So glad Durbin is one of the louder voices in the Dem party these days. He drives away voters in droves with every appearance. We’ve seen the Dems use this playbook pick after pick. Burn the house down Dick!

He’s the poster boy for a party that has lost it’s bearings.

Sorry, Heidi. Your party considers you expendable.

It was never the intent of the Founders/Framers that how American citizens live their lives (or would be allowed to live at all from the beginning) should be decided by courts.

Dick Durbin is really not-too-bright. The “Red State” Democrat Senators are not the only Democrat Senators facing defeat in their elections. Senators like, Tim Kaine, Bill Nelson, Debbie Stabenow, etc., are in danger of losing their seats, also.

If the Trump Nominee for the Supreme court is defeated, I predict the Democrats will lose ten to twelve Senate seats, come the November election.

The way democrats are escalating obstruction, I don’t know how the next democrat president, who has a Republican lead senate to ever get a cabinet nominee through or any court nominee to a vote.

Back in 1994 I believe it was, a bunch of democrat congresscritters obeyed Clinton and fell on their swords to defeat a bill insuring second amendment rights. The result was a wave election that put Republicans in power for the first time in forty years (more or less.)

If Rat senators are really that suicidal I say Great. We’ll have a fine time confirming the replacement for walking dead woman Buzzi later on.

I’m thinking there’s a lobbyist with a case on the docket. If it’s heard October-December, the new justice won’t vote on the case.

That’s the only way Durbin’s strategy makes sense.

“Ah, vote him down, get voted out of your seat and your R replacement votes him in after getting seated in January.

Works for me.”

The RATs are in the “heads they win, tails we loose” syndrome here. It’s going to be interesting, as we find out just who’s who in the zoo known as the US Senate.

“He’s willing to sacrifice other people’s political careers.”

He’s telling Heitkamp, Manchin and Donolly they need to be the one’s to jump on the grenade!
