I'd want to know more about her first. What if she's like - "mom and dad were such squares, paranoid about communism and stuff, always looking over their shoulder. Meh, it's not bad like they say...". I've seen too many immigrant kids not get it once they're in the US
She seems decent. The fact is we need a woman because of the willingness of leftist woman to lie about sexual assault.
Doesn't seem like a ton of young conservative female judges, with large records to choose from unfortunately. That will change in the next few years though...gotta get our man re-elected though.
If Trump nominates Barbara Lagoa, the Democrats are going to alienate their Hispanic voters if they go against her. Since Florida is in play, she is a great pick based on her beliefs and a politically astute pick based on swaying many Hispanics in Florida and elsewhere. Murk and Collins will be hard pressed to vote against a minority female and she will counteract Sotomayor.
Trump is already winning with Hispanics. We don't have to play identity politics because our policies actually help the people.
It also kind of undermines the messaging of the campaign, and the right in general, that MERIT is the correct deciding factor for all of God's equal children.
If this situation forces us to pick based even a little bit on identity and not entirely on merit, then unfortunately the left is winning.

What is her stance on the 2A?
This is my first question about any of these candidates. I want a judge that thinks every gun law is an infringement.
...and liberals flee CA, and become liberals elsewhere.. and Ilhan Omar fled Somalia.
Identity politics is supposed to be a conservative argument now?
Marco Rubio.
If this is all she is, then no thanks.

The fact that this sentiment is being expressed non-jokingly among conservatives is a problem.

I disagree. It's not simply a matter of pushing anyone through that will be agreeable to the GOP swamp. It's not a yes-or-no proposition.
If the wrong person gets appointed, then there will be ANOTHER trojan horse to add to Roberts. 5-4 against, is worse than 4-4.
