This has been a tough week for the liberals, hasn’t it? Supreme Court decisions going against them, and now the hated(by them) Trump gets another Supreme Court nominee.
And now that the Dems shot themselves in the foot on the Gorsuch nomination, by filibustering, then seeing the filibuster done away with, the Dems. can’t threaten a filibuster on this next nomination.
Their main hope, could be that with a margin of only 51-49, or 50-49 considering that John McCain may never return, some soft Republicans might vote against a strong conservative. That may be Chuck Schumer’s only hope.
Trump may decide to put up a woman, to make it harder for them to attack her. Then again, being a woman did not shield Sarah Palin, and being black did not shield Clarence Thomad
