Who else here thinks that Trump is messing with the media by letting them think he'll pick ACB?

I've wondered the same as well. The Democrats have had a long time to prepare for Barrett.
That said, it sounds like we have all the votes locked up already, so it doesn't matter who he chooses, she's in. If he likes ACB best, she will get the nod.
There are a lot of democrats that really like ACB. Not good.
There are? Who?
Rush Limbaugh spoke about it yesterday during the third hour of his program. He quoted a NY Post piece that had a lot of liberal lawyers saying they love her and that she is hands down the best person to replace RGB. In addition Noah Feldman(Trump hater) calls her a truly brilliant lawyer. Also it seems that the Notre Dame elite really loves her. Couple that with the fact that she recently helped uphold the Governor of Illinois unconstitutional lockdown order(7th circuit ruling), i say fuck ACB. Justice Lagoa please.
Well said trump212121, if far left liberals love her then we don't need her. They go after any slightly conservative nomination so I would disregard that. Lagoa for the win!
Could it just be a tactic to get us to not want her? I know personally I go on Reddit all the time and talk about how much I want vote my mail.
Hi there fellow conservapede, do you hate ACB as much as I do?!
I like Lagoa also. A latina justice pick will help nationwide, not just in Florida.
I really hope he bait and switches to Logoa. They are building their case for ACB, you know they are.
By going to Logoa....I hate bringing election politics to the Supreme Court...but the Floridian daughter of Cuban immigrants being confirmed just before the Election....that's a feather in Trump's hat.
When they ree over this...it will be especially bad optics, as it makes THEM look both sexist and racist. Them throwing a fit over a female child of cuban immigrants being appointed....it will make them look very bad, and it will not help the left secure more latino votes, it won't help them secure more Floridian votes.
It will only help Donald Trump and hurt the Dems.
This.
We need someone that has experienced communism in there to defend our country. Worst case she'll be a snake and we're lost regardless.
Best case she will help in voter fraud case to avoid the next dictatorship of the US. The Cuban will most likely be it but who knows at this rate.
Like who? Last time she was confirmed the democrats hated her and went after her hard during their questioning.
ACB has a Clinton connection more direct than Roberts.
Would love to see the sauce as well
See her Haitian children.
I don't know if you realize, but Affirmative action is sexist and racist.
1). She stated, as a devout catholic if the pope publicized an opinion regarding a case, she would have to recuse herself.
2) adopting trophy Haitian nignogs like Sandra Bullock and Angelina Jolie also did, wanting to proclaim membership in the Virtue Signaling Church of Good Intentions (hell paved with yada yada), is a fair indication she is a typical “muh feelz over common sense” female who should not be deciding important matters that require logic, foresight, and acute discernment. Those two?
No she didn't, this has been thoroughly debunked.
Well, I guess we see why you really hate her.
Time to deport you back to DU.
2 adopted Haitian children?
Yep. We still have a lot of Shillary Clintons too.
Fienswine...
And that is the only thing that is for sure - a female pick. A male pick would immediately be accused of sexual assault.
We don't really have a choice tbh - the machinations at that level of govt are simply out of reach of a normal man's hands.
I think he may pick Rushing. She is 38. She would probably be the youngest since some early 19th century judge. That would make them go ape shit. It would be all they can focus on.
She clerked for Gorsuch and Thomas, is young, and smoking hot? Never heard of her, but sounds great!
Do you need LasiK?
She has even less of a track record than ACB. Doesn't mean she's bad, but doesn't mean she's good either. I get that we want someone young, but at least ACB has written a LOT of scholarly articles that give us some idea of where she stands. The one thing we absolutely DO NOT want is another Souter.
Exactly. We have zero Idea of what's "actually". Going on... Let's chill and quit telling him how to do his job.
I thought this might be a possibility. The fact that ACB was at the WH a few days ago seemed like a convenient leak. But I think POTUS will pick someone who was vetted recently to save time.
POTUS said in one of his chopper pressers that he would be personally meeting with the top candidates.
he said in today's presser that he doesn't necessarily meet everyone, like he hasn't met the cuban.
I'm still hoping for Dredd.
I would personally go vote in the Senate myself for Judge Dredd. I mean, I might have to remove a senator who happens to look similar to me but I would do it.
Ok, but only if it's the Karl Urban version.
I kept watching that movie and thinking, "look, a vertical version of Detroit".
McConnell and senate repubs know who it is. Its why romney and murk have appeared to sign on. If McConnell didnt think one of th nominations would get thru at this point he would tell Trump. That's a big part of who it will be
No All Cops Bastards?
"No , All Cops Bastards"
It's like a shittier version of that one Simpsons skit
Be me, this morning:

I want Lagoa for the SCOTUS. She seems a whole lot more trustworthy than some of the more "established" picks.
She looks good to me too. But honestly, I literally don't know enough about any of them. I'm trying to keep up but I'm not a lawyer and I know there are details and nuances I'm not seeing wrt all of them, and their positions and decisions. Whoever it is I look forward to the salt.
I like Lagoa based purely on the fact she's the only candidate we know of that has been a strong proponent of originalism, which means that a text should be read with the context of when it was written or said and not under modern context.
She’s the only one I trust to rule against communism. Every time. Lagoa = Maximo Alvarez.
She's made some negative comments about the Second Amendment, though.
Right. No penumbras and emanations.
Agreed. Cuban American from Florida...say no more. Fuck Communism.
1st gen. That means she grew up listening to her parents' stories about communism. Good sign.
Can confirm. This was my upbringing. If she is anything like me, there is no one and nothing that would shake her hatred for Marxism and tyranny. I’m hoping for Lagoa too!
Lagoa is a strong possibility. Both woman and minority appeals to those with political myopia and still believe in identity politics. ACB makes a suitable diversion for the MSM to chew on while he plays 4D chess getting Lagoa ready. I've heard the possible waffles on ACB based on her past record and associations, though none of it is solid enough to instantly discredit her.
Then again, black robes have a nasty habit of turning bright blue when they hit DC society, so shooting for someone who is as far Right as possible is our only hope. Don't give me any more "Moderate jurists". The Left doesn't hesitate to push for extremists, why should we? I want the equivalent of Scalia in heels. (ugh, that mental image doesn't sit well. Scratch that.)
He's meeting with Judge Lagoa on Friday. This is one day before he announces his decision. That would mean that she would be in town in DC when he makes the announcement. 2+2=5?
Here's hoping!
People are going to have a problem with this, but this is just my own reasoning, from my own experience...
I don't trust her because she's a Catholic. I WAS a Catholic, now I am not, and I wouldn't trust the former ME as a judge on the SCOTUS. The Catholic Mindset is... I don't know. There's the Mortal Sins, that you can't EVER do, there's the Venial Sins that you can say a couple Hail Marys over, it's a very transaction orientated mindset. Things are really variable, if you're willing to trade.
I want someone in that seat who's got an absolute view, no variation. THIS is Legal, THIS is NOT. The End.
I hope it's Trump Jr. Or some crazy shit like that. Need some alpha males up in there.
He said it's gonna be a woman though, Tiffany just graduated law school.
🤣 Imagine the salt! Now Ivanka...
Yeah. I mean I won't get my hopes up with an off the wall pick, just saying if he was really going to pick someone no one expects, might as well go with someone who actually loves this country. If Tiffany is half the person Trump is, then why not?
Could Ted Cruz vote for himself? Maybe the woman thing was big diversion.
Yep and I will be happy ACB doesn't get the nod - her behavior during the shutdown in Illinois is disqualifying.
preach brotha! It makes me so happy he picked Kav first and not the other way around, so we could see her true colors.
She also has the crazy eyes, and thats a huge turn off.
This isn't our first rodeo. We aren't cats chasing lasers. As the leftist media keeps chasing, we are sitting here at our memestations logically looking at all options. We know ACB ruled against conservatives, supports the Pope over the Constitution... she is not our gal.
It is going to likely be Lagoa because we are now sources familiar with the President's thinking. We know our guy.
Banana peel slip into perfect backflip with 10/10 landing every time.
I predict it will be Barbara Lagoa from Florida. DeSantis has Trump's ear.
lets hope so!
Let’s hope so. ACB is John Roberts with a vagina.
So,...John Roberts
Lagoa is the MAGA pick. Fuck the Commies.
Sydney fucking Powell.
Honestly, some of the stuff I'm seeing about Barrett's record on things like lockdowns definitely has me concerned.
She's a good way to twist the knife on the libs for Kavanaugh, but she might backfire on us long term, and we've gotta put those concerns above spite.
Somebody who always votes for state power will still be voting for state power when our opponents wield it.
Can’t say I want ACB, no one has shown she’s a constitutionalist
I always thought Bush II proposed Harriett Myers first to create a more dramatic groundswell for his next nomination, Alito. But he was not clever enough to do something like this.
I think it will be ACB and no, I don't think the left "LOVES" her anymore than Kavanaugh or Gorsuch. She's not a replacement for Scalia and Trump isn't looking for that. Maybe you're really mad at him for not being the hard core right wing kinda guy you wish he was. He's conservative ON CERTAIN THINGS but has a bigger picture in mind when he does stuff.
I bet he nominates a guy
Maybe Ted Cruz will change his gender like Lauren Southern did.
indeed
I am hoping so, the media will declare whomever he nominates to be literally Hitler anyway.
Man i hope so. I dont like her 2nd ammendment stance.
I thought the 2nd was the one issue she was totally solid on?
I've heard conflicting statements, but if that is true I would lean towards Barrett. Although Lagoa would guarantee Florida for Trump in November. Close race behind the scenes on this one.
Yeah, I'm thinking Lagoa is the safer choice. Plus, I think she was just vetted and approved by Senate for a lower court.
She was on the Florida Supreme Court and is now in the 7th circuit of appeals i believe. I can not find any record of her 2nd ammendment opinions though.
Remember the stack of protest signs with different names before Kavanaughs nomination was announced.
Somebody should get a picture of the protest signs with the names of the current potential SC justice picks.
I thought this exact thing about a week ago.
the ACB head hunting that's started here ONLY after the death of rbg is super suspicious. me thinks theyre lots of lefty shills pretending to be pedes on an influence operation. trump gonna pick ACB with the strong support of the whole republican senate and she'll be our next supreme court justice. and i'm not sad about it one bit you sudden shillfucks
I hope he is. There are better, more conservative options who will pass the senate easier
I'm inclined to believe this.
Seen in other posts that he will happen to announce on Saturday in Florida, where Barbara Lagoa happens to be residing.
Too much coincidence.
The announcement will be made on Saturday at the White House. Trump is visiting Miami on Friday I believe.
It'll be the one that locks up Florida. This is all to distract them.
Rudy......
Rico man Rudy.....
too old
No argument. I just think it would make their heads pop off their shoulders..
SSSSSSH, haven't gone vertical yet...
Headline: "Trump withdraws nomination of controversial Supreme Court nominee ACB"
WHAT?
Trump mess with the media?
He would NEVER...
Remember when he took a White House meeting with Mittens for Secretary of State. HAHAHAHAHA
Me!
Wondering if he'll go with the Hispanic pick.
It is not hard to tell.
The way these people work, as with most legal proceedings, is everything is worked out before publicly presented. That way it goes smoothly and with no surprises. If McConnel went around to Senators to secure their vote beforehand for ACB, that is what they are expecting, both the Rs who pledged their endorsement and vote, and the opposition who would not pledge.
If he threw in a surprise candidate for a nomination, he would throw all senators for a loop and would not guarantee the nomination. It may or may not pass, but it wouldnt be agreed upon before hand.
If his plan to nominate someone else other than ACB was true, he would have to have presented it to Senators before the nomination to secure their vote and swear them to secrecy. There are enough RINOs and non loyalists that such a secret would not be kept.
TL-DR: the SC judge nominee is going to be who he agreed to with Senators, no surprises otherwise he risks the approval.
This has been my thinking all along. We'll see if that pans out!
Give it to Rudy plz
As much as I like Rudy, I'd rather Trump give it to somebody who can stay on the bench for a few decades. Rudy is getting up there in years.
When does Trump do anything without a twist?
That makes no sense. If the threat of picking her riles them up so much, why not just pick her? Shes obviously qualified. Religon spreads over race and gender. They wont appreciate Dems going after someone over religon
The stupid media fall for it EVERY TIME! They are like a dog with a pork chop set down right in front of them.
Yep, I said this on Saturday (?) or whatever day she died. It won't be who you think.
I hear the final rehearsals of ACB accusers is going on. Let them all play it out before the real nominee is unveiled.
