Trump could end up replacing 3, even 4 Supreme Court justices in his first term

[TalkRadio1]

President Donald Trump reportedly thinks he can remake nearly half of the nation's highest court in his image by making four separate appointments during his first term — and so far, he's already half right.

Former Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia died in February 2016, but then-President Barack Obama's moderate nominee was shut out until after the presidential election.

Trump quickly filled the vacancy with Neil Gorsuch, a conservative who has already played a key role in a very consequential Supreme court term.

On Wednesday, Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy announced that he will retire on July 31. Trump is already looking for a replacement.

It's possible.

Then again, Chief Justice Roberts was going to be a reliable conservative vote...



Now it looks as though he will take over the Kennedy seat.

The next nominee will have to wait until next year for Senate approval.

That's not a demand born of Democrat frustration, it's a simple statement of fact. The current Senate is not capable of doing anything at all.

Two more real originalists ought to do the trick as long as Thomas hangs around.

Roberts took an immediate dump on his reputation with the ACA vote. He'll spend the rest of his career trying to retrieve it.

Allah bless Harry Reid.

Nope. He will only move into the Kennedy seat which means he will always be the pivotal factor on every issue and he seems to side with the NE Corridor Cocktail Circuit.

That's why we need two more real conservatives.

The Conservatives of the Bush era and the past were not cut from the same cloth as the conservatives of this Orange Demon era. He has a knack for picking the most partisan shills.

A Bush or Reagan era conservative is not the same as a Trumpette.


I wish you rightists will get that straight into your skulls.

We are living in different times now. Most of you are about to pass soon, so you wouldn't have to feel the repercussions. But us Generation Xs and Ys and Zs will.

And hopefully a REAL President will get them all impeached and removed on Ethics grounds.

Gosuck has already proved to have no morals simply by taking the post after Mitch The Bitch perverted the process.

Mortality tables for diabetic wise Latinas say she doesn't make it to the end of a hypothetical Trump second term.

Not being "progressive" enough to shit on the US Constitution in the name of communism isn't an ethical issue.

Sorry....maybe you should consider moving to a place that hates freedom more.
