Potentially. A far greater number than a president has had in years.



Retire you old farts. Conservative courts for a generation.

MAGA, a rule of law judiciary is a big part of it.

So Aimless has a chance 

This is so huge.  I really hope everyone understands how important this is.  MAGA

Can they be forced to retire?

You can blame Obama for this.

This!

The MAGA is overwhelming.

I feel like a college girl at Obungholes inauguration.

No, but the rule of 80, to make them eligible, means they are at least 65 with 15 years experience or 70 with 10 years, and so on.

Time vs the average lifespan of an American is not on their side if they want to enjoy any retirement at all.

The Left will deem these judges illegitimate.  As we go on,  I hope they have excellent security details.

SAF said the ones he has picked so far have all been outstanding on protecting Rights.

they did that with Gorsuch, many of them including Obama had said he was good, until it was time for scotus. then he was the debil.

Bigly!

MAGA, motherfuckers!!

Thanks I was coincidentally wondering about this today. Are we boned if there's no other SCOTUS nominations before 2018 elections should we get surprise losses?

More people need to understand this reality.

I fully expect Kennedy to retire next summer.

I still believe we stand to gain more states than we lose in the senate, next year.
@CarmelBytheSea This is the layout of the upcoming election. It would take a something profoundly catastrophic to blow gaining seats, in my opinion.
The house is a different matter entirely, however.

Current D seats of states Trump won entirely:
West Virginia, Trump won by 42 points
North Dakota, Trump won by 35 points
Montana, Trump won by 20.5 points
Missouri, Trump won by 19 points
Indiana, Trump won by 19 points
Ohio, Trump won by 8 points
Florida, Trump won by 1 point
Michigan, Trump won by .25 point
Pennsylvania, Trump won by .75 point
Wisconsin, Trump won by .75 point

Current R seats of states Trump lost:
Nevada, Trump lost by 2.5 points

Current R seats of states Trump won:
Wyoming, Trump won by 46 points
Tennessee, Trump won by 26 points
Nebraska, Trump won by 25 points
Mississippi, Trump won by 19 points
Utah, Trump won by 18 points
Texas, Trump won by 9 points
Arizona, Trump won by 3.5 points

Current D seats of states Trump lost:
Hawaii, Trump lost by 32 points
California, Trump lost by 30 points
Massachusetts, Trump lost by 28 points
Vermont, Trump lost by 26 points
Maryland, Trump lost by 26 points
New York, Trump lost by 21 points
Washington, Trump lost by 16 points
Rhode Island, Trump lost by 14 points
Connecticut, Trump lost by 14 points
New Jersey, Trump lost by 13 points
Oregon, Trump lost by 11 points
Delaware, Trump lost by 11 points
New Mexico, Trump lost by 8 points
Virginia, Trump lost by 5.5 points
Maine(at large), Trump lost by 2.5 points
Minnesota, Trump lost by 1.5 points

This, THIS is why I voted for Trump.  And why I would vote for any Republican senator in 2018.

With Trump we have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to change the direction of the federal judiciary, and we need to take full advantage of it.

If you look at the graph you see that Bush came in with a similar opportunity to fill empty seats.  16% vacancy, we could have really tipped the courts in a conservative direction.

Instead, for his first round of judges he re-nominated the Clinton picks who didn't get confirmed as a "goodwill" gesture after the Florida recount.

And the Republican Establishment wonders why we supported Trump over Jeb!

Those four more years will be critical to see the full change we need in the judiciary.

Thanks, will screenshot and take some time to look over. Spent an hour listening to Larry Kudlow today and he had some Democrat economist on that hates Trump BUT everyone agreed the economy including wage growth was a net positive. Ben Shapiro shit on the idea last week but I think the evonomy will be help for the 2018 elections but I'm always wary cause a year in politics and things could theoretically change

So glad it's not Hillary.

A hearing on six nominees is scheduled for this week, according to CNN.

MAGA

People need to listen to Bannon. A bunch of chicken littles were ready to give up on Wednesday because dems won in dem states, and the media said it's over

tl;dw: It is going to be a fight every day. Need to press on. Enough folding like a good little republican, like the dems like.

I think it literally will be a fight everyday, the left hasn't run out of steam to fight and I imagine playing up those elections is an effort to rally their troops. They're in shit talk mode and claim Alabama next and then the world but Donna Brazille came to San Francisco last week and said the Dem party is in disarray so how can it not be all about posturing and putting on a show. Interestingly more and more socialist articles have been featured in "mainstream" news this week, I posted a couple last night

Just finished the video. I think the last few minutes were the best.
That is to say, we are not going to get that shining moment of victory after a win. People need to stop feeling defeated because of the relentless attacks and refusal of our enemies to concede their baseless lies, because we are making progress.
They are trying to demoralize us by diminishing the value of our victories and bolstering the value of our enemies victories. The other side will always make it ugly, and we need to keep the pressure on to take the country back.
We get so bogged down in arguing pettiness for political talking point attacks, we lose sight of things like what this thread is about. Bigger picture battles that matter, like controlling the courts that get final say on 60,000 cases a year, only 80 of which the SCOTUS might hear.
