This never could have happened without DJT, and it’s the powerful love that we supporters have for DJT that gives him his power, and we love him because DJT powerfully supports US! ... the rest of the spineless GOP has now figured out that it’s total political suicide to go against DJT because they’re going against us when they go against DJT ...

This is the exact situation that we conservatives have been praying for for decades as we suffered through uniparty “lesser-evil” RINO globalist liars and traitors like the Bushs, McCain and Romney and the multitude of lesser (but similar) lights in the Senate and the House ...

Many conservatives have argued for a 3rd party but i always believed a third party was an impossibility for success and instead promoted the idea of someone somehow hijacking the apparatus of the GOP, but not knowing who or how that could happen ... now we know ...

Romney ‘supports holding the vote”

He won’t tell us in advance WHAT HIS vote will be.

I can’t seem to find it right now, but in another statement, Romney was even more accommodating.

He said that he will [paraphrasing] “support whatever process and timetable the President and Senate Leadership settle on”.

To me, it sounded like he is perfectly fine with scheduling the confirmation before the election.

...or the position of the Mormon Church.


Some positions are hard to determine...

 
 
 
 
 
What's for dinner?
 

D&C 49:18-19 

18 And whoso forbiddeth to abstain from meats, that man should not eat the same, is not ordained of God;
19 For, behold, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, and that which cometh of the earth, is ordained for the use of man for food and for raiment, and that he might have in
abundance.

D&C 89:12-13 

12 Yea, flesh also of beasts and of the fowls of the air, I, the Lord, have ordained for the use of man with thanksgiving; nevertheless they are to be used sparingly;
13 And it is pleasing unto me that they should not be used, only in times of winter, or of cold, or famine.

 
 
 
It must be tough; being a Mormon.   Having to face Scripture that state two oppossing ideas and somehow managing to believe BOTH of them!  It's no WONDER that Utah leads in Prozac usage!

After all he is doing the right thing regardless of motivation.

He's been taught to do that from early childhood

Perhaps that is why most Mormons vote Conservative.

Don’t pull the Liberal level; Choose the Right!

The most probable “compromise” will be a vote out of Judiciary with the floor vote in late November or early December.

If, as seems inevitable, the GOP loses the Senate, the nominee will not be confirmed. McConnell will have kept his pledge of a floor vote, Romney, Sasse, etc can switch for “fairness” because “the people have spoken” and vote “no”.

I hope I’m wrong, but you never lose if you bet on the GOP slithering away from a win to their comfy position as losers.

It’s pretty much guaranteed.

It’s also pretty much guaranteed the Dems take the Senate without her winning.

Linda and the Turtle need to man up and do what their supporters want them to do, which is to EXPEDITE the entire process. The vast majority of my family and friends want it FINISHED by 10/20, OR SOONER!
