This SCOTUS scenario isn't good for trump

[Proud liberal 80]

I think a good percentage of people held their nose and voted for trump for one reason only.... the SCOTUS and the Scalia vacancy and it has worked out wonders for them because not only were they able to get that vacancy, they got two more with the latter changing the balance from 5-4 to 6-3. It’s so gravy for them, they are happy now. Trump is no good to them now.

He would have been better off saying “we should let the voters decide.” For one, those same voters would then come out for him. And two, he would have actually looked good to the MSM and moderates.....I am surprised he doesn’t even realize that McConnell and crew don’t care about him now, he served his purpose.

1. I agree with this.

2. And my guess is that they would much prefer

a "saner" Republican at the helm. Down in their deep dark hearts, they want to pretend that they want what's best for the American people, when all they really want is their own personal power. And $$$.

3. True, unless...

...he realizes his only chance is to get another SCOTUS vote before 11/3 to try to overturn the election results.

4. I agree.

5. Republicans know that if Roe is repealed, they'll lose a GIANT chunk of contribution$ from their

constituents.
Will they really kill the cash cow that has kept them going for decades? NRA money isn't going to rescue them now.

7. It's Always Going To Be An Issue For Them

They'll say they need money to fight to keep the new status quo.

6. I have thought the same thing if it would be better to wait

But he wants to gut Obama care
