Mike Lee is a conservative activist (legislator), not a judge. Same as Cruz. Let’s keep them both in the senate where they can work best for us.

Mike Lee has said numerous times that he has no interest in a Supreme Court Judgeship

Trump should accommodate him

“We need a Supreme Court justice who is not only wise and principled, but brave,”

Principled? OK
Wise? Maybe
Brave???? How so?

We don't have enough of a majority in the Senate to be scavenging senators for other gigs. And I don't buy the argument that Lee's seat is "safe". That's what everyone thought about Sessions' seat, and look what happened.

POTUS needs to leave sitting Reps and Senators alone.

NeverTrumper BS from the open-border gay marriage muzzie-coddling wing of the self-described conservative movement.

I’m sure Harry Reid would approve.
Their inside source at the Supreme Court is now gone and they need a replacement spy.

Its funny how Pelosi always seemed to know how the Court was going to vote until Kennedy resigned.

No mike lee.
The SCOTUS wasn’t important enough to him in the 2016 election. He was happy to give it to Hillary to stop trump.
He’s not fit for SCOTUS.

I find it offensive that people would campaign for someone to be a SC justice like it's homecoming queen.

Want to back him, explain [make plain] his credentials and then his views and arguments expressed in his writings [preferrably appellate court decisions] so we may know the quality of his mind and how he weighs the factors, legal constitutional and factual that he must consider when rendering an opinion.

This kind of sloganeering doesn't cut it by a mile. It's demeaning to me and the person your are advancing for consideration. I don't want and endorsement. I want an argument.

No one can call themselves a conservative, after supporting Hillary picking SCOTUS judges.

Rep. Mia Love, R-Utah,

Utah is too full of Morons to elect a real conservative.

The GOPe and it’s “conservative” DNC supporting operatives are the predicted result of Big Tent GOP crap.

Stand for nothing. Mean nothing.

My fear is that with this #walkaway thing going on, dem politicals are gonna jump ship to the GOP and the uniparty crap is just gonna get worse.

But hey, we have right now:

1 Episcopalian
3 Jews
5 Roman Catholics

In other words, not a single one of them is a born-again Christian. Just a bunch of fakers.

The only thing that matters is the decisions that he would make if he became a Justice of the Supreme Court.

So, what are they going to do when DJT picks someone else? Instead of circling the wagons, Vote no? It wouldn’t be a surprise. Would it? They are capable of losing a victory at the American people’s expense.
