And Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) will announce their opposition to Trump's nominee Tuesday at 7pm.

Unfortunatey, we will probably have a lot of that around here too.

Of course they will. This is going to be showdown time. We hold the majority. The question is; will the RINO's in the Senate stand together with Trump and get this nomination through or are they going to stand with the DEMS? If Trump's nomination goes through of course the liberal leftist mental midgets will hold protests again.

Whether or not we like it, the fact is that TRUMP is our president now and the media is going to nit pic everything he does for as long as he remains in that office. WE can either join with the media in trying to tear him down or we can take the media and their lies on at every opportunity!

I will always come down on the side of taking them on at every opportunity. Others will make their own choices.

What are the odds of Trump choosing someone from the list he was handed during the campaign? I say 2:3 - 40%.

I'll say it's about 3:1 - 75%

He is not only our President but he is our President under the GOP umbrella. So far, he has made some fairly conservative moves and what I find troubling are there in here that put him down at every opportunity regardless of what he says or does. Equally troubling are reports of the GOP in Congress not backing him. I don't think he should be given carte blanche on everything but certainly we should be standing with him on his conservative approach to terrorism, illegal immigration, abortion, the 2nd Amendment and the Supreme Court nomination. IMHO if he nominates a conservative justice and he/she is approved; we've won a very significant and huge battle!

So far he has kept to his word and I am much more optimistic and I am going to say 90%. However, I only give the RINO's and DEMS a 40% chance in agreeing with his nomination.

I have to wait and see who it is first.

Some are saying Trump will choose Hardiman, to continue his war against the first amendment

So far he has kept to his word . . .

His word has nothing to do with it since he never said he would pick someone from that list. He said he would pick a person like someone on that list.

Interesting because Hardiman is the one I saw Trump supporters had the most concern from when the early list came out because on some issues he is moderate (good on 2nd Amendment though).

I guess we'll see. Hardiman sits on the same court as Trump's sister.
