Gorsuch to SCOTUS

I could almost feel it; just like that, all Trump's hamfisted bigoted antics and polarization were forgiven by the vast majority of Republicans. Like it has for so many issues for Republicans, the right-wing drumbeat that the Supreme Court is the most important thing has become adopted well beyond the base - I expect his approval to go up quite a bit. And not a jot of comeuppance for the GOP's unconscionable gamesmanship with Garland.

I don't know much about the guy, but from what I can tell he stands out in believing in a Court that does not interfere with the President, but that also interferes with executive agencies. Oy.

Freeper joy is usually repetitive and boring, but luckily you can always find some side issue where there paranoia takes the fore. Here, they fret because the New York Times has an opinion piece that liberals shouldn't filibuster the guy. Watch as they struggle to integrate this into their black-and-white reality.

MrEdd knows that the subset of New York Times pieces Free Republic publishes are taken as marching orders to Democrats.

Libs gonna fold like a cheap suit on this one...?

They enabled the end of the filibuster.
They have to make losing sound dignified.

RushIsMyTeddyBear reassures her fellows that this is some kind of trickery:

NY Times leftist supporting Gorsuch. Maybe we should be worried.

Maybe a ‘tar baby’. IOW.....’concern trolling’.

Repeal 16-17 takes what has become the party line - that the real fight is the next one.

Should I be worried that the NY Times is endorsing this guy?

No, the New York Slimes is simply telling Senate Democrats to hold their powder until Trump is nominating someone to replace Kennedy or one of the Liberal Justices.

Sarah Barracuda crows that this makes everything else he does not matter:

..now imagine, if the NeverTrumpers had won and Hillary Clinton had been able to make the pick tonight what we would be looking at..Thank God Trump is President!

bryan999 is still on the idea that the Democratic Party is in existential danger, I guess not watching the news lately:

Might be a signal to not attack, and let this one pass... bigger battles ahead. This one is a lose-lose for libs no matter how they play.

And if you think about it, the RATs really can’t fight without the necessary fortitude and willing manpower. Right now they are seriously depleted of both.. ! Might be best to step aside...

Or maybe not, I guess we’ll see.

Like so many Freepers, jcon40 just wants revenge by making liberals sad. He calls it 'restoring law and order.'

Haha. They’re worried Trump won’t follow the law???

From the news media, states, sanctuary cities, anarchists etc who are urging others to not follow the law...

I can show you what not follow the law looks like but I’m an American who just voted for a man who ran on restoring law and order.

These disposable A$$w!pe$ are stained up in the head
