NM11046 Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 23 hours ago, TGHusker said: I don't expect Trump to select a moderate in the style of a Kennedy. Based on past experience, I expect Trump to go full bore as far right as he can. You all know as a conservative, I like conservative judges ... but as a balance. We need liberal, moderate, & conservative judges to bring balance to any argument that goes before the court to protect the interest of all people in a diverse nation like ours. Trump may try to make it more palatable by nominating someone of color or a female to the court - but that would surprise me as I think he still goes full conservative white guy. He may try that when/if Ginsberg retires. an article for reference https://www.cnbc.com/2018/06/27/anthony-kennedy-retiring-from-supreme-court.html No he wont. Link to comment

TGHusker Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Senator Mike Lee under consideration. I'm sure we'll see many articles like this on various potential candidates. Lee's nomination would not surprise me. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-28/trump-is-said-to-weigh-senator-mike-lee-for-high-court-vacancy Link to comment

TGHusker Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 ^^^ that is pretty amazing. Amazing that we are just now finding this out. Maybe Trump was much closer and connected to The Swamp than he led us to believe. No wonder the Swamp just seems to be getting deeper and wider as the Swamp is enriching Trump Inc. 2 Link to comment
commando Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 imagine if you will....trump get impeached and it ends up going to the supreme court. should the judges he nominates be able to vote on whether he is guilty or not? would they have to recuse themselves? 2 Link to comment

Moiraine Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Mueller subpoenaed Deutsche Bank. Just a reminder. They were also fined over Russian oligarch money laundering. 2 Link to comment
