You bet. You need to spend your days protesting and calling. The number is 1-800-no one cares. Keep us updated on how it goes.

Can't wait till the old woman Gunsburg bites the dust waiting for the next Dem President. Dems will have a major meltdown when Trump replaces her with a conservative.

Where you gonna go when the volcano blows.

Booker is wrong for two reasons.

1) Trump, personally isn't under criminal investigation, Mueller AND Comey have publicly said this themselves.

2) While he's on the job, he has the duty and obligation and the privilege to make the picks.

If you stay consistent with Booker's argument--then Trump shouldn't have been allowed to fill a cabinet, especially by picking the Attorney General, the FBI, and CIA Director along with Secretary of Sate, because arguably they are all linked and involved with investigating and participating in the accusations of collusion.

In law enforcement, when a cop is subject to a criminal investigation--they modify or suspend them, and take away their gun and badge and CANNOT participate in law enforcement field activities until they are cleared.

Trump has NOT has his "gun" and "badge" removed so to speak. Taking away his SCOTUS pick is tantamount to sending him to be a police officer without all of his tools to work with.

Ok, fine, then let's fire Mueller and also, I think, for his crimes, put him in the slammer, and then we can confirm that Justice.....

Booker is not lying. Mueller said Trump is the SUBJECT of a criminal investigation, but not a TARGET.

Booker has no impact as usual, and is still being overshadowed by Hillary and Biden for 2020.

Fienstien of CA will also have a field day with this if Barrett is chosen because of her Catholic background. Of course, Feinstein being a liberal Jew from San Francisco had no problem at all with another liberal Jew, Ginsberg, being put on the court.

We don't allow bank robbers to pick what judges they want. So why should Trump?

Mueller postponed for the third time sentencing of Flynn, that doesn’t sound like a confident action.

What if Mueller gets slammed by a judge for wrong doing and Mueller ends his investigation next week, what will Booker than say!

The left is at their wits end.

It's an election year. McConnell should avoid being a hypocrite and wait until after November
