Last year, Senate Republicans played a dangerous game with the Supreme Court. This year, it seems to have paid off in more ways than one. They’re getting the pick they wanted — and they’re aggravating their liberal colleagues in the process.
When Antonin Scalia unexpectedly passed last year, the bench faced a predicament it had avoided for decades. For the first time in several administrations, the White House had the opportunity to upend the ideological balance of the nation’s highest court.
Or, they thought they did, anyway.
Republicans refused to hold hearings for Obama’s nominee, Merrick Garland. Instead, they argued that the next president — whoever that may be — should be the one to fill the vacancy. The GOP leadership were betting that the polls were wrong and that Donald Trump would stage an incredible come-from-behind victory.
When he did, all eyes turned to Trump — whose conservative credentials were questioned by many mainstream Republicans for the duration of the campaign.
But if you need proof that Trump nominated a capable constitutionalist to the court, watch him take down California Senator Dianne Feinstein on the next page:
This good man was forced to endure attacks from imbeciles.
SHE HAS FLEECED AMERICA FOR BILLIONS IN GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS FOR HUSBAND….FOR YEARS…. ALL PUBLIC INFORMATION. QUEEN OF CORRUPTION. AND ACCORDING TO HER PUBLISHED STATEMENTS, IS AS DUMB AS PILOSE, SHEILA JACKSON AND WATERS. TOTAL EMBARRASSMENTS TO ALL INTELLIGENT, CAPABLE, WOMEN IN AMERICA. AREN’T QUALIFIED WOMEN, OF INTEGRITY, INTELLIGENCE AND HONOR EVER RECRUITED AND SUPPORTED FOR POLITICAL OFFICE?
Feinstein knows nothing How true Good for Justice Gosuch for putting her in her place where she belongs.
This is what probably happened. She told her staff to look over his decisions for anything that she could use against him. Of course this left her completely unprepared to deal with his being superbly prepared. Once again my state of residence shows how poorly it performs when selecting senators.
No she is not a lawyer, she is a mentally unstable left winged politician and has been for YEARS.
Kelly Lee, you care to put some truth in your statement? Or are you the typical CA moronic citizen, believe everything that cnn and the leftists mouth!!!
but she got rich by being an idiot and using the system. In short she and her husband are crooked
Feinstein, Pelosi, Warren and Schummer all need to retire.

That’s so right!! The liberals kept him from doing his job!! His hands were tied, they deserve what they get! The liberal mental disorder continues!!!
