Play devil's advocate? Say today.."Bring it on"

Upside? If -45 brings up some anti-abortion anti-equal rights heathen...they would be defeated? Surely we would get enough Rep's to side with us ? It would make -45 and anyone who supported his crazy ass nominee look horrible. Just before November. Downside...we risk having him ( no way a woman) for our lifetime.

1. This is a risk to women's health and their lives.

Not some stupid gamble.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

2. So how many senators are we hoping to gain in November?

4. I don't know, but I'm doing all I can to fight against this atrocity.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

8. Of course! It's a

Pivotal moment in history ! Every decision we make is important. If I ruled our party I would get the best and the brightest on a secret weekend retreat -- people like Carville.. Obama, Clinton,. Maybe Schmidt if he'd agree,. Howard Dean. Some Obama campaign genuises. ( My opinion of the smart people )

3. I would prefer to know before the election as well

[Laura PourMeADrink]

5. Just trying to brainstorm here. We (sadly) might

Be in a more powerful position pre-senate election. We've got all those senators in trump states running fir reelection Just stating a fact not what we are striving for of course.

7. Trump's nominee will be approved, even if unqualified

I say offer some possible Democratic votes to get it out of the way if he nominated someone qualified well before the November election. I have even stated to offer just enough votes to get someone that is not qualified (Jeanine Pirro, Sarah Palin?) on the bench. Let that be the legacy of Trump and McConnell.

Of course, I would much prefer if there was any way to stop Trump from selecting the next Justice.

9. Tempting for sure. But it would be our lifetime and

Our children's lifetime. So u are pretty much saying screw it all and let it be his legacy? I want to understand where u are going with this

[Freethinker65]

11. I have no idea. I am just not overly optimistic

The Democratics need to get either the House or the Senate back. We still have a chance for both. My concern now is some Republicans that would have crossed party lines for the Senate just to insure checks and balances might instead just vote Republican now because of the Supreme Court (the makeup of the court will last far longer than the narcissistic charlatan in office).

[Laura PourMeADrink]

12. Good point! Man I just wish they would all

Move to a handful of states and form their own demented country. I would gladly move out of my red state I am stuck in now.

13. This

Senate map looks REALLY bad for us. We are defending a ton of seats.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

14. Yup. Guess if we see repukes "graciously" agree

To hold off...bingo...they have figured it out...more advantageous for them to wait. Plus none of them have to take an anti-abortion stand before election.

[Red Mountain]

6. It can get worse

and a lot of people are going to find out just how much.

We the people and corporations are people too are not compatible.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

10. Yup...we've got every business in the country happy

About their tax cut. If we run on repealing we might as well piss in the wind

[Laura PourMeADrink]

15. Still don't get why Dems are pushing to delay this ??
