Mitch McConnell: Brett Kavanaugh will be on the Supreme Court by October start date
The Washington Times ^ | September 7, 2018 | Gabriella Munoz

Posted on 09/07/2018 7:49:55 AM PDT by jazusamo

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Thursday he expects Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh will be on the bench by the court’s first day in October.

Mr. McConnell sang Judge Kavanaugh’s praises during an interview with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt, and said he expects him to be confirmed before September ends.

“I think any doubts anybody might have had have been dispelled by his virtuoso performance before the Judiciary Committee,” he said. “I mean, it’s stunning. He’s just a stellar nomination in every respect.”

Mr. McConnell did weigh in on the dramatic show made by Sen. Cory Booker, New Jersey Democrat, during the hearing on Thursday.

Good for Mitch McConnell, just keep jabbing the RATs and especially Cory Booker, he'll get crazier and crazier.

Kavanaugh will get unianimous Republican suppprt. The only is whether Res State Democrat senators will break with their party to confirm him.

The hazing is just about over.

Soon the dems will enter the next phase of grieving.

Will give props to McConnell, but major props to Trump.

Does anyone think that if the Dauphin was Prez, we’d have as many new good judges?

Let me point out something. Yertle RARELY makes promises and always keeps them.

*He said he’d bring Ocare up for a vote but never said he had the votes. he did.

*He said he’d PASS tax cuts. He did.

*He said he’d get Gorsuch on the court. He did.

*Now Judge K. Yertle is very careful not to overpromise.

Lol!

Remind me of an SCTV skit where some men follow Grizzly Abrams pet turtle for days to save him. (Start watching at 2:15)

Now B!tch, there are currently SEVEN vacancies on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and you have THREE nominees to vet. So while it’s nice that you’re moving ahead with Kavanaugh, you have these people to put on that $hit hole court along with nearly 200 other judgeships you need to address. So GTFO and do your job!

I just hope at the end of the day we find that his wife, Elaine Chow, is the “unnamed person” who is trying to thwart Trump, because B!tch could not withstand that sort of disloyalty and would have to go along with his wife.

Now fund/build the Wall!

Trump chose a superb pick.

In three days of hearings, the Democrats couldn’t lay a glove on him.

What’s deeply frustrating to them is Kavanaugh was nothing like Bork.

They couldn’t make him sound or look extreme.

So far he’s made them look like fools who should be sitting in the corner with a dunce cap on. It’s like Don Rickles roasting George Clooney. They don’t have any ammo.

Wait... we have a GOP leader in the senate?

How come I never hear him talk or promote the GOP ideology?

That’s why it’s not her. She has too much to lose, plus she’s got more self-discipline than to shoot herself in both feet & Mitch in the head. I also think she would write in a more ‘educated’, organized fashion than the actual subversion piece.

I can't even imagine what they will do when RBG dies (or any liberal judge retires/ dies) and DJT names a replacement . Their behavior on this nomination has been so extreme- what more can they do? Their heads are going to explode.
