Donald Trump had THREE Chances to Nominate a Minority to the Supreme Court

[1srelluc]

I would have liked to see him have picked a non-lawyer with some common sense. Maybe someone like Rand Paul.

Trump was looking to stack the court with Conservatives

Minorities would not go along with that

There are many conservative minorities that didn't mind going along with that. I realize in liberal land you only count certain minorities and not others. It seems the racists in the Democrat party are still getting their way.

I was doing a little thinking while listening to Dark Side of the Moon earlier - and it got me wondering. Donald Trump got THREE SCOTUS nominations - THREE chances to make history and put a minority on the SCOTUS. How come President Trump didn't take the opportunity to make history with a nomination?

He nominated the most qualified.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Because he couldnt find a conservative black woman with a legal degree.

You mean like the one Biden filibustered?

Most intelligent people would opt for the most qualified....

How come neither Trump nor Biden nominated someone with Downs syndrome? Why are they so discriminatory against folks with mental handicaps?

SO UNFAIR!!

If you really had a brain you'd realize there IS no dark side of the moon.

Because nominating a Justice isn't about "making history," Simp, it is about choosing the best person out there available who will preserve the integrity and intentions of our Founders in preserving the meaning of the US Constitution.

Sorry for you that usually ends up being a white man. Most of the minorities on the bench are there only because of affirmative action despite their inferior qualifications.

If there were

Republicans wouldn’t just nominate white guys

Like Clarence Thomas?

How many minorities did Obama, Clinton or Carter nominate?

Democrats want to stack the court with activists from the left.

Ive been pondering on this.
It strikes me as dumb politics for the GOp to oppose this appointment when it was a fight that they couldnt win. why

SO UNFAIR!!

So you equate being black with a mental illness. That explains a lot.

Did you feel the same way when Democrats fought Kavanaugh and Barrett?

It is smart politics. Senators are subject to a vote. Republicans only want qualified justices and will hold senators accountable when they vote for the obviously unqualified.

Pretty much. Its dumb politics. Save it for when you might make a difference. Making the best of it is a skill both sides need to work on.

 

[Staidhup]

So Biden picked to most qualified progressive liberal black women to sit on the highest court, really? Speaks volumes as to the talent pool of the Dim’s.

Thomas is a minority and so is Sotomayor. History has been made, you doofus.

He nominated a woman……

No she is not. She is going to let her personal beliefs influence her decisions. That is why she is there.
