    Well their theory was wrong. It doesn't help.

    You never said that until Trump was inaugurated, did you?

    But, to me the point is....why did anyone expect this dim witted man child to be a "populist" champion, a man for the working people? He is to fucking stupid to have informed opinions or substantive knowledge about how the government operates.

    It was always going to be a cast of the same old rightwing reactionaries behind the scenes making the decisions.
    I most certainly agree.

    This is the work of bannon, addleson, putin and a few others.

    The Trump administration is trying to stack the courts. The candidates he is putting up are getting very poor marks from the Bar aocc. So like the FBI, Trump attacks the Bar. They are corrupt, they are unAmerican. Nope, they are neutral and just judge the candidates. Trump offered up one for a judgeship who never tried a case in his life. However, trump thinks everyone should just do what he says. If they don't they are corrupt and crooked. We have a immature teenager for president.

    Why do liberals think the are entitled to power? Lose an election and all of a sudden we need to scrap the electoral college and lifetime appointments. Never heard liberals say that in 2012. Oh well

    How right you are. The more they whine and lie the better I like it.

    Qualifications are you have to be nominated by the president and approved by the senate. Except for the latest ones, the system has been reasonably good. Roberts, Gorsuch, and Thomas are terrible. The Repubs had to change the rules to get Gorsuck in.

    I thought the DEMOCRATS were the ones who did away with the filibuster process.

    You must be referring to Pascal's Wager and replying to someone I have on ignore.

    Pascal's Wager is bunk and has more flaws than Donald Trump (if that's possible). I do love to kick Christian butt on his absurd premise, however.

    I don't recall any comments from liberals about the suitability of Alcee Hastings for the federal bench.
