Trump apparently got Gorsuch right, Sessions WRONG (but also “apparently” as he could still fool us and start arresting people), Rosenstein Wrong, Pruitt right but lost him, TREX Wrong, Mattis dubious, Ponpeo right, Wray WRONG.

So, strictly based on results, he gets an A. Because the SC pick outweighs all others combined.

I just wish he would replace some of his underlings and start doing better on “appointees”. And, I just pray he doesn’t F this most important pick ever up.

I know Mike Lee was in the anti-Trump camp along with Cruz. But he always stood by Cruz even before the election.

When I researched Mike’s past aad present, one thing stood out, the man is 100% true to the Constitution and has a vast knowledge of constitutional history.

Pense met with Cruz about Mike Lee as Supreme Justice. Cruz endorsed Lee and Lee said he would not say no to his selection.

My bet’s on Mike not because I like him or think he’s divine, etc, and not even so much that he’s a true constitutionalist. I think he could be selected because ...

IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT FOR THE SENATE TO DENY HIS CONFIRMATION.

Trump is the grand master of leaving rabbit trails for the media to follow.

Maybe it’ll be Kethledge, since Don Jr. knows him and has gone hunting with him.

“since Don Jr. knows him and has gone hunting with him.”

F Lee and Cruz too! Both are backstabbing, anti-Trumpers, and CLOWNS! GOPEers to boot!

And Lee was NEVER in consideration; thank GOD!!!

Pssssssssssssssssst...and Lee has gotten all kinds of other things wrong as well; he's utter garbage and you are 100%, damned dead wrong about both Lee and Cruz and Pence meeting with Lee re the now empty SCOTUS seat!

Well,he took Pence, as VEEP, on Ivanka and Jarred's say so; so who knows and besides which Kethledge's not a bad choice.

Good night, sleep tight....pleasant dreams.

I don’t think that Thapar was in the “FINAL FOUR”; but who knows?

Obama heard FINAL FOUR and thought that meant he needed to fill out a bracket.

I’m going to pick Kethledge. All of the head fakes today were Barrett and Kavanagh, so it’s probably Kethledge. Solid conservative from the Midwest, and not of Ivy League stock...which is a plus. He’s least likely to go squishy on the USSC.

Trump may have wanted to plant seeds of multiple possible hints so as to keep the buzz on this through the weekend. E.g., there is also a report that he supposedly tipped his hand to some contacts that it will be Kavanaugh. I wouldn’t be shocked to see some reason to believe it might Kethredge (sp?) floated elsewhere by tomorrow.

"Too much is at stake to allow politics to corrupt the Supreme Court confirmation process..."

LOL! That ship sailed years ago.

Hunting reveals more about a person than hours of congressional testimony does. The only people that I truly trust are ones that I have been hunting with more than once. If they don’t pass the first time out they don’t get a second chance.
