian Fallon, a 2016 campaign adviser to Hillary Clinton who helped start a group called Demand Justice to fight conservative judicial nominations. “If Kavanaugh drops out, we’re halfway there. If Democrats are able to win back the Senate, we’d have a path to blocking Trump from picking any of the archconservatives on his shortlist.”(continued)

Well they can dream
then turn the US over to the UN
And I dream the Democrats and global socialists dreams turn to dust.
The traitors at the NYT ought to start worrying more about being guests at a necktie party. These 50 IQ Marxist fools think they’ll escape the consequences of their treason.
Tell the NYT’s that if Kavanough gets in then Trump can use the USSC to declare that it is unconstitutional to Stall Trumps SC picks. /sarc.
That will rile the snowflakes.
If this is the issue they want to fight on then go for it. This is an issue we can win with the American People.
“..and their anger over the Republican refusal to even consider President Barack Obama’s last nominee for the Supreme Court in 2016 is unabated”
The guy who wrote this article is an asshole. If they were so angry then why didn’t Hillary Clinton get elected?
Had they run a normal Presidential candidate in 2016 they could have had all of it.
If the senate stops doing its job and halts votes, install them anyway.
obstruction.
dereliction of duty.
insubordination.
Getting the first one would give them a shot at getting the second one and getting the third one.
The Democratic Dream: Defeat Kavanaugh, Win the Senate and Stop Trump Supreme Court Picks.
Same kind of dreams a lot of 15 year old guys have.
It will remain as a dream
Just wait for the public spectacle when the semi-comatose dried prune named Ruth Ginsberg kicks the bucket.
If God has a sense of humor, He will do it 1 week after Kavanaugh is confirmed
Fixed it.
Kansas
I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All Democrats are is dust in the wind
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All Democrats do crumbles to the ground though they refuse to see
Dust in the wind
All Democrats are is dust in the wind
Oh, ho, ho
Now, don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind
All Democrats are is dust in the wind
All Democrats are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
Everything Democrats do is dust in the wind
Everything Democrats do is dust in the wind
The wind
The solution is easy
Get Out The Bote
Bigots like to dream.
Democrats are good at dreaming and obstructing.
From your keyboard to Gods monitor..
