It wouldn't have mattered: President Trump could've nominated Mahatma Gandhi and the Left still would have screeched.
Who Trump picked mattered so little to the Left that they literally started without him. Long before Trump strode into the White House East Room on Monday night to name Appeals Court Judge Brett Kavanaugh as his nominee, the Women's March put out this release: "In response to Donald Trump's nomination of XX to the Supreme Court of the United States, the Women's March released the following statement ... " That's right: They just put a couple of Xs in there as placeholders.
At noon on Monday — nine hours before Trump's announcement — Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) put out a statement announcing he would oppose the nomination. No, Casey would not carefully weigh the selection, as voters had elected him to do. He wouldn't hear Kavanaugh out, ask probing questions, then make a considered judgment. Quoting Lincoln, Casey said he "was not elected to genuflect to the hard Right, who are funded by corporate America." Ah, corporate America, that evil entity that employs 90% of Americans. What scum.
Hours before the nomination, ABC News wrote this on Twitter: "Tonight on Nightline, @TerryMoran reports on the controversial Supreme Court Justice pick and the possible implications for the country."
Leftists and liberals everywhere had already written their press releases, accusing the nominee — it didn't matter who it was — of hating women and minorities, immigrants and gays. They'd already declared Trump's nominee would set back the course of human history with Neanderthal thinking, would be in the back pocket of those evil corporations. He'd strip health care from millions, kill the unions, and run roughshod over civil rights.
And so it all came to pass, on cue.
“In selecting Judge Brett Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court, President Trump has put reproductive rights and freedoms and health care protections for millions of Americans on the judicial chopping block," Sen. Chuck Schumer said in an email at 9:07 p.m. — minutes after Trump had named Kavanaugh. “This nomination could alter the balance of the court in favor of powerful special interests and against working families for a generation, and would take away labor, civil, and human rights from millions of Americans."
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi also read from the same talking points, calling the Kavanaugh nomination "a clear and disrespectful assault on the fundamental rights of women and on the quality, affordable health care of the American people."
"Judge Kavanaugh's long history of opposition to the full, fundamental right of every woman to make her own decisions about her body, family and health care poses a grave threat to women's rights and to our founders' promise of liberty and justice for all," she said. "If he proves as eager an executor of the president's bitter campaign to overturn Roe v. Wade and sabotage Americans' health care as his record suggests, a woman's right to choose will be repealed and the health coverage and economic security of 130 million Americans with pre-existing conditions will be in grave peril."
The rhetoric only got more purple from there.
Jim Dean, the chairman of Democracy for America, said Trump’s nominee will “directly lead to the deaths of countless women.”
“If Brett Kavanaugh survives the confirmation process, he will rapidly advance a fringe right agenda on the court that will accelerate plutocratic control of our economy and politics, actively undermine the steps our country must take towards greater racial equity, and directly lead to the deaths of countless women with the dismantling of abortion rights," he wrote.
The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, charged with helping the party win back the Senate, joined the fray. "Kavanaugh is a far-right conservative who is known to be hostile to women’s rights and prioritizes corporations over people," the group said in an email.
And the DSCC wanted one thing: Money. "Chip in $1 to help elect Senate Democrats," said the email.
Tom Perez, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, wanted a bit more.
"Chip in $3 to help Democrats regain a majority in the Senate this November. The only way it will be possible is if we work together — starting right now," he wrote. "You better believe that with Brett Kavanaugh on the bench, Roe v. Wade, affordable health care, labor unions, and civil rights will all be on the chopping block," he said.
For his part, Kavanaugh said he'd do just what he was nominated to do: Uphold the Constitution.
"A judge must be independent and must interpret the law, not make the law," Kavanaugh said at the White House with his family by his side. "A judge must interpret statutes as written. And a judge must interpret the Constitution as written, informed by history and tradition and precedent."
He added: "Tomorrow, I begin meeting with members of the Senate, which plays an essential role in this process. I will tell each senator that I revere the Constitution. I believe that an independent judiciary is the crown jewel of our constitutional republic. If confirmed by the Senate, I will keep an open mind in every case and I will always strive to preserve the Constitution of the United States and the American rule of law."
But although it was the first time the nominee had spoken out, it was already too late. Liberals and leftists everywhere had already made up their minds.
Sad.
Poster Comment:
Another of many Democrat-Communist assholes that infect the senate!
Democrats in power in Congress and in many state and local offices, either support the stalking and bullying of administration officials, remain silent about it, or make lukewarm statements in opposition to it.
Example, Nancy Pelosi. She offered a small bit of criticism of Maxine Waters, then some black political groups criticized Pelosi. What did Nancy do? Issue a statement about what an important party leader Ms. Waters is.
It's as though all Democrats and many Republicans have sold their souls to Satan and are, unfortunately, zombies.
Diversity IS NOT what made America great, rather it will be its undoing!
Pathetic, in my view. (1 image)

I was watching NBC last night. Exactly five minutes before Trump was to speak live, they rolled a chyron at the bottom of the screen announcing Trump's pick.
They couldn't wait five fucking minutes to let Trump make the announcement himself. It's like NBC was saying, "Here's his pick. Now you don't have to waste your time watching and listening to Trump. Go do something else."

Before November, Justice Kavanaugh will be sitting at the bench on the Supreme Court. A $3 donation and a Senate majority will not change that.

It was easy for them to do because those are the very people THEY hate the most. If they weren't useful for votes and campaign contributions,the left would be very happy to be herding them into labor camps,and they WILL herd them into labor camps if they ever obtain the power they are trying to get.
Royalty ain't got squat on lefties when it comes to elitism and brutality on the peons.
In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
