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:
She is not very bright about many issues,,, just a good old boy politician… except she is a women…
Running her mouth is all
Peat and repeat cause there is nothing else to say.
She’s a bag of trash- f**e$#%&!@*politician that’s gotten rich in office
They are too lazy to look up anything that would help a Republican.
I would be ashamed of her, she knows nothing.
The Democrats really showed their true colors in this hearing. Judge Gorsuch was 100% qualified to sit on the Supreme Court. The Democrats time after time had their butts handed to them by the Judge. Stupid questions and trick questions and each time they came out with egg on their face. Americans need to remember this when they go to the polls and vote. Senator Feinstein and her husband belong behind bars for all of the corruption while she has been in Congress. Boils down to this…..the Democrats are corrupt and need to be held accountable for all of their criminal activities against our country!!!!
She never did know anything, waste of tax payer money.
Feinstein is a senile pathetic liberal$#%&!@* Term limits needed
she is a total embarrassment to any American
