Donald Trump released Wednesday a list of 11 potential picks for the U.S. Supreme Court, and at least one of them doesn’t seem to like the billionaire businessman too much.

Throughout nearly the entire primary process, Texas Supreme Court Justice Don Willett, who posts fairly uninhibitedly to Twitter, has been openly mocking Trump, now the presumptive Republican nominee, on the social media platform.
 
In fact, Willett’s Twitter profile is somewhat of a comprehensive library of anti-Trump jokes.

Who would the Donald
Name to #SCOTUS? The mind reels.

Just imagine if Trump were an editorial cartoonist.

Interestingly, for a man who tweets fairly often, the state Supreme Court justice has not posted anything since being named by Trump.

Interesting.

I follow Judge Willett on twitter.  This is the pic that he posted on the tweet regarding William Shatner and Trump Airlines:

A classic picture.

The Trump campaign sure looks foolish for not doing some research before compiling their list. Makes me  think maybe Trump made the list himself instead of one of his minions.

Your thinking is wrong. The Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation provided the list.

http://www.wdsu.com/politics/trump-unveils-his-potential-supreme-court-nominees/39611450

Mike Lee's brother, Thomas is on the list.

Trump told Republican House leadership during a meeting on Capitol Hill last week that he would come out with a list, assisted by conservative groups The Federalist Society and the Heritage Foundation, of judicial nominations he would make if he had the opportunity to fill a vacancy on the Supreme Court, according to a source familiar with the meeting.

At the time, Trump also said the members present at the meeting should submit names to him and he would put them on the list.

Consider some things here.
The odds nobody on the Trump team knew about this is Judges opinions on Trump, his tweets etc is impossible.
That he still put this guy on the list indicates he is there because of his performance as a Conservative Judge.
This shows superior Executive skill, not incompetence.
This also shows Trump is doing whats best for the country not himself.

Attempting to reason with neverTrumps is an exercise in futility.

Are you for real? How can anyone take you serious?

It is truly amazing the way Trump supporters rationalize Trump's missteps. First the list is touted as coming from Trump, then it was made by Sessions, now it is from an outside group.

Whoever included a judge who mocks Trump is either incompetent or deliberately screwing with him.

Trump puts nothing before Trump. Never has, never will.

So you believe the Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation are incompetent or screwing with him?

[A-Lert]

The man's incompetence knows no bounds.  He is an embarrassment.

Not nearly as embarrassing as delusional, uninformed  neverTrumps.

Instead of criticizing Trump's critics, how about you respond to what Trump's chosen Supreme Court nominee has to say?

How about you reading the thread and seeing who chose the prospective justices. I posted the information for those too lazy to look, but even that apparently isn't enough.

[mountaineer]

I did. I saw. I'm not lazy. You still didn't respond to my request.

What purpose would it serve?  The same things are posted here repeatedly day after day.

Maybe you would like to read this; http://www.politicususa.com/2016/03/23/trump-authorizes-heritage-foundation-nominate-scotus-justices.html

This is an excerpt;

What Trump is proposing in outsourcing the Executive branch’s constitutional duty to the Heritage Foundation is effectively giving the Koch brothers authority to decide the makeup of the Supreme Court. There is very little, if any, difference between the Heritage Foundation and any of the Koch brothers’ network of conservative organizations including the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), Americans for Prosperity, State Policy Network (SPN), Cato Institute, and Manhattan Institute to name but a few. The Koch’s also fund nearly all of the evangelical anti-women’s rights organizations that Heritage supports.

For the uninformed, Heritage Foundation fits the description of a stridently “conservative ‘belief’ tank” and is notorious for “its unorthodox approach to mathematics.” The ‘belief tank’ is led by a raging “teabagger” and former right-wing extremist senator from South Carolina, Jim DeMint.   DeMint is a madman, so it is no surprise that the equally mad Trump met with him last week in Washington D.C.; likely to officially authorize Heritage to begin the decision-making process in who the Kochs want on the Supreme Court.

It is not a surprise Trump would demure to the Heritage Foundation to choose Supreme Court justices. Like Trump, Heritage is in the business of hating anything remotely close to adhering to the Constitution, and hews closely to the Koch’s abhorrence of taxation and the federal government.

Difficult differentiating the hatred of the neverTrumps and liberals.

Is that the excuse you used for why Trump hand picked a white separatist in CA to be a delegate?

Your response is nonsensical. Please stop playing the victim and actually address the issues.
Or perhaps you'd understand if I threw in some emoticons.    :dx1:

Does that help you?

[A-Lert]

Your response is nonsensical.

Nothing seems to make sense to the neverTrumps. Lay your hate on the Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation.

Back atcha, slick. When you get around to addressing the issues, rather than just insulting those who disagree with you, let me know.
Better yet, don't.

That guy worked really hard doing robocalls for Trump in Feb.

 "The white race is dying out in America and Europe because we are afraid to be called 'racist.'  Donald Trump is not racist, but Donald Trump is not afraid. Don't vote for a Cuban. Vote for Donald Trump."

Slick? How old are you? The issue is Trumps list of nominees for SCOTUS justice. They were chosen by the Federalist Society and the Heritage Foundation. One is Sen. Mike Lee's brother Thomas. Another is a judge in Texas who has mocked Trump. His choice, free speech. Not too bright an idea IMO, but he's free to criticize. Now what?
