What's this?

It's not just Kennedy

This is the reality that Trump will appoint at least two justices. Gorsuch was supremely qualified, and I've learned to never give up on SC justice. But it sucks that this is the guy who will get to stack the court for the rest of my life. RBG and Breyer could die any minute.

And it appears that believing you is not a wise idea. It seems that -- Hokie5150 06/29/2018 10:19AM

Only because you’re dumb enough to believe his nonsensical backpeddling. -- WahooRQ 06/29/2018 10:40AM
