Gorsuch:"Trump's attack on judges demoralizing."


:hmm:

Could be just pandering to move a few Dem votes, honestly. He said that while meeting with a Dem Senator.

(((Feinstein))) had raves for Gorsuch after their private meeting.

:lol: If the left wing of the democratic party swung behind Gorsuch, imagine the angst that would cause in Trump's base.

They aren't going to be able to stop him anyway. They should at least collect the LOLs and possibly save the filibuster (since republicans would almost certainly pull out the nuclear option).
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Btw, I love how the right is doing everything they can to ensure Warren stands for President at some point.

Trump on the courts and his Muslim ban:

Quote"It's sad, I think it's a sad day. I think our security is at risk today. And it will be at risk until such time as we are entitled and get what we are entitled to as citizens of this country," Trump said. "It was done for the security of our nation. The security of our citizens. So that people come in who aren't going to do us harm. And that's why it was done. And it couldn't have been written any more precisely. It's not like, 'Oh gee, we wish it were written better.' It's written beautifully."

...

"You could be a lawyer, or you don't have to be a lawyer. If you were a good student in high school or a bad student in high school, you can understand this, and it's really incredible to me that we have a court case that's going on so long," Trump told his audience. "I was a good student. I understand things. I comprehend very well, OK? Better than, I think, almost anybody. And I want to tell you, I listened to a bunch of stuff last night on television that was disgraceful. It was disgraceful because what I just read to you is what we have. And it just can't be written any plainer or better and for us to be going through this."

It seems more and more like collecting the LOLs for his or her constituents ought to be the primary legislative responsibility of an American elected official in 2017.

My impression is that the underlying issue is a lack of will to commit resources (and by that I mean, more money) to improving crappy schools. I could be misinformed, however.

You're not; Dazzling Suburbanites will drone on about how many more dollars are spent on inner-shitty schools with less results; wealthier school systems generate more funding through local taxes than poorer school systems, so they receive less aid from the state than the poorer school systems.  Easier to blame teachers and inner-city schools, though.

He'll probably have it turned into a suit and wear it at his swearing in.

Robot Nixon would literally be a better president.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.
