That list is full of very good, very qualified Conservatives.

That's why we voted for him.

Everything else he's been able to accomplish, especially with the massive opposition he's faced from the Left and the Media.... is just icing on the cake.

Exactly. Any other Republican president would have withdrawn the Brett K. nomination. Way too much heat.

Donald Trump has more of a backbone than any Republican president or GOP presidential nominee in the last 30+ years has had. He gives it as good as he gets it, which is infuriating to the left.

Again, that's why I asked for clarity around which vote for Trump you were referring to.

All rent control laws.

Strict rules with regards to voting laws.

Transgender: You want to claim the opposite sex? Great. Go for it. However, if you were born a male and want to play on a girls basketball team and the school district says no. You don't get to play.
The SCOTUS is hardly gonna touch those issues. Roberts if nothing else, has respect for precedent.

If he has a backbone, I’ve seen no evidence of it.

Trump is easily the weakest pushover I’ve ever seen as POTUS. He’s never held the line against ANYTHING that has a powerful advocate or benefactor. He’s a 350 lb jelly roll, and everyone in DC knows it. Physically and mentally soft as Twinkie filling.

His weakness is infuriating, not his non existent strength.

Really? Even Scalia said that the right to bear arms is not unlimited.

I didn't understand the importance or relevanceof the question.

Why does it matter if someone voted for him in the primaries or not?

A little off topic, but if he's just following the path that any GOP President would take, these SCOTUS noms are not a reason to have voted for him in the primary election.

According to the very plain and simple language of the 2nd amendment it is.

Any other "interpretation" of the 2nd amendment is nothing but the OPINION of someone who doesn't like what it very plainly says.

The fact that the people giving their OPINION are judges doesn't change that.

350 lbs? Where did you get that from?

Make The Supreme Court Great Again!
Response: Opinion

I agree.
It all boils down to the Silent and Boomer generation vs. the Toxic Socialist Youths.
Get another Conservative in the House for Life and I can sleep better at night until
all us old farts are finally laid to rest. Then the baton exchanges hands and these
young bucks can mold and create their own America. I am happy with the one I was
raised in.............Best wishes.
