The nutso Left is doing Trump’s bidding in exposing how terrible they are

><><
For sure. The more they show their true colors, the more people don’t like what they see.

Good. I suspect the Goresuch nomination was as well.

It is pretty tiring to have ANY positive news to be met with irrational negativism. MM is the leader of the Senate because he is elected by Senators. There is no reason to doubt he will do what he says he will.

Is that in dog years or in Methuselah years?

That is in "This years."

LOL, we’re 18 months into the Trump administration, and the next six months will literally fly by. We have one tax bill, and as far as we know no other large legislative package to address decades of Leftist drift.

Neither McConnell or Ryan lift one finger to support or defend Trump

By contrast, look at Nancy Pelosi and other leading Democrats. They are supporting their agenda tirelessly, non-stop.

None of this registers with you? Really?

If the Democrats had the majority in both houses and Mrs. Clinton was president, they’d be passing law after law after law. They have fire in the belly for their cause.

We don’t. We have Tooter Turtle and MIA Ryan in charge.

What the hell?

Yes, consider me dog tired of waiting. I waited fifty years for this moment, and NOTHING that depends on the Senate or House is getting done. The House and the Senate are just slow walking everything.

Trump has done all that he can. I give him kudos. It’s way beyond time for the rest of the team to act like they want to play.

McConnell is lucky I still say anything at all nice about him. Ryan too...

It sounds as if this has been choreographed in advance.

I like it.

I don't think any bitch GOP Senator dares vote NO on TRUMP's Supreme Court pick!

McCain. Flake. The Arizona guys are heading out the door anyway.

1) My source on court goings-on has been 100% right on everything he’s told me. He had Alito writing the Janus decision a week before it was announced, meaning it was a victory for us.

2) Further, he predicted last week Kennedy would retire right after the last vote.

3) He thinks Brett Kavanaugh of DC Circuit Court is the likely nominee (clerked for Kennedy, so he got a good rec). Amy Barrett Comey is likely #2 (46 and from IN, meaning Donnelly would be very hard pressed to vote against her).

4) Yertle rarely makes promises. He promised to get Gorsuch confirmed and did. He saw Kennedy coming and cleared the August recess specifically for him. Yertle has now promised to confirm Trump’s nominee, which tells me he already knows the votes.

Here is the list he is taking the nominee from. They were vetted when Gorsuch was chosen. Am sure he has a couple already in mind.
