On getting him confirmed...I don't know if the Dems will fight a lot on this choice. He is not ultra right and doesn't have a anti-choice history. I have seen rumblings about him being potentially anti-choice and that would probably be the main thing they will be focused on IMO that and the fact that he sided with Hobby Lobby in their case to not provide birth control as a part of their insurance coverage to their employees as a result of ACA.

I still don't shop at Hobby Lobby over that case lol.

I think the Dems will focus on that a lot in the next coming weeks - the fact that he feels employers have a right to decide that their employees cannot have birth control as a part of their medical insurance. I know many women's groups have been worried about this.

I think Trump was trying to upstage Nancy Pelosi's town hall meeting on CNN.

I turned it on for a minute and got an immediate call from CNN telling me I just doubled their ratings share

They are currently protesting Gorusch on the steps of Supreme Court complete with pre-printed "Gorusch, extreme and dangerous" signs. Definitely grass roots organizers. LOL

No. But that's okay. One of the liberal judges will retire or kick the bucket soon. Then SCOTUS will be conservative.

I'm not a Trump supporter and I don't think he needed to make a tv show out of it but I think this guy sounds pretty good. Seems honest and upright. I do not care about the color of anyone's skin or whether they are male or female.
