Brett Kavanaugh.

Thoughts?

I'll be the bad guy.

I know as a conservative im supposed to be happy with anyone on that list, but this guy has a few things that rub me the wrong way.

Im thinking maybe trump knows his first pick wont make it thru so he picks kavanaugh as the throw away guy. He knows the dems stopping him will boost gop turnout in the midterms, so then after the red wave, he will be able to put forth who he really wants, amy barrett.

But thats just my opinion, and i cld be totally wrong about the guy...

I'm afraid this was done because of RINOS like Susan Collins. We were likely not to get a single dem vote no matter who it was which meant we needed all the pubs on board...

Q PATRIOT!!!

Kavanaugh was vetted and highly recommended by both
the Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation,
yet for soul-knowing purists, that's insufficient. Hmm.......
For them, only his signature on the US Constitution suffices.
Suggest these malcontents and sore heads reflect on reality.
The left will do anything short of assassination to defeat
Trump; so any discontent from the right will be used as a
battering ram against anyone that Trump nominates!!!

Not my first pick, but most conservatives say he is conservative. Therefore, I will take a wait and see approach. Not unexpectedly, the left is unglued and that is fun.

Mine either, but I get it. Apparently, he's what is called an "Originalist", he doesn't consider precedent when deciding, doesn't refer to previous cases or their appeals to make up his mind.
From what I've read, he only looks to the law for the answers. If this is true, then Trump made a stellar decision, but then, that's exactly what they said about Roberts back in the day.

I see this Guy as somewhat of a moderate BUT perhaps a strict Constitutionalist which is why some of the few remaining true Liberals (Not leftists) applaud him. He has a reputation for being FAIR and a reputation for adherence to Constitutional principals, he says he will not legislate from the bench  (we'll see) I am skeptical of ANYONE who comes out of the District of Columbia CJS system having experienced the idiocy firsthand for so many years, BUT he seems to have a few good ones in his background.

You can't judge it by the number of Leftist tears, the gnashing of teeth and wails of agony, they are going to do that no matter WHO Trump picks.

I'm guessing Amy would have been too much for the left to tolerate this time around, Trump is gambling that Ginsberg doesn't wake up any day now and then Amy gets the Nod.

This is why I am withholding judgement. I am thinking Trump purposely went to a more moderate nominee to make the democrats look crazier. Trump has them figured out.

Just don't let him rub you the "right" way, please.  Hey do you have a brother named Mike ?

Back on topic, hopefully Trump is being savvy here.  Kavanaugh and Barrett are probably his 2 favorites, and it's much more expedient to go with Kavanaugh today for a quick win.  Better for the elections, it won't let the left rally their totally insane weirdos all that much.

Barrett for Ruth Buzzy Darth Vader Ginzo will be a show to behold.  Save the true end-of-the-world battle royale with the left, for the Ruthie spectacle.

This seems like a good thread to thumb nail with yes' and nay's about Kavanaugh and his rulings. Here is one on net neutrality which is encouraging:
