Victory lap: Trump to swear in Kavanaugh in prime-time ceremony
washingtonexaminer.com ^ | October 08, 2018 | by Robert Donachie

Posted on 10/08/2018 8:52:51 AM PDT by 11th_VA

President Trump will ceremonially swear in Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh at a prime-time event in the East Room of the White House on Monday evening.

The ceremony follows perhaps the most contentious confirmation battle for a Supreme Court nominee in history and the administration is using Monday evening to show voters they can make good on its promises.

In front of a room full of reporters, television cameras and Republican lawmakers at 7:00 p.m. Monday, the president will stand next to Kavanaugh and present him to the nation as one of the crowning achievements of his first two years in office.

Trump did not give the same treatment to Justice Neil Gorsuch, whose confirmation process was far less controversial. The president swore Gorsuch in at an 11 a.m. ceremony in the Rose Garden.

This is a fabulous idea! I’m sorry for a few pearl clutchers to have to worry about everything.

‘Rats are trying to say Kavanaugh is “tainted” as a SCOTUS Justice, and Kavanaugh’s family has been through hell with him. This is a chance to put him and his family right in the warm embrace and highest honor of all the decent people in this country.

Demoncraps will hate him and revile him no matter what.

He failed to mention one side had just surrendered when that speech was given.

Not only had they surrendered, but General Lee had thanked General Grant for his magniminity in allowing them to keep their swords and side arms and had ordered his men to stack their other war material, muster out and go home to their families.

“Trump did not give the same treatment to Justice Neil Gorsuch, “

Dumb statement. K WAS sworn in late on a Saturday night.

G WAS sworn in in the Rose Garden!

DIFI appears to be in very poor health.. She needs to resign or is she going to hang on like McCain did?

More than likely, she will be voted out of office in a month.

You’re probably right on that.

For the third picture down - is that a tattoo of a cheeseburger and some doughnuts on her upper left arm? Given her size that would seem appropriate.

Nope, more work to do. There are up to seven other justices to replace. Imagine the makeover possible and lasting impact.

"Wasn't he already sworn in?"


Yes, but in that first swearing in, Kavanaugh was flashing some kind of "white power" ("W") sign with his hand there, so they wanted him to do it again, this time with just the "OK" hand sign.

He’s doing the right thing here. It’s not a victory lap. It’s a nice thing to do so that the public gets a chance to see that Justice Kavenaugh is not the monster the leftists made him out to be.

Exactly.

Why make him do a swear in in private like he’s to be ashamed or hidden?

Is that a Photoshop or does that heavy woman really have a cheeseburger and donuts tattooed to her arm?

Well....I think it was important to get the deal done officially ASAP. This is the public video which will make the lib’s and media’s heads turn around in circles like Linda Blair.
