If Trump appointed Judge Jeanine to the Supreme Court would the GOP Senate ratify her?







The president's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr. said on Wednesday that the idea of Fox News host Judge Jeanine Pirro succeeding Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy would be "pretty awesome."

"This would be pretty awesome," Trump tweeted, referencing another tweet that says, "Introducing Supreme Court Justice Jeanine Pirro."

She is female and unqualified (the male conservatives justices might not be too pleased as one, they are male conservatives, and two, she will be giving input on Court decisions as dictated to her by Trump himself and will thus demand more attention to herself and her "legal" (spoon fed?) arguments).

She is a TV reality personality that loves the camera and sparring with guests to a canned audience. Will she tire of the job and want to return to FoxNews for the applause and the paycheck?

Or, she may just find she does have something in common with Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Ginsberg.

He's going to pick someone from that list given to him by heritage/federalist society. They pretty much told him if he did that, they would walk through fire for him.
