The reality I think is that Trump doesn't give a flying flip about the Supreme Court. Just wait until this conservative leaning court who cares about upholding the Constitution starts to push back on Trump's crazy and unconstitutional crap and we'll start seeing the temper tantrums and "betrayal" tweets, as if the Supreme Court is supposed to be bowing down to him. It's coming.
    Time will tell. I was thinking hopefully his pick means he isn't listening to Banon as much as everyone is saying he is. The media was also saying really nice things about the pick. I think that will change though because the dems. have already started going after the guy hard.

    I hope they stick to policy. This is probably policy but Pelosi said something to the effect if he gets in we will have bad water, women will be second class, women's rights taken away, big corporations will screw the little guy and we will have to gasp for air or something like that.

      Yeah, Gorsuch will get through but I expect those dems to forget they all voted for him in 2006 and put up a good fight.

      I love how the protesters at the supreme court had a blank line to fill in anyone that Trump picked...

        I think most of my conservative friends are back to shopping at Target.

I think I would go Independent just because Trump won as a republican, but then the dem. leadership keeps talking and acting as idiotic as Trump so I guess I won't make the effort to change my registration yet.

          I looked up the Judiciary committee on ping, I won't use google anymore and to my dismay Sanders and Warren are not on the committee. At least Franken is.
          I have no idea what your beef is with google, but I love how you call it "ping."

            Congrats, every now and then I slop in a mispeled word to see if anyone catches it.

              Also, for those a little surprised that Trump is trying to do things he said he would, it's about time to start taking him literally. That's the type of single minded, linear, black and white thinking he does.
              I think Trump is a fool, but I don't think he is that big of a fool. Nominating Supreme Court justices may be the longest lasting impact a president has on this country. I couldn't bring myself to vote for Trump, but the Supreme Court nominee weighed heavily in his favor for many conservatives who held their nose to vote for him. They got what they asked for as this seems to be a person who is very much of the Scalia mold.

                He's going to bail on Gorsuch as soon as a future muslim ban is struck down or any other unconstitutional thing Trump tries to do. That's what I meant. I didn't mean to say Trump doesn't understand the political ramifications of why nominate one person over another. On the contrary -- it's all power and politics to him. He thinks he's appointing someone to be a rubber stamp for whatever he wants and he's going to throw a tantrum when that doesn't happen. The finer distinctions of what is Constitutional and correct legally isn't really Trump's thing, which it will be for a federal judge with a record like Gorsuch. A pick like this will surely come back to bite him, but yes, Trump very much understands he's pleasing the conservatives politically.

                • Oh boy, Pelosi gets asked by a mother of a son that was tortured and set on fire at the CNN town hall which of her babies or grandkids she would give up to make room for an illegal...

                  I am guessing she would sacrifice all of them if that means more votes for the dems.

                    Sancutary cities annoy the heck out of me. Follow the laws!

                    Pelosi is something else. What is she even saying here?
                    If you breathe air, drink water, eat food, take medicine, or in any other way interact with the courts, this is a very bad decision,” Pelosi said. “Well out of the mainstream of American legal thought.”
                    What has Gorsuch done to my air quality?

                        I went to Bing to see how the ratings are. Somehow I ended up in the political talk on the LSU board. Wow, they make this site look like a Warner/Pelosi cheer squad.

                            LOL. BING sent you to a LSU sports page for political talk?

                                Most of the time I think Pelosi is drunk or on drugs... but she seems very representative of the people that voted for her.
