I support him to be the Trump's nominee to the Supreme Court based on this.

Screw Mike Lee. I don’t care if he’s George Washington or Edmund Burke. He’s no friend of the deplorables. Screw Mike Lee.

The LDS church is quickly moving into conformity with the PC police. They are making affectionate murmurs toward the non-hetero community, saying there is room for boy-only or girl-only eternal planets in the future. When the older apostles leave this world, changes are coming.

The LDS community has never been rock solid on abortion. Aborted spirits can just jump into another human body and carry on with life.

The LDS church is migrating toward liberalism. Will Mike Lee, who has been a conservative so far, follow?

I do not and all on Trumps list are pro life.

We do not need a #nevertrump stooge who voted for McMuffin and has a big nasty mouth.

Mostly he’s a backstabber and a Never Trumper like most Freepers freeped. We could do better than this clown...

Lee is not a viable candidate for this vacancy precisely because his views on abortion are well known (and FTR I fully agree with them). Thanks to what has been fittingly described as our “own goal” in Alabama we have a Senate majority of exactly 1. That means we can afford to lose only one vote. But there are two GOP Senators (both women) who are at least moderately pro-abortion. I doubt either would vote for a candidate who was openly declared to support overturning Roe. Whoever is nominated to fill this particular seat must be someone who, whatever they may have said privately, is not on record on this subject. Political pragmatism sometimes is uncomfortable but we need to give them both some plausible deniability in exchange for what will likely be difficult votes.

No. No, no, no. Just no. Lee is the ultimate Never Trumper, but in some ways worse since he claims the mantle of a conservative. No president since Reagan has ushered more conservative policy into Law than DJT, and Lee went on Facebook a month before the election and pleaded with Trump to step aside as the nominee.

I appreciate his pro-life stance, but Lee is not to be trusted on the bench, plain and simple.

Single issue decision on a potentially 20+ year appointment. Bad, BAD way to go about this. Just wow.

I have nothing against Mike Lee to be on the SC, but there are plenty of others who are proven conservative judges who can take the job.

Mike Lee has the same “potential” to become a Justice of the SCOTUS as any FReeper does. That is, not a chance in hell.

Yeah, but he said he didn't want to be nominated by Trump.

Mike Lee would be a GREAT Supreme Court Justice. there are very few who can match his commitment to originalism and constitutionalism.

However, we need him in the Senate. Whoever replaces him will not be as good. Lee has a lifetime 100 percent record.

His brother, Thomas Lee, is also on the list and would be an excellent pick.

99.43 Life time rating from the American Conservative Union.

I guess I will forgive him his ignorance on Trump since other then that, he is solidly on our side.

If Trump chooses this POS then it shows he’s not learned a god damn thing.

I’ve got this question.

If Roe vs. Wade was overturned, what would be the next step?

The power on these decisions would go to the states.

So would the state legislature vote to decide if it was legal or not?

Or would the people be able to vote directly on making it illegal in their state?

And of course, how would YOU vote?

As Scott Adams has pointed out, Sen Lee does not believe that the Government should do anything about the Google/Facebook anti-conservative, discriminatory monopoly on Internet news & communication.

He played an interview where Tucker Carlson challenged him on this, and Lee basicaly licked the A*se of these discriminatory leftist internet monopolies.

NEVER!!!
