A D president is expected to put liberals on the court just as a R president is expected to put conservatives. The fact is BO chose diversity in his liberal picks and racist Trump picked conservative white males as I stated from day one. Not one person would bet against that. I wonder why, NOT!!!
I just found a new supply of forks!

Does it take one to see one?
You tell me. Is it the same for an anti-Semite? :)

Here is your last chance to have me eat crow. Who wants to bet this racist president doesn't pick a white male? :)
I'm actually pretty surprised with the pick.

Didn't strike down ACA? Check
Anti abortion worked against him? Check

"Anti-abortion groups quietly lobbied against Kavanaugh, pushing instead for another jurist on Trump’s shortlist, 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Amy Coney Barrett, ABC News reported in the run-up to Trump’s announcement."

But he believes that a president shouldn't be indicted...check check

"Kavanaugh's work on the Starr report has been scrutinized by Republicans who have said it could pose trouble for the president as he negotiates with special counsel Robert Mueller over the terms of a possible interview related to Mueller's Russia probe. The 1998 document found that Clinton's multiple refusals to testify to a grand jury in connection with Starr's investigation were grounds for impeachment.
In later years, Kavanaugh said that Clinton should not have had to face down an investigation during his presidency. He has said the indictment of a president would not serve the public interest."

As stated previously, the reason that no one took on your bet is because the pool is tilted male, and if one believes that the POTUS is on a mission to put the most qualified person, that will serve for a long time, and will not disappoint, then said POTUS is expected to ignore irrelevant criteria such as gender and skin color.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Amy Coney Barrett had a good chance of not getting confirmed. Trump couldn't live with such a defeat. Look for her next time around or another white female.

Might be the same as it taking someone who might have been subjected to said real bigotry, being able to recognize it.

There is no such thing as most qualified when taking about SCOTUS and such a statement is silly.

If you are going to make such silly statements you should have stopped at 9pm. :)

ACA is pretty major to me. He could have picked someone else.

I am not disagreeing. Just pointing out why he didn't pick her at this time IMHO.

There can be up to 3 more in this term alone.

WOW! This gets me scared.

[tweet]1016488877928927232[/tweet]
So I propose that the Democrats offer the following compromise: Each Senate Democrat will pledge either to vote yes for Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation — or, if voting no, to first publicly name at least two clearly better candidates whom a Republican president might realistically have nominated instead (not an easy task). In exchange for this act of good will, Democrats will insist that Judge Kavanaugh answer all fair questions at his confirmation hearing.[/size][/color][/size]mmmhhhhhmmm
