I’m thinking he might use it to try and drive out more of the base, vote him in or you’ll lose your pick. Trump doesn’t care about a conservative court one whip, it’s all about winning. Remember he’s desperate.

he’s nominating a woman, to make the democrats show the country they don’t actually like women as much as they claim to. right before the election. it’s a no win situation for the democrats, a complete disaster. it was very risky for her not to step down during the obama presidency.

there is no way that hes going to roll the dice on him winning and in the gop maintaining the senate. i doubt 5 presidents in history have had the chance to shape the next 30 years that he now has. you don’t pass that up. this is possibly more
important than his re election.

and having the nation watching senate democrats smear and attack a female/minority nominee, will give him lots of political capital in the election.

he’s not desperate, he’s to cocky to think he has a chance of losing. you still don’t get him.

if i had to choose between replacing her with a conservative or trump getting re elected, id choose tilting the court to the right.

It’s important to you, not to Trump. There’s no guarantee he’d even have the votes and a loss right before the election would seriously deflate a lot of enthusiasm in the base. Won’t be able to blame that on a rigged election either.

this is the most pro life president in history. he doesn’t want to replace ginsburg with a conservative?

you’re right, he might not have the votes, which is why i said very clearly that not having the votes is the only way he doesn’t nominate someone. i completely agree a thumbs down vote on. a nominee would be a disaster before the election. obviously.

if he has the votes, this is a disaster for the democrats. in addition to having the court shift, they are in a no win situation. if they give his female nominee the kavanaugh treatment just before the election, undecided voters may get turned off. if they don’t give her the kavanaugh treatment, they run the risk of angering the progressive wing of their base, who aren’t thrilled with biden already.

a disaster. their only hope is trump not having the votes. which could
happen, especially with susan colins up for re election. that's the democrats only hope.

what does joe manchin do? he voted for kavanaugh.
