Hart: Scotus Interruptus

Another Supreme Court justice, slightly right-of-center swing vote Anthony Kennedy, decided to retire. In a contentious and closely watched Supreme Court vote, the justices decided 5-4 to get him an ice cream cake for his retirement party.

So Trump got to appoint his second Supreme Court justice. Two on his “short list” were women. Trump undoubtedly fashioned his own special brand of decision making; this may have been the only Supreme Court vetting contest that had a swimsuit category.

This is a lifetime political appointment in Washington, D.C., much like being married to Bill Clinton.

Trump nominated Brett Kavanaugh, and the libs are preemptively enraged. In fact, anger is their only emotion. They never really seem to advance reasoned alternatives. They are either angry or asleep. We are just 500 days into this presidency, so Maxine Waters and Chuck Schumer had best pace themselves.

The left howls when Trump does anything. They say it is the worst thing Trump has ever done – until he does something tomorrow. Crying “wolf!” at everything has diminished their credibility.
