Didn't watch the political theater, but the Democrats are certainly making your head explode.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Lets Go Darwin

So now we have some left leaning activists sounding like fools in the confirmation hearings and we have a President sounding like a fool in the White House and his staff/aides doing all they can to prevent him from doing things bc they know he is a fool.

True, Trump is a foolish buffoon.

Paul, what do you think about the way the Senate democrats kept interrupting and demanding a halt to the proceedings?

I think it is ridiculous that they were given 15,000? pages of docs. the night before. Why not give them a few days to review what they were given? I also believe they originally requested the same docs. that the Repubs. previously requested for other SCOTUS nominations but they haven't received them.

Winning the house won't help them with the Supreme Court. I don't see how they fail to win the house, but I'm only saying that because I keep hearing people say it, and those same exact people said Hilary was going to win in a landslide. But even Foxnews polling has the Democrats up big as far as the House goes.

I understand that...flipping the house and firing up impeachment is their only hope of stopping the trump train


someone should make an ad with video from these walking dead senators as a call and cry for term limits

Yes, he will get confirmed. Trump better pray they don't flip the house. It seems he is finally coming around to realize there is a chance of that happening.

If he gets impeached someone will become Pres. who is far more capable of getting things done.

My heads not exploding, just pointing out the bratty-like behavior of the senate democrats. They are the ones whose heads are exploding. I have no reason to get too upset, since Kavanaugh will get confirmed, and the senate democrats will show they aren't as different from Trump as they claim to be.
