The fat lady has sung...the votes are there before the election!!

All the hand wringing by the left...to no avail. Elections have consequences...as Obummer says!! Another victory for Trump and America!!

Lindsey Graham: We’ve Got the Votes to Confirm, and It’s Happening Before the Election

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaN8INP6eOQ

Lindsey Graham put out a statement earlier regarding the open Supreme Court seat the Republicans are currently looking to fill. He cited the treatment of Justice Brett Kavanaugh back in 2018 while also confirming that he supports moving forward this time around. But it was later in the evening on Sean Hannity’s show that he really made news.

Graham announced not only that hearings will be held, but that the GOP already has the votes lined up to confirm whoever the nominee is.

This is big news which was largely confirmed by commitments made by Corey Gardner and Chuck Grassley that they support hearings and a vote. Given Gardner is in a tough election, there’s no doubt he’s ultimately going to vote to confirm. Grassley was never much of a question either, though it was good to see him put down the rumors early.

Surprisingly, Mitt Romney might even be on board.


If there’s any truth to that, this thing is over before it has even began. Yes, there’s still hearings to come up, and yes Democrats are going to smear whoever the nominee is, but it’s hard to imagine them landing enough shots on someone like Amy Coney Barrett to derail her confirmation. Romney, for all his flaws, will almost certainly not blow his entire political career up, including what legacy he may have left, just to side with Democrats here. Impeachment was a different situation, though no less inexcusable.

That Graham is willing to make this statement so soon bodes very well for the coming weeks. The fact that Trump is waiting until Friday to nominate also gives an air of confidence that this is going to happen, one way or the other.

Now, to be sure, Democrats are still going to throw everything they’ve got at the wall. There will be riots, there will be baseless accusations, and there will be lots of teeth gnashed. Republicans just need to ignore it and keep their eye on the ball. This time, they have more cushion compared to Kavanaugh’s confirmation. There is no Jeff Flake that can attempt to blow up everything after a tearful encounter in an elevator. Even if Romney flips, Republicans still have the votes because VP Mike Pence breaks the tie.

It is still disappointing that political cowards like Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins so quickly waved the white flag when the other side held zero leverage, but that’s par for the course for them. Whether Collins wins or loses in November is no longer a concern of mine. She’s gone too far this time, and I do not find the “but she votes with the GOP 70% of the time” talking point very persuasive anymore. On the biggest issues, she’s completely unreliable. At the very least, she could have just stayed quiet and let Mitch McConnell work here. Instead, she interjected herself before the nominee was even chosen.

In the end, if Trump gets this done, it’ll be an incredible capstone to his first term. If Graham is right, it’s going to happen.

LOLLING!

From the sounds of things, beebsy, you want Trump to fuck the AMERICAN judiciary so hard that the only way forward is to rebuild. Maybe the only way to restore civility and morality to your vulgar country is to tear it down and start over.

Seems like that’s what the WSNDs have been busy doing. Well the jokes on Yous, boys.

Thanks to Trumpleforeskin, the USEh is in danger of falling out of the top 10 nations in the Western Hemisphere.

Enjoy your holidays in Turkey. That’s one of the exotic destinations that will allow Yanks admission. Not winners.

One Pinkley star for yous.

and just as suddenly .. it's 4 stars.


let's discuss troll tactics for a bit. trolls like to start threads and in their self serving arrogance instantly anoint their thread as 5 stars .. excellent. this of course is self serving bullshit however quite effective because it then requires several down votes to what it really is .. terrible. in the same manner, most normal posters do not "self-rate" their threads leaving said thread vulnerable to a troll "down vote" of one star .. terrible. this also requires several up votes to rate it as excellent.


this is the tactic of both moletroll and hummertroll and several other trolls. hummertroll has just executed this troll tactic on this thread. i of course have counter voted him. kinda like an election for president.




there is of course one tactic the trolls cannot do .. what i have just done. the TWK double like. because they can't figure out how i can do it



BAHHAHHAHAAAAAA

All that energy to do before the election because the fear they are losing the senate and the w house
Dems fundraising since her death is enormous adding to the already big lead cash wise in the senate races
I would of waited until after Election Day

Use it to turn out
If dems win senate they will simply add two or three judges to the circuit
And kill the filibuster

The prize and power is the senate not the seat

the leftists certainly can raise money

most corporate chieftains, wall street, the billionaire class, what had been the swells in manhattan or the hamptons and don't forget hollywood and the still monied unions, especially governmental unions, can and do throw their money around for the leftists

trump's support by the deplorables, families, the middle class and lower middle class working americans don't have that ability

you can probably name trump's donors that have that ability on one hand or maybe one hand and one foot
